Alright, you've touched on most of the major issues, Castiel, and that said, I'd like to respond to them as far as my guild is concerned. (Not speaking for the players - just the structure of my guild in general.)
Neutrality and Authority
I really, really do not think it should be the RPC's place to intervene within the guilds. For any reason, really. I understand your example about a certain guild touting themselves as the best - and well, that was poor etiquette, but I do not think that such behavior should really result in any authority ousting a role-play guild.
There is no doubt that a group will pop up here and there that will annoy some, or indeed, most of the community, but unless this group was actively trying to hurt or destroy multiple guilds in some manner (which would be a failure, I believe,) I can't think of a situation in which the coalition should be powered in which to step in.
The Public
I think I am going to need some more examples of how The Public feels the RP Community is closed off. I'm not sure I understand.
Events and Certain Standards
Having read through everyone's examples and ideas, I am more comfortable with this. At least to allow for very generalized guidelines in group events.
Structure
The (Lost Boys) - new name to come - are already working on an internal structure that will assign one person as a delegate to other organizations. I believe that having that person also be a delegate to the RPC would be a perfect idea.
