As said above, Balmung is still going very strong and there are many RP events. Though I have noticed a lot of RP has moved to Kugane, the Quicksand is still populated and Crescent's beach bash was huge. Some players are still playing through expansion content, but the login queues aren't even a thing anymore.

There doesn't appear to be. My friend got disconnected and he got back in immediately. I hope it lasts!

I logged in around 5PM EST and there was a queue of 26 in comparison to the usual 3,000. Here's hoping!

Welcome to the game! Personally, if I was in your position I would keep your main on your current server, but also make another character on Mateus if you feel like you would do well in the community. This way, when Square Enix announces which servers will be getting the transfer bonuses you will have a pre-established character to transfer for free to reap the rewards.

Welcome to the RPC! Always feel free to ask questions and say hello. Everyone here is great!

Hello there! U'kijah also has very tribal tendencies and behaviors. She is no longer a member of her tribe, but loves to interact with others who understand what Seeker culture is like. She also loves to learn about other tribes' unique customs and cultures. Feel free to message me on here, or if you see me in game feel free to say hello!

Welcome back to FFXIV and welcome to the RPC! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time, and feel free to ask questions!

Welcome back to FFXIV and welcome to the RPC! There are great people here and don't hesitate to ask questions or set up RP with others!

Welcome to the RPC! My RP times are spotty, but I have a rather nerfarious huntress that Lance might happen upon for a hunt. Feel free to send a message, and of course welcome to Balmung!

Well, thank you, Cynnie. I appreciate the warm welcome! I need your help, if you would assist. Are there any "need-to-know" threads or articles I should read before entiring into FFRP? How about informative, yet not necessary information I could look over? Again, I appreciate the welcome and any assistance. Haha~ I think that one of the best threads that you can check out would be Sounsyy's lore compilation which can be found here as well as the general lore questions there here. These can give you more ideas about RP and anything from Sounsyy is a fantastic resource. I say just poke around using the search tool for any topic that you fancy and there is likely a myriad of things that will come up. Was there anything in particular that you had questions on? Another important thing is that if you are really into wanting to try RP, there is no other place like Balmung. There is a server transfer cost of $18, but you can bring 8 characters over at once to make the most of that money. The server is essentially 'permanently closed' but the server transfer bypasses that. There are just so many people that you can find any RP that you like!

Welcome to FFXIV and the RPC! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time and be sure to ask questions if you ever have any!

Welcome to FFXIV and the RPC! If you have any questions always feel free to ask. I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time!

Welcome to the RPC AND RP! It sounds like you're going to have a wonderful time. I think, as mentioned before, feel free to watch others rp and don't hesitate to reach out and take a look at people's profiles. That can help you get an idea of RP! Sending messages to people here to set something up has always worked out well for me! Again, welcome!

Welcome to FFXIV and the RPC! The posters above have given great advice, and always feel free to ask questions!
