I played a bit on Nasomi on and off over the years, I survived the gilpocalypse, a certain LS zone crashing for missed NM claims, survived my character being hacked and all my items stolen, I bought gil from governor using RMT lol, sold my own gil and character eventually (right after camping an NM for weeks and finally outclaiming topshelf). Lived the whole nasomi life. I have nothing but praise and admiration for Nas, dudes a beast (and sorry for breaking your rules, needed money desperately when my wifes car broke down), however one thing that always rankled me, even though it didn't make all that much of a difference was knowing that some people that were on the server from the very get go had access to essentially free dynamis and handfuls of relics.
The server seems amazing now with a huge population and it's been what, 6 years?
Will there ever be plans to release a 2nd nasomi server? Same ruleset and everything just a fresh start in 2019 or 2020 or whatever. I would kill to experience what it'd be like to start FF11 on day one and how crazy all that must be with a decent size population. I'm sure there isn't, and I may be unique in even hoping to see something like that, but hey, why not ask and watch a bunch of people melt down at me in the comments?
Eventually all good things come to an end. A 2nd server won't be successful.
Nasomi will eventually turn into a server like WoW private servers where the majority of the population will be over lv. 60 and mostly doing endgame stuff. Dunes parties will be more challenging to make if people don't make alts or if there isn't a constant influx of new players joining the server (or being banned and returning to keep the FFXI life cycle alive).
My .02 cents.
