Create a linkshell and advertise!

I reside on Ragnarok, which surprisingly has quite a bit of roleplayers on it. However I never found an actual linkshell on Ragnarok, or any comparable place where roleplayers could congregate, so I myself made a decision to create a linkshell devoted to roleplaying. After doing so I advertised for it, and you won't believe how quickly the members filled up. I was very surprised. But today a lot of us have made friends under the roof of the linkshell I created, and we can stay in-character all day and enjoy the community. The linkshell is very dear to me, and I devote a lot of effort to keep it running so that my members can feel comfortable. I even made friends with someone who eventually became my significant other because they found out about the linkshell, so I would absolutely encourage anyone to do the same if they find themselves on a server with seemingly few roleplayers. It's not like you have anything to lose right? Create a linkshell, promote RP, and you might find a lot of players are looking for exactly what you were looking for all along.

If all else fails though, good luck on your transfer to Balmung!
