RPing o.0

[Thallen]

People do roleplay, just rarely, VERY rarely as a matter of fact. People are so busy begging and demanding for stuff, roleplaying gets lost in the mix.

[--Chris--]

Maybe if Stefan or Jagen decides to add my -Kingdom/RP- (Event Master) tag anytime soon you'll have some nice RP events ._.

[GoZelda]

The prizes. Since ultimately stuff was given out in events, people now except atleast a hammer of sorcery or a golden warrior helmet. But, since you can't give out items anymore,that also is impossible. And people know this, so why waste their time? That's a common thought.

We don’t need RP masters so we can RP because RP should come within us, so if we have RP masters then the spirit of RP will be lost causing a great cosmic rift in the RP universe. RP must be express freely but vile elements are trying to invade the spirit of RP causing an RP catastrophe which will eventually lead to the cosmic rift of the RP universe. All lines of life are connected to the RP universe, we must allow RP to naturally flow like lava down a volcano. The spirit lives in all of us and because of that we are all connected. One dominant RP spirit will throw off the balance of the natural free RP flow. The RP cosmic rift is the danger that will come ahead if we do not protect the flow of RP.

In order to RP you have to have some RP regulations. Some games I won't comment on which one.. has a very nice RP atmosphere because its enforced. Talking out of game is actually illegal. unless its in (()) so I dunno. wait.. that would require some work my bad.

I wouldn't mind having something happen kingdomwise... but I do mind the trouble it takes to get cooperation...

See, but the thing is, you can't force people to RP that don't want to. Even with events masters, and RP teams, and all that nonsense, you still can't alter the minds of the players. If someone want's to run around, pking people, and shouting useless nonsense, well, you just can't stop them.

The least you can do is RP yourself. Stay in character, like if somebody talks in so-called Internet Shorthand, you get the chance to act confused. After all, it must be some strange accent or different language, because you certainly have never heard the word "omg" (Ahhmg?) before.
Same goes for mentioning OOC things. Like the time someone said he hated America, I just blinked and said "What's America?" When he asked me what country I was from, I said "Dustari". And finally when he said. "In REAL LIFE" I replied with "Well, this is real life, unless you know of some other." and just walked off. Left the guy pretty aggrivated, but I myself had fun with it.

And that's really all you can hope to do. Is have fun with it yourself.

It's funny to confuse people

That's so great! I'm going to do that from now on. That sounds fun, to never go out of character .. I like that idea! ==

Well not really. You can still host events and stuff on your own. I guess you ant the tag for fame or something.

[GoZelda]

People listen to you when you have a tag. It looks official. If you go host (RP) events off-tag, not much people will come. I held an event, 75 people online, 5 did it.

[wonderboysp2p]

i was probably one of them if rping is invoilved im ther ^_^

but yeahnever going out of character? nice idea. im gonna try that.. maybe..

rping sucks, i'm glad people don't worry about it anymore

[Butz]

You might be surprised just how many people would disagree with you there. Rping doesn't suck. Rping with people that don't really want to/ know how to RP is what sucks. And as for being glad that people don't worry about it anymore, if you don't want to RP, pick a different server.
As for me, I'll continue to RP as long as I stay here, 'cause for me, it's much more interesting than chasing down monsters and hitting 'S' over and over again and filling my inventory with little coins and other things.
