This. I am 100% with this! I personally haven't found any abuse or hate or trolling at all on Balmung. In fact, I was RPing a rather mushy gooey 'D'aw dats adorable' scene on a rock in the North Shroud. And some guy actually whispered me, cause he was leveling Botany, and was within range of our emotes and pretty much said. "That was an extremely sweet read, thank you for making this so much better."Â
My experiences are obviously not like everyone elses, but if we smack a 'RP' server label on Balmung / Gilgamesh. I just view it as more of a target for trolls. Our community is -massive- as we've seen with the Gala, and I'm sure there's a bunch more that couldn't make it, or didn't even know! We don't need a label, because we've established a footing and gotten comfy here already.Â
In personal opinion, if they opened up new server, specifically for RP. I wouldn't move at all. I'd keep my butt firmly cemented to Balmung, we've spent months prior to launch tip toeing around the server subject. My feet are in the water. I ain't moving!
