That Discord server was a nice idea, but for a real new RP server that has a chance at growing (and now is the best chance to do it with SE making Balmung no longer an option) one or MAYBE two servers need to be chosen and named unofficial RP servers by us in the community.
One of the big things I have seen, which people seem to support as well, is to have stunt doubles of your existing characters on various servers. Several server reps (FC leads etc.) have stated they'd be willing to host events which would be easily accessible by e.g a level 15 character. Even going so far as to provide rides on 2 person mounts to get people to locations that it would be risky and lengthy to run to. I think this is a great way to ease up on the fact that the community is otherwise very scattered. Obviously mains have to be somewhere, but even to that end, rolling alts to check out various communities may help ease that choice - and building a culture where the server you play on isn't going to restrict you from some events is only beneficial, in my eyes.Â
Presently I know there are RP communities on;
JenovaÂ
CoeurlÂ
LamiaÂ
Mateus
CerberusÂ
CactuarÂ
UltrosÂ
LeviathanÂ
Hyperion
MidgardsomrÂ
Gilgamesh
Famfrit
These are either organised in linkshells or guilds. Not all of them have websites. Size wise, a lot of them seem equal.Â
I do not think that having a mentality of "Bigger is better" is going to be very helpful when looking for RP outside of Balmung.Â

Awoken Wanderers <WAKE> on Leviathan, Arche Koeln <Codex> on Lamia, Tantalus Threatre LS on Lamia, The Hearth LS on Leviathan.. And more to come. We will eventually get the names and links of everywhere. I hope you can use some of this info for your list.
This means some peoples feelings are gonna be hurt when their 3 person LS on Famfrit that RPs isn't on the same level as, say, Mateus and Siren with their actual multiple FCs and roaming RPers. You can't make everyone happy here and trying while shushing anyone who says something negative is futile and the sort of behaviour best left to Tumblr.
