I personally don't care, I'll RP anywhere, but seriously I don't think I've seen that much defensive stance over a fictional city in RP since people were being Undead apologists way back in Vanilla WoW.
Is this bit really necessary? It seems unnecessarily harsh and unneeded. Especially since it seems the general consensus isn't that disliking Ul'dah is some big personal affront. In fact, there has been quite some discussion about the pros and cons of Limsa Lominsa taking place. Not to mention the general consensus seems to be as you said earlier in your post - that there are people RPing in Limsa and Gridania (and now Ishgard). Whether or not they frequent the RPC is an irrelevant point - it's a matter of them being there and hopefully available to RP with.
And I personally see it less of a "defensive stance" than providing my opinion to what sounded originally like a generally broad statement that Ul'dah and the areas around it are categorically the worst places to have RP in Eorzea. I feel that it is not. Is that being super-defense about Ul'dah?
