I lean somewhere between the latter two options. Generally speaking I never really gave the main page more than a brief look as I'd simply take to this forum directly if I had anything to post/comment on.
However since it seems like a lot of people do want to see it make a return on the condition that it is updated more frequently then I'd suggest that it evolves it cover a broader range of subjects.
It'd be more work but I think it'd be cool if during periods where there isn't much FFXIV news to go around or there's simply a shortage of role-playing events to report on then there could be some sort of 'community spotlight' that highlights a particularly well written story, a constructive poster and a vast variety of other similar things.
That's my two pence, anyway! I'm not sure if this is precisely the sort of feedback you're looking for but this is the best I can come up with on a Sunday morning. :p
