I'm so confused by all of this. Balmung and Gilgamesh communities are equal in my book.
from an RP / Lore perspective it makes sense as well if you think about it.
You have those which fall into the old shifted 5 years into the future (ARR) and those which are brand new as the era of Adventurers starts to thrive... Balmung , Gilgamesh.
Based on Lore, new toons should role on Balmung to stick with the lore... but at the same time said concept only is good for about 2-3months and you'll have 50's everywhere.
In short... Both servers are fine. Work as a community here people. You can roll on "both" servers. The thing is we all have a difference of opinion. What should be going on is we all respect one another's opinions and move on. Instead we're squabbling over it in spots and it is rather embarrassing.
Balmung is Legacy. Established community with established LinkShells , Free Companies, etc. It is open to all to join and I am quite certain the Balmung community would love to see new players. However I see lots of new players branding Legacy servers as unfair advantages and branding Legacy players.
On the flipside you have Gilgamesh... a new server with fresh opportunities. Who knows how it will turn out but people will be able to establish their own thing on the server. New linkshells, new friends etc.. Some people have legit concerns about Legacy servers and might not want to give it the 2-4 months needed to catch up to everyone else.
My issue with all this is why people have this "all or nothing" attitude. Why is it.. Balmung OR Gilgamesh. As many have pointed out, including myself, you can make characters on up to 8 servers. Ontop of that, so what people want to go to A instead of B. It isn't like they have said "I'm going to A and never showing my face here ever again?" Be a community. Think of it as a guild that has so many members it has to make two guilds.
The guild fills up...The guild leader often takes the 2nd in command and has them make their own guild and you end up with two guilds. People join one or the other... You share the same webpage, same info, but you have two separate banks, two separate raid rotation groups etc. Be a community... we are all a team here.
Now everyone smile and watch the cute baby-bunny!!
