I have to ask, have you ever played another MMO? If so, which?
WoW had multiple vibrant RP hubs, Moonguard was well known, but Wyrmcrest also eventually became well known. My server, Emerald Dream, had a big RP community, there was RP everywhere and I was on Horde. Silvermoon was so, so crowded with RPers. Since mine was an RP-PVP server we had less RPers than the first two, but it was still vibrant, I ran into RPers ALL. THE. TIME. I don't think any RP server wanted for RP?
I've also seen the inverse. In Aion, we had to designate one RP server, as foreign games tend not to make RP tags on server, when we did, the population was still rather small. That having to Kowtow to the server thing was pretty prevalent there and it was the only option for RPers. It wasn't a huge community, but it was the only community and you had to fall in line.
Balmung really is a completely different monster than anything we've ever seen.
