This is also just me, but I personally despise the idea that the sole reason people would join RP is because they don't want to have to deal with classic's purge day.
Why are we making or encouraging a situation where someone who doesn't have an RP-enjoying bone in their body (and I'd argue that's fine, it's not everyone's schtick) goes to RP, and entirely anecdotally, becomes a completely silent or monosyllabic player who barely interacts with the round. Some people come and love it, but there's going to be and again, entirely anecdotally there is right now a significant bump of people on 3 there not because they have the slightest inclination or interest in any form of RP, but because there's two types of soda at the machine and they can't drink Classic so RP it is.
To extend the awkward metaphor, maybe offer Dr. Classic alongside Classic Max and RPepsi.
