Don't read this as an attempt to convince Gil players to come to Balmung.
It's not, I'm done trying to convince Gil players of that.
Instead, consider this a post of enlightenment. No matter how often it's been said, no matter how much the Balmung players make it known and act on it, there is this.. -BELIEF-, this.. Idea, this.. Misconception.
Selsix put it in the best way. She described the Balmung server as a bus that may or may not stop to pick her up.
You know what that says to me? That she sees us a server she can't fit in to. That we're full, that we don't want to pick her up and welcome her in.
WTF have we been saying? The -exact opposite- of that. We want to pick her up. All the RPers. Everywhere. We want to pick them all up, and welcome them in.
That's WHY this argument is here.. I, and I'm sure it's a deeprooted thing for other Balmung players that continue the debate, feel like some of the Gil players are calling us a lot of things we're not. Closeminded, unwelcoming, elitist, being some of those.Â
I mean.. We'd welcome the RPers from the Reddit community. They RP? Cool! We'd love to have them. Would we welcome to Reddit community as a whole? Probably not, no.. Well, I can't speak for the whole on that one. I wouldn't particularly like the entire reddit community coming over, but I'd love to see the RPers coming. I think they should have the option, I think it should be made known they have options - Niether of which is any less welcoming.Â
I mean.. I don't know how many times we have to say it. We are, literally, laying at non-Balmung players feets, saying "Hey, how much more welcoming can we be?"
I could go back into how the 50's and such shouldn't affect anyones game, but.. That's a fact that should be known by now too. The fact that content will make high-levels the same level as the low-levels to do it. The fact that a lot of the high levels will be rerolling low level alts to play the content, so the high levels existence doesn't even really matter untill others get up there as well. The fact that it'll be a week or two before there are 50's on every server out there.Â
