    Greetings,

    Apologies for the delay, I know you've all been waiting on a response to this topic.

    There aren't any plans to designate a roleplay server for the upcoming World Merge. However, Yoshida did tell us "I also like roleplaying, so with the launch of version 2.0 we'll prepare a roleplay server."

    Thank you Bayohne-meister.

    Here's hoping that Yoshida will succeed in his quest!

    Oh hurrah, thank you so much for the response Bayohne! Not to mention carrying our concerns and all.

    Who was it said we'd get a response Tuesday? Bang on the money. I put Monday as an outside guess earlier but still - hurrah! If nothing else this also puts to rest one of the arguments being hurled about by certain less friendly members of the community, too, hopefully.

    Now, here's hoping us roleplayers don't have to go through too much palava come that time, and that the server's setup won't be too unfriendly to people don't like roleplaying so much as just being on a server with the sort of community is friendly to it.

    Thanks again!

    im sure 99% of the arguing thatl come when 2.0 hits and your offered a server is due to the fact youll have to transfer away from Balmung to a new server. And how people will whine its unfair they have to leave friends behind and itl split the community.

    QFT. This is exactly what is going to happen LOL. However, congrats to all you RP dudes, dudettes, and ladydudes on getting your own RP server at the end of the year. Hope you guys enjoy it.

    Thank you, Wynn.

    And yes, it's pretty obvious that'll happen if a separate server is created. Frankly, though, how is that different from any change to the game? Some group will always have issues, another will present reasonable counter arguments, and then there'll be one more whose members just act like idiots.

    I suspect come that time I will be supporting any threads asking either that the official designation be applied to the server with the greatest roleplayer concentration, or any thread proposing a good idea for getting the community comfortably transplanted. But even if that motion fails and the RP server's creation is done clumsily, I still think the existence of such a server would be most beneficial in the long-run so.. yeah. I know I wouldn't mind starting over to follow the majority of roleplay. Of course that's only my opinion but.. that's kind of the point.

    If anything, my concern is that the eventual creation of a roleplay server will make certain people feel it gives them free reign to be nasty to anyone fancies engaging in roleplaying on a server that isn't officially suggested for the purpose. But then, I guess there'll always be people are basically just horrible. Hooray for blacklists.

    If anything, my concern is that the eventual creation of a roleplay server will make certain people feel it gives them justification to be nasty to anyone fancies engaging in a little roleplaying on a server that isn't officially suggested for the purpose. But then, I guess there'll always be people are basically just horrible. Hooray for blacklists.
    it will be a new sevrer 100%, they wont designate a server already out there as a roleplay server, for the same exact reason the EU server is a "new" server compared to the others which are merged
    you dont want to force people onto a roleplay server who do not want to be there, it must 100% be by choice(its more fair obviously, since roleplayers want the server that they should be inconvenienced by a move and not those who arent the roleplayers who do not want or do not care about the server)

    as far as people who will come harrass you, yeah youll get those regardless its the nature of the beast, on or off an official serverm though you cant say that non roleplayers showing up on a roleplay server wont get it thrown in their face too...same beast...same crap
