Thanalan not as much, but as far as actual different RP you can do Ul'Dah it doesn't offer a lot, and that's having been there for like 6 months. Gridania is up there as far as having nothing really to do but at least what they do have lore wise you can actually access. You literally can't even get to Ul'Dah's biggest attractions, they're literally walled off. They don't even give you the courtesy of like NPC's fighting below on some predetermined loop. Its just empty and walled off with some people standing above it scoffing at poor people.

Please be nice. Bashing on people's choice of RP hub isn't cool, yo.

These types of threads pop up every now and again. The general consensus is that people generally -like- Ul'dah for any variety of personal opinions.
I've seen ongoing Tavern-style RP going on (and have contributed some) at the Drowning Wench the last few days. It doesn't nearly have the same population.
It really comes down to a few things, in my experience:
- People will go where there's a large group to find new/fresh contacts.Â
- People are less willing to publicly RP in an uncrowded area
- People have their own opinions on what settings they like
- People need to be interested in an area to RP in it
So....I'll ask this. Why should I RP somewhere else? What makes it more attractive to RP in? Reasons against Ul'dah will be rejected. What makes the other places just as good or better?
