They probably implemented a policy to never delete old names because they didn't want new people creating those names and missing out on possible experiences as a result. It's not really relevant in this day and age, but at the onset of the game in the early days it would have been solid reasoning.

Imagine pretending the blist means anything on modern day Asura, where players literally have to use an addon to filter out the garbage because there's so much of it...

Yeah, it's the same overall reasoning, you just took my example one step further. Player reputation is tied to a name, and they didn't want one person sullying theirs and then leaving, only for another to later recreate it and encounter unpleasant experiences as a result.

Unfortunately, SE betrayed any such concept by opening up paid server transfers years ago. Now your reputation means ***unless you become infamous in the larger XI community. Since player warnings aren't allowed on most of the active community sites, you really have to *** up for that to happen.

According to one recently banned Valefor botter, using a chat filter addon is equal to botting.

I think the best way Lakshmi has been described on here is its basically SE's version of Ohio.

An abnormal amount of celebrities grew up here, but no one wants to admit it.

Does this mean it's finally time to be able twist Lak into an up and coming English community nearly 20 years into the game's history?

My bell is ready to ring in the new friends.

Relax guys. The server is only full because I've activated my 1500 Ambuscade alts to soak up currency since this month is so easy. I'll delete them all and you can have your server back next month.

Maybe >.>

Greetings, everyone.
FINAL FANTASY XI Producer Matsui here.

We have confirmed that new characters cannot be created on the Asura World due to the World reaching its maximum character capacity. To address the situation, we are planning to increase character capacity limits in the version update maintenance scheduled for Monday, October 11.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience until the issue is addressed.

Of course they wouldn't keep it closed, they make a decent amount of money off the transfers.

NB4 they come up with a fix that makes it cost more to have characters on Asura. Legend of Balance, indeed.

Imagine having a rule in FFXI that if you got too close to other players they would ban you from the game, that would be too crazy..you only get things like that irl.
