Sorry can't get addicted to Argonath RPG

And for the donations, there's nothing more they can do than thank him; However nobody ever forced players to donate. You really shouldn't complain about that..

 Don't make me dig into the forums to find the amount of times donations were required. From the server downtimes, to club.argonathrpg showing how much money is needed to bring the servers back up...To Gandalf's latest "200$ to bring RS4 back" or whatever it was...It's not stated directly, but it's been hinted way too much.

What's your point with this?

I think it's pretty clear. Think about what you said.
" However nobody ever forced players to donate."

Respect the fact that they've kept the server alive for all these years, and let us all have fun for free. If someone is able to and wants to help the community even with IRL money, then why not do it?
I was never forced to donate to Argonath, really not sure how you call that "forcing", they just with one way or another asked for help to keep the server up, and not for their own profit, but for us all.

Actually it was directly stated he would charge to re-host RS4. I take it you know nothing about servers, server hosting, business management, or anything in this ballpark?

In the case of RS4, it was optional right? If you wanted it back, you had the OPTION. Not forcing. In the time of a one month downtime, it was caused by a mess up at the bank. Gandalf stated if people pitched in the server would come back up faster than waiting for the bank to pull its finger swiftly from its anus and do something.

What is meant by this, is, there is no perks to donating. You don't get any special treatment. We're not a Pay-to-win server, we're not like that other popular server that charges you to get extra shit just to RP with a script. If you like the server and wanna see it continue to run, we ask for help. If we, as in Gandalf, encounter a problem and are unable to do so for a month, we ask for help to get it back up quicker.

If you donate you donate; if you don't you don't. You are treated the same. You get the same. You are the same. Nothing more, nothing less.

Hope its clear. I can simply if needed.

 This is quickly moving the attention to another part of my post on the previous page, I won't go on about the donations, it's simply my point of view I guess. But still, I'd like to see your explanation of the lack of respect and the disrespect toward veterans of this community.

The disrespect is not only against the Veterans. If you come online, or even on forums, you can see veterans who behave worse than newbies. It's not about the rank, really. Lack of respect is everywhere.

Veteran decides to f**k around? Banned. No second chances.

Why would you decide to fuck around?

I believe we as a community have the ability to create nice RP without the need to guns and fighting and moaning as it was done mostly in RS1/2. But it would also require the community to be willing to accept that style.

So the big question is, is the community as a whole competent enough to accept people who RP more than they shoot? No one knows this answer, but I believe doing so would be worth a try.

Well said.

The bonus system for mechanics and drivers is kinda good. You can get 4k every day by that.

I disagree, the mechanic system is practically just the same as a medic asking for /heal for cash.

What? that's a roleplay server mate why should people roleplay with guns? what roleplay can you do without guns? open a club and dance like a retard? smoke a cigarette? I mean seriously if some people are breaking the rules doesn't mean people should start RPing with no guns and stuff beacuse that's even more boring from the current situation.

Far be it for Crime Families to ever get into disagreements that escalate into violence. 

Neither should Gangsters be expected to join hands with the Police and sing kumbaya... Seriously... lol

I'm sorry but I just can't overlook the fact how the author of this topic, full of shitting on RS5 and so on, has been playing yesterday like nothing has ever happened, and when I confronted him about this topic in game in the public chat, he somehow had no recollection of what he wrote here! Speak of hypocracy. It justifies the statement one of the developers said here - all these who "leave" with throwing all kinds of shit towards the community are not taken seriously, because in the end they end up playing anyways, and they were right.
