The community is very split between casual and "serious" for sure. There are a ton of casual players however that enjoy the servers contents and don't frequent the forums, hence why they are casual. I would actually argue that there are more casual players on this server than not that simply just enjoy the content and play it out.
A huge problem is those who do add you or post on the forums are mainly serious players, very few casual players would even consider to make that kind of effort. Our grouping of serious players are a very VERY loud minority, and often try to set the tone of the server to serious which then turns more people into serious members and etc.
I don't think changing the rules per server is a great idea, that would mean one server would be preferred over the other which could make it seem like an entirely new community, and being how seasonal FRG is, when one server is full I don't want to force a different experience on others. It would turn into a brawl of what each player wants, and I don't think at the end of the day that would solve anything.
I'm sure there's an in-between somewhere. People who are too serious should really tone it down and people who want FRG to be a giant meme should tighten up, but its not that easy. At the end of the day, the community is super important as are their opinions but the final call is yours - you have more experience than any of us here and we all joined because we saw something here that you added.
