Good old Samurai

[Kaimetsu]

This is why all the kingdom leaders should be replaced by people who understand macroscopic RPing.

I'm agreeing with Draco.. Samurai is just as good at RPing as the other kingdoms - meaning that maybe 1/5 of them can RP. I also seem to remember half of Samurai chasing me trying to kill me for no real reason...that was awhile ago though so alot of those people might've left by now.

they all followed alex to forest, wherever alex goes, they all go

The point of the history Reaper was to defend myself against the insults you tossed towards my kingdom rp wise. The history includes members I accept, reject and why/how I recruit them with backup.

Also errm...Kaimetsu, not all the leaders need to be replaced, especially this one.

Haha Denori, where did you pull that one from? I had 15 active members on my 2nd day as King. Alex was only recruited two days ago and why would they? It's not like he's the strongest person around. The main reason that I figure most of these people joined is cause of the new ranks I made (in Forest you could rp as practically anything but under a human or elf race) and the recognition of the efforts made to keep good role-playing which would include events such as the "Ceremony of The Gods" with valuable prizes =O Alex along with many other powerful players did influence quite a few others to join, it's like a domino effect.

Example 1: Tyhm was in Forest so Com013 followed (or so I assume)

Example 2: Zurkiba, Excal, Me, Tseng (Tseng is now in Dustari though.)

Example 3: Alex, Taharu, Jin

After being publicly seen with a large amount of good quality members (both rp and power wise) we became more and more recognised and now everyone wants to join

"Forest recruits people that can and cannot rp"

I disagree.

[--Chris--]

Those words came from Excal not me! I don't recruit people that can't rp x.x Look at the message logs, it would show you a dude from Samurai asking me who couldn't rp and I told him no and that was the reason X_X

I usually ensure they could rp first *Refer to message history also*

The closest thing to someone that can't rp at all that I'll recruit would be someone that says IC means to roleplay with others who are also in character

Your test leaves something to be desired. Knowing the meanings of acronyms is hardly the same thing as being a good roleplayer.

[Tseng]

With Dustari, I ensure people know not only what the acronyms stand for, but the concepts behind them.

I've been bugged to hand out recruit rights to others - but I will not. I cover the recruiting simply because it's something I'm reasonably good at, and something I don't trust others with.

It's very difficult to tell whether someone understands or simply parrots something they've been told before, but I do my best. Granted, a couple slip through occassionally that do not understand, but I make it my goal to get them to understand. I also am quite apt to recruit someone if they show a willingness to learn, a desire for knowledge, and who seems to be a good person.

I stress RPing as well as honor.

That seems to be working; look at how well Dustari's turned out.

And, it must be kept in mind that those who don't understand RPing, but really would like to, should also be given a chance to learn...that is one of the main points of the lowest rank...to give them the chance to learn both the art of RPing as well as to learn how to fight in-game...was like that at 2k1, and I'm happy to continue that tradition.

As for Samurai, no offense, but Rahz, you call the rest of us hypocrites, while being one yourself. You speak of removing people for violating rules, pking, scamming, etc...Yet why does Samurai continue to do so?

Why do you raise a middle finger to the whole RPing community by being

Shogun "Stefan I need a restore It's been two months" (Samurai)

A great name for RPing =) I'm sure you guys have fun RPing, which you people are so insistent that you do. Does someone play Stefan? Do you RP that you get mad at Stefan? How does this work? I'm quite confused.

*bemused smile*

In short, you name everyone else a hypocrite, when you cannot provide solid evidence; and in fact, all the evidence points to yourself as the hypocrite.

And as I've said before, I'm not going to start an RP war over someone PKing - That's just stupid. And I'm pretty sure the rest of the kingdom leaders (except for Samurai) would agree with me on that. Also, I don't think any of the other kingdom leaders would disagree that it's time Samurai had a civil war and some new leadership. One that would actually follow the basic RPing rules.

I'm just growing so disgusted...

[Evil_Lord_Sparda]

I agree totally with tseng, and i actually think, contrary to you view, that it is quite easy to Rp a Samurai...

[--Chris--]

Kaimetus: *Gives reference to message history with Reaper again and to one of Reaper's post.*

I also test their rp skills by giving them a random role to play and they must be successful in order to get recruited or have atleast some what of a good idea on what they're doing. Also...I make them define the acronym, not only unabbreviate and give examples before they could even try to be tested with a random role for recruitment. Heh...sadly I've never heard of a practise as close to this one on Samurai but Reaper still has the nerve to mock my efforts ._.

Kingdoms Frankly isnt an RP server, the only reason im even having this argument is because i DO enforce it, but still hear *****ing as if you all are better than me. And everyone knows im the best leader any nation could have of course. (and modest too)

Exactlly


however like i said, it isnt an RP server. And if you all want to ***** about rping so much, go make your own rp server. and boot everyone off of it who dont rp.

However those of us on graal kingdoms will do the best to our limited abilitys (as now we have no jailing or assassination powers (least no exp loss)) to maintain a limited standerd of RPing and playing Kingdoms, the paid server.

as for chris

What goes around, comes around

and stop warping your kingdoms minds through toguilds to follow your belife system, i can do the same and try to have my kingdom Flame you in pms with usless garbadge as well.

i know im good at it arent i.

I hardly run around flaming every other kingdom for their mishaps, untill this post. I know, im so kind.

Shogun "Stefan I need a restore It's been two months" (Samurai)

Actually the corrrect nick was "I need restore for 2 PAID months -ooc" Nothing wrong with being on tag and ooc so that your members know where to find you.

"Kingdoms Frankly isnt an RP server, the only reason im even having this argument is because i DO enforce it, but still hear *****ing as if you all are better than me. And everyone knows im the best leader any nation could have of course. (and modest too) "- HAHAHAAHA....I'm sorry, that was amusing.


"however like i said, it isnt an RP server. And if you all want to ***** about rping so much, go make your own rp server. and boot everyone off of it who dont rp. " - That player-world valikorlia (sp?) does that and it isn't that unsuccessful. Of course we can't do that on a p2p server x.x


"What goes around, comes around

and stop warping your kingdoms minds through toguilds to follow your belife system, i can do the same and try to have my kingdom Flame you in pms with usless garbadge as well. " - Dude you don't know what the hell you're talking about. I don't flame any kingdoms including Samurai, I always try to keep the peace...if only message logs recorded outgoing toguilds I would show you everything -_- 100% of the time it's them telling me, if at all "I hate Samurai they <insert stupid thing here> to me" and my reply would be "Don't do anything stupid, keep the peace, I'll contact their leader" which as you notice I obviously have e_e Anyone else that tells you something it's from their own will and mouth after seeing Samurai in action ^_^

[Tseng]

After reading his post, all I can say is "whoa..."

And he called the rest of us hypocrites.

Thanks for proving my point, Rahz-man.

Wow.

Smart, cool, AND modest! People don't get much better than you, Rahz!

Now I get why Samurai is so cool; too bad I'm with Dustari, otherwise I'd just flock to Samurai and join up so fast

And I mean WOW, RPing Samurai is so hard and stuff, it's so hard to RP a Japanese version of an honorable knight, but it's so easy to RP an honorable English knight!

Who would have thought that two codes of honor could be so unalike?!

Who would have thought, indeed!

And with a guy as great as you leading Samurai, wow! The RPing must be great! Even though it's so hard, you're just that good to make it work, right?

But wait...you're not...and it doesn't...even though it's so much easier than you say...

And aww...that screenshot is so cute...

[ReaperJ]

nobody said it was hard, i just said, that being an elf, pirate or dustari happens to be extremly easy =P
