I wouldn't consider myself any better an RPer than some others, but thanks.

There is a black hole which looms over Graal Kingdoms, sucking up and destroying all attempts at getting Roleplay up to speed. Your attitude is the kind which nourishes that black hole, keeping it big and strong and black

However, i must agree with you that the GK system, its management, and its playerbase and their disgusting USD habits, are largely to blame

When i put your kingdom down, i don't do it as a representative of Zormite, i do it as an individual roleplayer.

Precisely why we call it a newbie kingdom. Level requirements mean nothing. Ask any of my old enemies, the powerplayers of yesteryear, and they will tell you that even at level 15-20 i was a newbie. I would then agree with them. It is really not hard to gain levels while at the same time failing to gain any knowledge or wisdom whatsoever.

A player's level is no indication at all of his character.

I am quite the role player, and I have tried role playing a japanese persona, it's not an easy task, especially if you are trying to keep it legit and you don't know japanese.
Rubbish, if you ask me. People managed it on 2k1 (although not in the latter part - this is where i picked up the belief that samurai is the newbie kingdom, and the GK kingdom has managed somehow to maintain that belief for me) and they can manage it now. You don't need to be japanese in the slightest. To me, the people of samurai should simply be honourable people with great pride in themselves, their skills(rp-wise, **** the stupid GK system), and their nation. This should be shown through their RPing, and that is not a hard thing to do.

Negative. I've had personal experience in denying people membership and then seeing them join KJ in the blink of an eye.

And if you aren't the stuckup ones, why are you rejecting people that we are not?

Yeah like i already said, reaching level 8 takes no skill whatsoever. And excuse me, but you can hardly brag about having a level requirement a whole TWO levels above the other kingdoms, especially when the experience needed to gain those two levels is so tiny and easy to obtain.

And all who enter the kingdom have to take a solemn vow never to steal/scam on or off tag.
Yeah, because that's real hard to break

I would also like to point out that it is KJ's rejects who have been added to the so called stricter kingdoms, including the two that were banned
for abusing rights and removing me from the kingdom gui.
Refresh my memory as to who those individuals are and what kingdom they joined? I can't remember, but i have a feeling they are fine people...
