Hmm. There are some good points in here that I had not considered, particularly RPC's history. I apologize for being insensitive.Â
With admin input being a definite no for this, and some good points in that direction besides, I think there is a lot more we could be doing to help new RP communities spring up. I do feel that aid is needed in that situation, even if many of you feel that it 'isn't up to us.' Many of the folks who have created the communities in my OP are new to RPC or were at the time. It's a high expectation to expect someone who is completely new to the site, and the RPC community, to instantly be able to work up the courage to be as assertive as the leadership or well-established members here, and by doing so, organize a community in the way this thread is implying. It is easy to worry about over stepping your boundaries when you just registered.
If I may offer a suggestion, I believe this thread is a bit outdated:Â http://www.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthr...p?tid=2632
The title is ambiguous. If I was googling 'ffxiv rp' and didn't really care to join RPC, how would I know to look here for the server information?Â
Next, the content of this thread could be improved by removing 'Other Servers' and adding the names of the servers I listed in my OP with links to their linkshells. In order to promote the goal that RPC is a space for all RP servers, not just Balmung, the word 'Other' should just be left out entirely.
