I agree that there needs to be some etiquette adhered to going forward in order to minimize confrontations/competition. But that's probably something that's going to be difficult to enforce...especially with all of the very passionate people we have in the community.
The original plan was to merely separate the Events section of the forum into two subsections: "Balmung Events" and "Gilgamesh Events." That was really the extent of any plans. And perhaps the same was to be done with the Leaders' Roundtable. Upon further examination, these plans /may/ be altered to better fit the needs of this community. No promises on these plans changing though, but the staff here will discuss and examine the matter thoroughly and figure out the best course of action as soon as possible.
I don't like the idea of possibly removing the "hub" feel to the forums, and I certainly don't think each server needs its own art section, off topic section, ffxiv discussion, etc. On the other side of the coin, we don't want to have to constantly deal with passive-aggressive remarks from either server to the other in certain red zones like the RP discussion forum. Thus, we will examine what's best for the community as a whole and get back to everyone ASAP.
In the meantime, we do ask that everyone remain respectful to one another, as that's always been rule #1 around here.
