The thing about unofficial RP servers is that they won't happen if people don't actively go and make them. If everyone waits, it won't happen.

It could be. Luckily, these servers are open and an alt can always be made to check them out, do some shouts, preview the markets, etc. Then, if you do find people, you could then transfer in a more permanent character.

This....is like wishful thinking. It's probably not going to happen soon, if at all within the next few months. Balmung's got an active population that is supposedly double that of the next most active server. While the transfer incentives may get a few people off, I don't forsee the server opening and staying open for a pretty long time. We've been experiencing closed character creation since the middle of 2.0. ...the kinda-forced transfers thing started after 3.0, which made the problem worse.
