Started on Gilgamesh just to spend some time with some friends (despite having old characters), and I was met by some hostility as well. ![Sad Sad](https://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/mybb18/images/smilies/sad.gif)
Finally convinced my friends to go on Balmung (by saying I'd make a new toon as well), and surprisingly I have not seen a single troll. Just questions being asked, and very kind responses (Limsa Territory). Saw a few random RPers as well, in addition to getting asked politely several times if I wanted to team up for FATEs.
Probably the best community I've ever seen, even by 1.0 standards (though I only played a single character from one to twenty before running into system errors). The only "bad" name I've seen was someone named "Darth Vader", but he was very nice and no fights broke out that I saw.
The only problem I'm getting now is that I can't make any new characters on there, and we all had ideas to start new characters again. But I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who reads this that is on Balmung, in addition to rooting people on who have to establish a new community on a new sever. Hang in there and I'm sure you'll be accepted or acclimate to the culture that is coming in from all types of different games.
