Oficial RP servers. How hard is to make?

I know Tarnished Coast is our RP server. Love it and it has a great community.

However, new commers usually feel lost not knowing where to go and on the long run TC will just end up being another server.

Please, pick a server, make it RP and let us all flock in there under it’s banner.
Naming policy isnt that impossible to enforce!

Or create a new server and let us all transfer to it.

There are no plans to flag a World as an official role-play Word. The amount of customer support overhead involved in enforcing RP names, in-character chat, etc., not to mention creating policies and rules governing RP, is a massive undertaking. We would prefer that community members self-organize.

We absolutely welcome the creative efforts of role-players, but we feel that these efforts should be managed by the players.

Sanya Weathers, a veteran industry community manager, laid out very well and pretty clearly just how huge an undertaking it is for a company to provide role-playing servers and more importantly what is involved in doing it right in this article.
