Whereas I agree it would be nice to have another server, or even a smaller one, for people who enjoy smaller communities, it doesn't take away the majority of (new) roleplayers want to join the big hubs, or else just... not join the game at all.
If I were to come to this game purely for roleplay, I'd never continued if Balmung was locked. Just because we are safe and well on Balmung doesn't mean we shouldn't try to stress to SE that this is of importance to our roleplay community that it doesn't remain locked. Like it or not and even if people might not care about new people joining us, we need a heap of various types of roleplayers to fuel the community with new ideas, stories and what not.
People also somehow seem to think because we all are roleplayers we like roleplaying with one another on top of that. As we all know, that's really not the case. I'd claw my eyes out if I were forced onto a server with a heap of fanon NPC rpers, and that being the only roleplay available.
Anyhow... They really will need to come up with a better long term solution, in case they will use the 'temporary' lock as a not so temporary one.
