We get it. People want everyone to stick together on Balmung and sing kumbaya. Great. Only one problem. Balmung is closed. Nobody gets in. No new characters, no transfers, no nothing. It will remain closed for a period anywhere between 2 months to several years. We have no idea. In the meantime, there are RPers who have nowhere to go.
What is your solution? Keep pressuring SE like we've been doing since 2010 with no results? Is that it???
The solution is to put as much pressure on SE as possible to lift the server restriction or finally give us a official designated RP server. Fragmenting our community is /not/ the solution to this problem.
We need to solve this problem as soon as possible because it is causing issues for roleplayers today. SE doesn't exactly have a great track record of listening to Balmung customers regarding server concerns (see: we still have no new apartments despite them saying they could easily be generated). We cannot afford to wait around for them to maybe or maybe not listen to something that some people on one hugely overpopulated server are saying.
You're suggesting we place all our efforts into something with close-to-zero guarantee of any payoff at all, let alone what we actually want; when we could be placing those efforts into something with a 50/50 chance of either being something kinda good for a few months, or something great in the long run.
You have far too much faith in Square Enix and far too little faith in the wider community. And this is from the person who spent 2000 words further back in the thread detailing all the pitfalls they thought the alternative community efforts might fall into.
