I'm new to the forums here and plan on RP'ing. It is nice to see there is a site where those who wish to RP in Final Fantasy A Realm Reborn (and the previous v1.xx) have to get together and talk outside of game.
The only negative I have seen in my weeks shadowing the site (was very shy about signing up and posting) is this whole Server vs Server discussion. As the above poster mentioned this really is starting to look a bit like random youtube discussion which goes no where. It is a bit upsetting to see such a silly topic dividing people; at least it is coming across as a community divided.
I've done plenty of RP'ing in video games and MMOs in my time and I know how frustrating it can be when people interfere just to be jerks, or you get trolled. Even on dedicated RP servers it happens. While it is nice to have a community focused in one spot, there is nothing wrong with a community spreading out especially at the rebirth of a game. The BASE subscription model allows you to create characters on up to 8 servers. Create a character on Balmung, Gilgamesh, etc.
We should be working together and helping one another out, not debating which server or why one is better than the other. So please, lets just work together here. People want to go here, others want to go there. Okay... the end? Embrace the feelings of others and the fact this is a rebirth of the game. Both communities can share ideas and be just as strong together.
