I totally agree. I wished there was others out there with that view... I think FFXI would be that much more fun than it already is. If people were considerate towards others^^

well i sorta skipped over the last part of the first page so I might have missed something..
but you seem like a very laid back and relaxed person and i think that Shiva is a great place.
serveral people in my LS have hopped all around the servers and they think that Shiva is by far the most relaxed. people just get together and have fun.
:)
good luck with everything though, if I'm too late.

No not too late ^^; this thread I started asking for an opinion has really made me think alot, even the Jaerik sent me best wishes when he found out I was sick ^^; (would have been better to see it here XD) after reading so many emails and so many posts from genuine caring nice people that at least for a few taps of a keyboard stopped being in game avatars and became human - I wish I could just grab you all up into the same place XD. I even calculated the price of putting a mule in all of your servers so I could at least in a way please everyone ^^; Odin is full no doubts about it at all - alot of people have told me their transfer experiences and how they can't leave their friends, I understand that quite well, because by chosing a new server I am leaving every other kind hearted offer made by each of you behind, no different to me than the accounts of leaving friends behind and regreting it later. So what do I do now?? I have no idea :/ and Vex please accept my thanks for your well wishing ^^ you have joined a growing group of ffxi fans that put the character down for a minute ^^;

Fairy Server
Out of Carbuncle ( noobs and *** ) ,Garuda ( Monotone flow ) , Odin ( Better than you Attitude ) , Bahamut ( We got more gil , we better than you ) , and Phoenix ( ooooo we all think you are a noob cuz you new to the server )
FAIRY = Balance ( some *** , some NICE ppl ) mostly Veterans , but we help you and we help "noobs" become veterans
well , the choice is your after all
be my guest , do W/e u wish
but in the end , you gotta admit : NO ODIN , NO BAHAMUT , DEFINALLY NO CARBY

Lol, Marigrim, you sure are one in a million! I'm glad you received a lot of positive responses, it just goes to show that humanity isn't lost to self-centeredness just yet, hahahahaha~ ;D
Just wanna let you know you are in my prayers, I do hope you can find some sort of peace in your time of struggle^^ You've got a positive point of view on life, that's rare to find these days, but very refreshing to see. = )

I didn't read but the first post :D yeah im lazy most because english is my second language ahaha xD
just one thing... even if the server sux there can be 1 single person that makes you love it. And you will never think about leaving, an example can be a bunch of good friends wich is my case, i dont know if my server sux or not coz i have never changed server but i dont think i will never want that because my friends are irreplaceable.
Good luck on what you do :D

Well, since it is quite difficult to choose when so many people offer...
put pieces've paper in a hate for each server your considering and choose one :D LET FATE DO IT FOR YOU!!!!!! O_O;;
and then you can self doubt yourself at the end and choose the one you really wanted but didn't know until you chose the wrong one :P
(Which is Asura, no? ^^)
Good luck~

Heh, with so many responses it's gonna be hard for you to choose now, eh? ;s I like Sidi's response lol. Maybe you should just try that!
Just remember, there's always going to be someone/people you won't get along with on every server. You seem like a really nice, relaxed guy. I'm sure you'll make some good quality friends wherever you end up. Like everyone else has said, take care of yourself and I hope you'll be happy with your final decision :) Now where are my HQ rods at. Lol jk

I will be transfering @ the first of December - any other thoughts and ideas are welcome, and to the contributers thus far I thank you. Many are right about staying in their servers for their friends but the nomads that have flooded odin recently have no become too much to bear. For what time I will be able to play I'll spend it making new friends, or perhaps being the random wall flower I have become now so well known for being. Anyhow I look forward to the last week of posts before transfering I hope there will be many more as your insite has been beyond helpful. Kiriyu said: You seem like a really nice, relaxed guy. Yes umm.. about that XD you're a little off just um.. slightly D: Mari~

Bartimaeus said: Not too late is it? :P I'd just like to toss the [ Pandemonium ] chip in there. Sure, I could try to entice you into moving by saying were all veterans or we help noobs or this or that like some other places..cough.. but that's VERY MUCH what you want to avoid. The useless banter. Pandemonium is on the smaller side, and I'd like to think I know some of it well enough after 3 years to say its been 90% a good time, 5% bleh, and 3% cookies, and 2% milk (do-do ch!). Why would you deny cookies?????!!!!!!! To that 40% gameplay rating*: bwahaha. :D lol how could I not accept that chip with a smile?? thank you very much! *^^;

Well, since it's not too late, I have to throw in the Lakshmi card. We got a nice smallish server here. A fair amount of endgame lses (which you're not interested in) 1 server transfer botting HNMls (the subject of pretty much all server drama) and alot of good people. I'm sackholder in a social ls devoted to helping people, been going for 3-4 years. We do what we can. If you transfer over here hit me up with a tell and I'll throw you a linkpearl. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck and better health for whatever may happen in the future. You seem like a very nice and generally good person, and that's hard to find nowadays.

Um, why not make a mule and try a server for a few days/weeks before commiting? Sure, Jeuno is dead for the most part, but I'm sure you can get a general idea of how people will be.
Unless you judge a server by it's Aht Uhrgan shouts.

Unless you judge a server by it's Aht Uhrgan shouts. I avoid white gate when I can, and yes I have been to quite a few servers recently on mules just poking around here and there for a few hours. It's hard to really get an idea of a servers general personality but I can catch little things here or there - and yes in the end it's a game, but in the end it's the people on the playing field that make the game what it is. Thanks everyone transfer day is coming fast lol and I am still at a loss so let's hope I make a good choice

I Started game on Gilgamesh and gotta say it was a very friendly place when i was there for a few months, Leviathan is the same made lots of great friends in valkurm dunes i still play with today.
Seems to be some good advice on this thread lol have thought about changing servers a few times b4 but felt the friends i had were worth staying for, would only move if they did.
Really hope everything works out for you Mari, peaople that do random funny things are awsome lol im sure you'll make a lot of friends where-ever u choose to go

I recommend Hades for a server I think we are under populated and prices for some stuff I think are a little high but then again what server doesnt have that.. if You need a LS if you want to transfer let me know Ive got a very nice social been up and running for more then 2 years now (I joined it 2 years ago) and I can get you in touch with a couple different event LS if your interested too .. I just like posting ... : )
I've been playing FFXI for (I won't say a long time but a while) Obviously I am on odin atm. Between the price war on the AH, the severe over population and all the issues that come with that I decided to retire had been a good run I thought. I am editing my post, I think my personal health problems should stay personal. I will say I made a return to the game because I have become ill, and it won't be resolved for quite sometime. I just want some information; I am not asking for a friend or any help or a LS or anything. I miss the days when the game was more or less an enjoyable experience, I know every server has issues hell they all do, but if there is a server out there that is just kinda there and unremarkable let me know, would love to visit. I am not saying friends aren't welcome btw ^^; I am just not a needy player - I.e. linkshell, personal contacts, dynamis membership etc.. you've all seen the posts for such things I am sure. I am unremarkable myself quiet and craft alot :D I don't really play I just enjoy the music and doing weird random things like standing in ranfaure crafting HQ rods for ppl that run by in onion gear D: (aka. noob rescue) that is if your sever can handle another random wallflower (*^^;
