RP-ing and such...Follow

Hi guys! Goji here with a question for everyone.

For those of you who don't know: I have never finished a FF game in my life. The only thing close is KH, which is upsetting.

But I have learned many new stuff about monsters and themes of FF worlds, however, I don't know what this world has to offer. I know extensive knowledge about FF but I don't know the story of this MMO as i should because i never played the Version 1. So my question is:

"What are the requirements for RPing in a FF MMO?

I ask this because the wiki pointed out a "unofficial" RP server called "Besaid" and generally I like a good story so my hope is that it does become a RP server. Yet, I have tried RPing in SWTOR and it did not work out. So I'm thinking instead of knowing THE FORCE, I have to focus on a much larger realm of information and rules to RP. So if you have questions about this question please ask. If you have an answer...please let it be a list of requirements. Anyone can answer but if your beta and your already doing it, it would help out if you gave me some pointers.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me out! :)

This is Goji signing off, Kupo!

I too am interested in RPing in-game and if we could get a group going i would love to be apart of it

Gilgamesh is the unofficial RP server for the RPC forums. Realistically, it's between Behemoth and Gilgamesh with Behemoth in the lead.

Universal Poll(view)

Strictly RPC Poll
I say strictly, because you need to register and wait for activation to Vote.

And the RPC poll isn't a joke? it was posted in the beta forums in hopes to increase their votes, yet from the time it was posted to the time it closed, there was no significant change to the poll what-so-ever. That being because you had to go through the registration process(however miniscule it could be) Just to land a vote even if you never visit that forum again. From that time, the votes for Behemoth had only gone up by 1 or 2 points. Even if you went through the Beta post, the 30 people posting Vote Behemoth were never even added into that RPC poll.

Why do you think the total vote count is so low? I'm not denying the advertisements you put out for the poll, but if the target group wasn't directed to only RPC members, the difference in the vote count would have been greatly different.

Honestly, I'm still undecided on what server I will join(RP or not), and though I will probably never use it, I will keep my 1.0 character on Excalibur. Also, numbers do make a difference when you are reaching out to a community that can't reach back. e.g. Advertising to a community that needs to register to vote but can't or don't want to register.

BTW, I did try to register to vote last month, but even though my account is created, it still isn't activated. Not that I care to activate it anymore.

Every forum I join, I set to automatic log in every time I visit. I know the account it created, but every time I went to vote, it would always say your account is not activated.

I recently opened the forum to check the voting status

Unfortunately, kupos, im new to this game but still want to follow the main storyline even if it has changed since version 1.

So second question....

Which server? Legacy or Non legacy?

Honestly I would say non-legacy. Though legacy will be populated, not so much in the lowbie zones(at least from what I've seen during beta). There is also quite the number of Legacy players who have chosen to start fresh on the Non servers. So on Non legacy you will have new and old players all starting on common ground, as well as a very fresh economy.
