Uninstanced Salma district was a haven for RPers. Due in no small part to the difficulty and knowledge required in getting there, it was essentially reserved for people who had done their research and really wanted to be a part of the vibrant and thriving roleplaying community. It is sometimes difficult to conduct RP in more public settings where people are running around, talking to NPCs, or just casually griefing RPers in the area because they’re bored – and it can be intimidating to new RPers, too. But you could be almost guaranteed that you would find quality people in uninstanced Salma, eager to play the characters they so carefully designed. It was a very nurturing environment for roleplayers new and old.
It’s a shame to see such a staple roleplaying location suddenly closed off. It may not have been the original intention of the Salma district, and accessing it is an exploit, but it encouraged a beautiful community and did a tremendous amount of good.
I hope you’ll consider taking down the invisible walls. If not just because RPers are generally wonderful people and they deserve a little haven, then because they also buy a lot of cosmetic stuff from the gem store and don’t usually PvE enough to pay for it with gold.
