''Roleplay at all times'' rule.

[Marcel]

Actually, it's just a game. Roleplay and freedom given by owners to roleplay whatever we want made us stay.

Well, this is Argonath and we have a SA:MP roleplay server. OUR roleplay. But most of all, we are here to have fun and make friends. If you think that's a bad idea, you might want to consider looking for a different community since your views do not fit in with the majority of Argonath's players.

[Polar]

There is hope!

Well, you either have Actualy RP, No RP, or forced Rp. Granted majority is Actual RP, there's still some people who don't RP at all and/or Force it.

Why do people try to always compare here to **:**, one server is pretty much freeroam while the other is where you can actually roleplay with people with the same agenda.  We shouldn't need to FIND people to roleplay with or even make forum topics asking people if they wish to partake in some fun roleplay scenarios.  Everyone should be putting roleplay as first priority.

Yes, people should roleplay when there is an opportunity. However, I don't think we should sink to the point of shaming or persecuting players (or forcing them to /q) if there are times they just want to freeroam. After all, this is a game, and we come here to escape the stress we have in the real world.

Sometimes, we may just want to drive around to get our mind off things, or chill with our friends. But if you decide to forsake roleplay altogether (i.e. your first thing on the server always being "/r LAST MISSION???") then that is another story and it is you who needs re-evaluation.

While we do come here to talk to friends and all that stuff I also come here to roleplay with people new and old.  I don't want to be asking around "do you want to roleplay?", there's a line where roleplay should be enforced.

This.

I was wondering why would an admin on Argonath even mention it, not to say compare it.

Most of people there havent heard for Argonath, not to say mention it, yet around here its like people got a complex issue on it, and have to talk about it all day long. Even the ones who 'hate' it.

[Whiteman]

Little bit of roleplay doesn't harm anyone, try it.

If I go find someone to roleplay, I wouldn't go up to them and ask them "do you want to roleplay", that's pretty much -for lack of a better term- stupid. I just go up to them and roleplay. I've always thought this was a given with roleplay and common sense :/

Perhaps something to do with the fact that many Argonath players who have come to frequent that server (and others like it) try to change Argonath into something like it, or come back here and start shitting on the community by implying Argonath is inferior due to not adhering to the other server's standards? (hint, Ideas Board)

[Stivi]

Aye. This stands true

Please, a-team. If you can't enforce the RP rule when encountering a Rp scenario on everyone, resign.

Want to talk to your friends and have fun ? /cb or /p.

RP when someone RPs with you, simple. Just wish A-team will enforce this on everyone. Gandalf said A-Team will be stricter.

[Devin]

Gandalf said A-Team will be stricter.

Stricter towards rulebreaking, not stricter towards roleplay.

All players are obligated to roleplay now and then, but it's not something we shove down their throats. No matter how long and hard the discussion may be, Argonath is still a community and a game. The spirit of fun and friendship should stand erect among players, whether they like to use /L exclusively for roleplay, or to chill with their nearby friends.

Hence why we are not going to monitor players to force them to roleplay.

Can't enforce a rule that doesn't exist. Gandalf said it as; it was a players responsibility to RP and if they don't they should just /q not we, as admins, should take action.

I would like this, just today I was trying to RP being a hostage in a kidnap situation with Padres and the cops just ran in killed the kidnapper left and didn't RPed with me.

Should see some of the players that currently play then, you are more or less forced to ask/tell them to roleplay.  Might have been a given when there was decent people to roleplay with.

Nothing new been happening for years, although it's mainly down to the lack of experience cops have when dealing with such situations.  Some just want to play the hero and go balls out.

Rusty the problem is, the "RP Evidence" in the ARPD Forums area, in situations like this is it not possible to make a RP Evidence.
