My honest advice for you is that you need to put more effort in as a leader. From the outside things appear disorganized at best. Your FC advertisement is full of broken code and just looks messy. Do you have a FC website (Discord does not count)? If so put the link somewhere. That is what will draw people in to learn more about you. Prospective members usually want to see that the group they are joining is stable and run by people that care. Do your own research. Google is an amazing thing that will tell you about getting a house and how much they cost on FFXIV - currently there are exactly 0 available on Balmung, unless you want to pay many many millions more than the actual cost for someone to relinquish land. You can find signature generators and artists via Google, as well.
Balmung and Gilgamesh are your best places to find RPers, and both are pretty locked down. That's the nature of the game here, however. If you move to another server you *might* find a small pocket of RPers to rope in, but it will not be anything like your current server as it stands today.
Also keep in mind the advice I gave you before. Continue to evolve your FC into something that is entirely unique. Move away from having things mirror other groups, otherwise you will run into the issue of prospective members wondering 'why should I join this group when that one over there with the exact same story/advantages/amenities looks better?'
Just about any successful FC leader here can tell you that running a serious RPFC in this game is far from easy. There's a balance of admin work to keep outside people interested, keep the internal workings of the FC running smoothly, and then whatever RP stuff on top of that all.
This line alone will probably scare a few people off: A zero-OOC drama policy (Unless it can be controlled). There is no such thing as controlled OOC drama. Stick with zero.
Take all of the advice that people are offering you and work to be better. Just the show of improvement will help bring in more attention. Commitment as a leader will help draw in new members. Set clear guidelines of what you are looking for and give clear examples of what others can expect from you - this will help minimize having people join only to leave a day or two later.
