If its going to be a rp server then at least have classes! How many rp games have you seen without classes? Count them. Itll be a very low number.
When the person chooses the class they get a tag. Not a bracket tag () but a different tag. eg. Bob the evil [mage]
Then if they were in a kingdom
eg. Bob the evil [mage] (evilpeoplekingdom)
Dont make 50 different classes though *cough* certain server I cant remember the name of *cough*
Also dont let classes start with all their weapons. Thats just stupid. Make them work for them. Have an experience system. Level system. Training system. Some kind of system.
Classes you should have (common well known ones)
1. Warrior (sword and shield stuff)
2. Mage (dark magic)
3. Sorceror (light magic)
4. Thief [maybe] - (sneaky things)
5. Elf (Long range stuff. Especialy bows)
These are the main ones used in most rp games. So thats only 4-5 which isnt bad.
Also change the MP system so you can get more than 100 mp. Make it go upto something like 500 mp but it only starts off as something like 50 mp and you have to fight baddies, do quests and so on.
Also max classes have distinct advantages/disadvantages.
Warrior - Highest level sword and shield. No magic at all. Weapons that can be used on horse (eg. spear)
Mage - Lots of offensive magic. No defensive. No shield. Low to average level sword.
Sorceror - Lots of defensive magic. No offensive. No shield. Low to average level sword.
Thief - Average level sword and shield. No magic. Has theif skills (lock picking. Camoflauge [Camoflauge should come off when they attack a player.])
Elf - Average level sword and shield. No magic. Long range weapons. Wide variety.
Class meters.
Warrior - None.
Mage - Magic - self explanitory
Sorceror -Magic - self explanitory
Thief - Skills -they have a set number of times they can use each skill before they have to recharge them. Starts off as 1-3 and raises to 20 or something.
Elf - Depends. If its some kind of bow or something along them lines then its supplies (can be bought or made). For other weapons not requiring supplies there is none.
I could go into more detail but id be here a while.
