Korhil Report post Posted May 6, 2005 Same here. I rp when I meet other rpers. Maybe one day, it would be considered that if enough ppl donated there could be a rp server? I guess that'd need a LOT of donations though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mireille Report post Posted May 6, 2005 The question is do people acctually role play in game? if you do post below and some things you talk about and some examples of role play chat 143052[/snapback] Hell, I hope they don't. I remember my first experiences with MUDs, I created my character and joined the game. I was terribly lost so I asked someone how you did X and Y. HE said "You're not role-playing!" and killed me. Idiots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korhil Report post Posted May 6, 2005 What do you expect on a MUD? with no graphics did you really expect Mr.Everquest and Mr.Anarchy online to be playing? The only reason to play is for the RP element though I've never been brutally murdered for slipping OOC (out of character) do you really want Frodalf, your haughty elven mage friend to start typing "Aarrrgghh my chext! My chest! Where are my nitoglycerin pills!?" Certainly not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain_Smile Report post Posted May 6, 2005 No. Never saw any real roleplaying. exept for a few rare occurancies... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quinticus Report post Posted May 6, 2005 i like to RP as well...though most of the time its with Raven and Adarah. Those two can get pretty crazy. Wouldn't you be if you had to stare at a rival all day? They've been fighting over me for some time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kat Report post Posted May 6, 2005 i used to do some role playing in-game, but that was just to help my story for the game... that nvr got finished and like whenever i'd get stuck on a part, i'd get some of my guild members together, let them know about their character's background, and then they story would continue. It was actually quite fun ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roja Report post Posted May 11, 2005 Actually I organized a RP group once, and we did it a few times It was really fun, and i'd love to do it again but just dont' have the time. Why don't you start and organize one yourself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korhil Report post Posted May 11, 2005 Maybe someone could start a RP guild, so that we could see at a glance (due to the guild title) who's a fellow rper? Wouldn't need to be any specific guild ranks or meets or anything, the only rela point would be the title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyanna Report post Posted May 12, 2005 Guild tag: ROLE I've got the money and level to start it, but I don't have the time to run it. Anyone interested? -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korhil Report post Posted May 12, 2005 Would it need anybody to run it? Could you just set it up and then forget about it? Or would you need to approve all the applications and everything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyanna Report post Posted May 12, 2005 Yes, obviously a Role-playing guild would need someone in charge who would make sure the people are actually RPers (and not just some newbies who want to get into any guild), accept and manage the guild, and probably organise RP events together. -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
projoesback Report post Posted May 12, 2005 used to rolePLay...with my friends..ogle ..roland and mabey some others... it was pretty fun...but.wen stoped after a week or two.. and if you started a role playing guild ...couldent you just put the guild itself at a high enough rank to accept them and higher their rank? Thank way everyone pitches in to make the guild not just one person constantly working? (i see a flaw in that plan) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korhil Report post Posted May 12, 2005 I don't see why you'd need events or anything like that, all I was suggesting was for the tag, so that a member can wander off and do his or her own thing, but should they come across someone else who RPs they'd be able to tell at a glance, but I see you point too...

Lyanna Report post Posted May 12, 2005 All right, I guess I could try it. One of the major disadvantages, though, is that you can only belong to one guild at a time. Many players may not choose to leave their current guild atmosphere just for a loose association of RPers linked by a name. That's why a person dedicated to managing a guild is important too. -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korhil Report post Posted May 12, 2005 I had just thought about that, only belonging to one guild. Perhaps instead of a guild there could be a person in game who you ould talk to, he would offer you the chance to have an "RP" tag added to your name somewhere, maybe after any guild tags? Would that be too difficult? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyanna Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Difficult, since that would require some changes to the server. It would be better, I think, to have a bot that keeps a record of all RPers who have registered with him, and are online at the time. It's not as straightforward as being able to see immediately who's an RPer and who isn't, but at least it's better than nothing... Trouble is, of course... who's going to program and maintain this bot? -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunslingers Report post Posted May 13, 2005 Actually, a bot or a seperate guild isn't necessary, you're making more work for yourselves when you dont need to After the discussion on this thread I was thinking of setting up an RP'ers website and forum for EL players.. it would allow me and Jane to organise a live events team quite much faster, and all the RP'ing information would be in one central place. Ideally once its setup there will be a list of players registered and their names on the site, so you can check who is RP'ing - eventually though I would expect RP'ing groups to emerge (if enough people get involved) and we have a list of groups, and you can sign up for various RP'ing groups.. but I'm getting ahead of myself again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
