[Guide] Roleplaying in Argonath, The way to have Fun...

[9r2e5i3k]

Then if it's a self guide, you mind removing/changing "Roleplaying in Argonath" to maybe "Thrarod's style of Role-playing" or "Thrarod's RP guide"?

It's not Argonath style. At least not the style Argonath originated from.

The fact that there is a guide is what troubles me.

To 9r2e5i3k;
-I've been on Argonath for 1 year or more

That doesn't matter. Grzesiek has been here ever since like what, a couple of months after Argonath MTA:VC opened.
Before you claim that you are better than me (and Grzesiek) due to activity, re-consider it... cuz I've been here like 2 years and half :3

Most people doesn't write a story but you will see that most clans/gangs wants you to write your ingame story to apply. In roleplay you don't need scripts that limits you but you have to roleplay without crushing the rules.

I actually support stories. People sometimes should reveal some sort of backstories of their character, makes RP much more intersting when it comes to something about the char's past.
I made something very similiar in RS2.

*Chris_Redford (I used my name here) takes a can of soda out of his pocket and starts to drink it , but don't write /me drinks soda, it's not that professional roleplay. You don't spawn a soda can to your hand IRL, you buy it or take it out from somewhere to drink it. The /me command will help you to get money too, going to explain in the following chapters.

How many times I've got donuts, beers, cocktails, laptops, or something out of THIN AIR (what? It's Argonath). This all "text everything you do, and must be realistic!!!" is bullocks.
Yeah RPing about pockets or bags or other stuff is quite intersting (and I do it too), I just like to spawn stuff that you roleplay with /me (remember that spawning cars and spawning weapons and other game stuff is not allowed).
BTW, this isn't Real Life RPG.

The terms, you don't have to learn all so I'm going to show the ones you must learn. First ones are IC, OOC and RP; I think you got RP so lets find out what IC and OOC are... IC is in character which is roleplaying but OOC is out of character so it's the thing IRL. They are commonly used as chat terms.

Next ones are Metagaming and Powergaming; those are important too, metagaming is using OOC terms IC like when you see someone's name on the screen and calling him/her with the name shown, like "Chris_Redford : Hi Mike!", you can't say this if you never asked his name before, you should first ask his/her name. This is the most common mistake so I show it only, you will see more IG I think

No. <refuses to get a valid reason, it's too obvious, and it has been discussed and still being countless of thousands of annoying times>

And the earning money part... meh

Hypocrisy?
1. You are trying to forbid someone to speak their opinion.
2. You made two topics in SA:MP General about pretty much the same thing... Why not include your other topic with the guide itself?
3. Are you trying to say that Grzesiek is an inferior RPer comparing to you, and that he should PM his ideas to your PM inbox so people can't agree/disagree with him or make his opinion confidential? Is this some kind of dictatorship?
4. Considering his status, influence, respect and friendship with other players, I don't think that you can make him obey you.

*END RAGE*
Oh it feels nice.

I don't like this guide, for a number of reasons:

- It's not concentrated on teaching how to role-play in general; it shows how to play in YOUR style.

Fully agree.

This is not the way to roleplay in Argonath, and in my opinion is also not the way to have fun.

Please change the title accordingly. D:

[Zaila]

I wasted 37 mins on this because I want Argo to be a better server

Then you wasted 37 minutes of your life when you could have been ingame and showing everyone what a "expert roleplayer" you are. It's people like you that tryes to force the IC / OCC rules on the server when the developers have said it's not gonna happend. And to be honest, those rules are completly bullshit.

[Pablo]

It's all up to people, not developers. People chose what they want to RP and HOW

Good job Tharod!

[ElMartu]

You're so gonna get killed because of the 3rd part

Good job Tharod!

So you are obviously condoning or even supporting what has caused such an uproar, including anger on the Owners' part. If you support the spread in Argonath, of things that have no place here, you are better off somewhere else, or at least remaining silent.


Conclusion: This is not a guide on how to RP in Argonath, this is a guide on how to RP anywhere else, except here.

That should be more than enough to convey the idea.

Requesting a topic lock / move / deletion / title change!

I don't like other servers, they are not as welcome as Argonath, and not such with good atmosphere like here.

Also, i cba running all time on LS** server with no car. Add to that, that Argonath scripts are created from scratch, not like other servers, from shitty GodFather edit.

[Que]

Tharod, who are you and why are you trying to make Argonath to a strict roleplay server when you already got the answer?

[Grovyle]

Tharod, who are you......

He posted the mystery bus topic, applied for Gvardia, and did some more posts.
He didn't seem like a strict RPer guy back then :v

[JDC]

People who try to spread the Strict-RP ideology here are better off somewhere else.

Once again, please change the topic title to an appropriate one!
