First off, obligatory "Flames are not law enforcement but we will still break up your brawls if need be" statement.
Second, do not start a brawl in such a populated and well-patrolled area as the Quicksand unless you are willing to accept any IC consequences that come your way short of dictated-character-maiming-or-death.
Third, be mindful of what level of authority any particular governmental branch has. I'm not sure how it would work in Limsa or Gridania (though I have ideas), but in Ul'dah any Flame, Sultansworn, or Brass Blade can break up your fight, and technically speaking any of those three can have you temporarily incarcerated, but barring a threat to the Sultanate, only Blades can hold you for more than a short stay, and only Blades can levy criminal charges at you... and thankfully, as previously mentioned, you can bribe your way out of consequences if you get taken in by the Blades.
Fourth, be prepared to be drowned out by chat spam, regardless of whether those people decide to get involved or not.
I think that about covers everything that's already been said better by others. Whoops.
