GK has RPing but it's more relaxed than Valikorlia and it's really up to what kingdom your in and if the people in your kingdom RP aswell.

Last I saw, Valikarlia lacked the systems we have which we can incorporate into RPing.
We have the class system, boat battles, many different types of items in the game...

I agree, but It takes the players to make the RP not the features.
But what you say is true. RPing can be incorporated into all those things and more. I use my Class for RP purposes, I RP during boat battles. And a lot more could be done. Skills, such as disarm trap ect could be used in RP.
But we really need the players with a passion for RPing. And being so little RP games out there (Online RP anyway) people don't get into it as much.
I know Event Masters used to host RP Lessons. We could do that again to get the ball rolling again.

Sorry that came out wrong i've edited my post.

I disagree with that absolutly. Scamming is in more than in 90percent of the cases the fault of the people who got scammed.
People deserve to loos their items if they are that intelligent and let other one "try" an item to see how it looks or if the stats get any better. You can use ganishop for the exact look and you can count the stats of the weapon to your current ones this is not hard.
Also showing stuff on tradetables you want to sell is a big risk. Lots of people already did cry that they clicked the green flag on addicent. Then don't put your stuff on the table if the other table side is not taken by someone who wants to buy something from you and just gets on in hope you click the wrong flag.

There is a safe way to trade your stuff, if you don't use if wise no other protection can help, too.

1) GK Police had some problems and were disbanded. So technically besides EM's being able to pillor..all you really have is EM's and FAQ reporting to Bjorn and Sam.

2) Its not the stuff that needs fixing. I don't know if people realize this but its us(the GK populace) that were the rpers. Even if stuff was fixed I doubt that rping would come back. First step is to get the populace back into it. You can fix all you want but if people aren't into it then they just aren't into it plain and simple.

3) Have to go with Bjorn on this one. In most cases when it comes to scamming its the person who got scammed fault. They either clicked the green flag/were dumb enough to say /dropall or let someone "try" their weapon/armor etc. We need to define scamming clearer so there isn't so many reports about scamming.

True.
But it's not always scamming.
It's people that bother you constantly aswell.

Then thats harrassment.. take some pics or something and forward to bjorn. eventually they will get enough complaints that he will have to listen.

I think it should be up to the leader of the kingdoms to teach, or appoint someone to teach rping, and enforce it. forest, cp, and Zormite should be having wars, making treatries... abd breaking those treaties. eventually if the other kingdoms don't join in on the fun, or take it too far... the leaders will get overthrown if you complain enough.

Answer me this:
Do you want fast action, or something that will take a while?

Oh, you mean that
http://support.graalonline.com/
isnt fast enough for you??

Forum pm Sam or Bjorn if you have an issue, get screenshots for proof too. They won't do anything unless you have actual proof that the person is breaking some rule.

Otherwise all you can do is complain to your kingdom leader about someone not really trading fair or a friend. Alot of kingdoms don't let scammers have an easy time in their kingdom.

I actually do agree with Bjorn, most people just say they got scammed now just so others give them some items. I wouldnt even be supprized if they just stuffed their items on another account.

Maybe each kingdom needs a new rank for Rping so they can make sure their members are doing it and are taught how.

Forest allready has its own set of RP rules and guidlines. What most people do not see, is that alot of what people say can be RP, so alot of it is rather grey area.

It IS the "stuff" that needs fixing. "No one wants to RP" is a statement based on the current population. Most RPers won't stick around if things aren't being done for their best interest- RPing. That's why kingdoms need to be better regulated so that leaders will come together and actually do things. If each kingdom is just doing its own thing, nothing interesting will happen.

I'm not trying to bash Forest in any way. But the only person I ever see RPing in Forest these days are Kara and John. Some of the members that were in forest a week or so ago were all anti-RP.

You are right. Right now, I'd say theres only 4-5 people who play that I can have a decent RP conversation with. Which is sad because 2-3 years ago, almost everyone that was on tag would RP. Especialy in events, even if it wasn't an RP event.

About 2 years ago, Alan issued a rank called Trainer and Master Trainer to CP (It might have been there before that but I didn't notice it.)
Anyway, Their job was to show the new guys the ropes. Teach them some basics of RP and the game. We could bring that back. The rank is still there. But no one is intrested in it.

Ravenblade1979 · #29 01-13-2008, 02:54 AM

I still don't think that fixing bugs will really bring in the rpers. Again it comes down to the players themself.
