You're right. I tend to be over the horizon, long distance what-ifs person and sometimes can't see the shit right under my nose. I just want this endeavor and whatever else to do well.
I've been fairly active or lurking from the moment I joined RPC. Since then, I've seen people turn to other places from Balmung. People will post free company or linkshell infos for their communities. Eventually, through a various amounts of reasons, people will trickle away or back. I've seen people upset because communities have stagnated or too insular that the other players feel that things are too clique-ish. Things seemingly held up strong because of a few pillars and end up collapsing so once again it's seemingly a struggle from the ashes. Nothing has flourished and blossomed yet with bounties of fruit.
This is -not- to demean any of the communities who have tried, are living, or will continue to be tried. It's my honest opinion that there's so much strength in being able to gather each of these communities and bring them together, so that the reliance of the health of the community is not solely on a few leaders or a singular group. I just don't think it's good to, in the end, say "Here's the few you can go to" whereas there can be the new RP server, designated and chosen with the best possible efforts and information we can. One of which those efforts is yes, including any possible Balmung communities to join as well as consolidating other server groups.
