I'm in that boat right now. I was really bummed that I didn't get into the EA because I had only payed for 2 months of subscription back in 1.0, the 27th rolls around and I finally get to play. Or so I thought.
Turns out I'm going to have to sit here looking at my character and refreshing the world information until next week.

When their way of "enjoying the game" is going AFK and denying others the opportunity to play, I will most certainly hold it against them.
It doesn't really matter if it's the only way to guarantee a slot on a server. They're essentially saying "To hell with everyone that isn't me." and no matter your reasons, that's a shitty thing to do.
No single person can fix this problem on their own. But you can certainly decide whether or not you want to be part of the problem.
Hey, man, that really sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. I've been waiting to make my main but I can always hop on my alt if I get too bored, so at least I have that luxury. You can always try during the low-pop hours, though so far it hasn't really worked for me. Also, last night Sargantas went down for a bit and character creation went back up because no one knew the server had come back up yet. So you can always hope Balmung crashes. Other than that you're pretty much out of luck until next week or until SE implements an auto-kick function.
As for your response to Magellan's post,
I agree with every single word of that, pretty much.
