As someone who rarely ever visits anymore I'll just state why. Drama. Drama and from what it was at the beginning, judgement. People were quick to look at something and judge it without really giving it a chance. Drama between linkshells began and others stepped out. Over time the RPC became a place that people had thought of as elitists who governed RP their ways and shunned you if you thought otherwise. This isn't my view on it, but from what I have heard as well as to why others wouldn't use it. For me personally it was due to a plan regarding playing a character out as a Miqo'te male. Majority of the community back then shunned it, I even got private messages saying "You do this and we won't RP with you" and ultimately I scrapped the idea. Nearly 7 months later I said to hell with it and did the plan. As it turns out people were actually supportive of it and loved the idea. Had I not listened to the community back then and done what I had initially done I wouldn't have created a character I wasn't happy with and ultimately deleted later on.
The issue back then was everyone was trying to make specific "standards" on what should be allowed, and how it should be done without giving it a chance. This likely became as to why others left the RPC or no longer use it. But back on the topic (Sorry for a major rant there.) having an LS leader section I think would be a bad idea. I can't honestly state why, but reading some of the reasons people have there I'd have to agree. Overall however, I'm undecided on it.
