Blue and Red players are just after different things. Blue players want progression of their characters for farming pixels. Red players want progression of their characters to farm other players.
I think the main problem with Red is the lack of a good guy/bad guy dynamic. Most kills are just random acts of murder, and that isn't really looked upon favorably by the general community. I think if most people have a choice they would choose not to live next to a mass murderer. Hence playing on blue server.
I really believe having a teams server that bans cross team play would really help give a motive. It could even cast some people in a heroic light instead of being a random serial killer out to set you on fire.
