Custom CC Games are way better than Ranked

The two I linked at the start of this thread, Rising Stars and Temari's, are both pretty chill -- so if you're interested in what they have to offer, I can guarantee they'll be sanitized.
Same with another group, PvPrincesses.

That sounds good. Perhaps when ranked is less active on my end I might take a peek, especially considering I just threw the towel with pve in XIV.
What is the main difference between all those servers? Do they really need to be all distinct instead of more centralized?

Well, most of these communities started with one person having an idea for an event and made their own server, rather than getting approval/permission from one of the larger ones. Over time it grew to be a staple of the community and the rest is history.

Which is how I started mine. I wanted to see more Crystalline Conflict tournaments so I made a discord server that I could customize to better feed information to team leads/friends. Sure I could have latched onto PvPrimal or Revival or some other large server but personally, I like doing my own thing.
