I really don't think designating official RP servers is going to turn them into 'backwaters'. The official RP server I'm on in WoW is bustling with activity and there are plenty of PVErs/PVPers as well as RPers who PVE/PVP. I'm not even in a RP guild on my server; I'm in a raiding guild.
That said, it's also quite true that GW2 doesn't have official RP servers and the RP community hasn't struggled at all.
I'm not bothered either way. If they create official RP servers and offer free transfers, I'd consider going, but if they don't, I'm still happy where I am.
