Guild Relations Program and RP Servers

I am highly curious as to why no RP guilds were chosen for the Guild Relations Program. While I have looked at the guilds represented and agree that the impact they've made on their respective servers must have been important, I don't understand why Blizzard has chosen to overlook a fairly significant portion of their playerbase.

I find it interesting that no RP guild has impacted their server enough through events. I've known guilds that have held server-wide RP events in the fashion of Sleeper Cartel (think some of their events with the roleplayer in mind). There have been player-run carnivals and festivals, bardic competitions, plays, RP-story-line events (a story line that culminated in a open attended trial in which at least 70 or 80 members of the community attended - Alliance and Horde alike), and a multitude of parties with player-run quests. There have been ship christenings and low-level-assistance events like armor giveaways and "soup kitchens" - food/bags/potions/etc. There have been flight-path escorts, assistance with charter signing events, and summoning parties. And these are just some of the events that I have personally seen.

How could these not have enough of an impact on their servers to make the list?

Aside from that, I have to say that I'm particularly impressed with the Sleeper Cartel. I love what they do and would love to emulate it if I could, but with an RP influence. I admire the fact that they can find enough proactive people to help them gather and farm and plan, when I have to run an event almost wholly by myself. I love running events, and I don't want recognition for that - in fact, I'd like to see some other RP guild be chosen, I haven't made enough of an impact - I just wanted to mention that you definitely belong on that list.

So any thoughts on why an RP guild wasn't mentioned?

A role-playing (RP) guild was selected and accepted. Circumstances resulted in them not being part of the program -- (probably important to note that the circumstances had nothing with us no longer wanting them as part of the program).

With that being said, I'm very interested in adding a role-playing guild. If you're an interested role-playing guild that would like to become part of the program, make it known through action.
