The problem is that it's very small communities on a dozen or more servers, and most players don't find the idea of a small pool of roleplay partners to be very appealing compared to the potential of a larger pool.Â
IMO, the best thing that could happen would be for the leaders of those communities to get in touch and coordinate, and to poll the roleplayers on their server to find out how many of them would be willing to transfer off their current server if a major exodus were to occur. Determine a destination server (which could be one of the ones which already has a community - but should ideally be one that has a lot of open housing available, for obvious reasons) and collectively start getting people to migrate to it.Â
Math makes the concept clearer: If you have 10 servers with 50 roleplayers each, and 20 roleplayers from 9 of the servers would be willing to transfer to the 10th, now you have a server with 230 roleplayers (and 9 servers with 30 roleplayers who may reconsider their choice not to transfer, in light of the larger community that's banded together on the destination server).
