Stuff I'd like to point out. Please read.

[Gnb_22]

You guys make me laugh so hard.

[Mukdk]

Sure thing brony. Peace out.

[Devin]

My reaction to all this:

Do you have some to share? 

[Teddy]

Some claim they want us to be more like other servers while in reality if you acted like the little shits a minority of people in the community act like... you'd be banned from these other servers in a heartbeat. I know admins in some of these other servers who have zero tolerance for 90% of the bulshit attitude and blatant disrespect handled by the team here; but won't second guess turning around and putting a player in their place if need be.

Consider that before you get what you wish for.

I recovered my now 9 year old shitty hotmail adress to restore my password. And to login. Just to reply to this singular thread that contains so much drama.

Are the two of you lovers?

I guess that is reason for me to block its return.

I guess taking a big pile of poo and throwing it at the people who spent time playing here, and helping it grow. Is the proper way to do things now is it?
I'm no champ myself but wow. Just wow. Man are you being a grumpy, spitefull old man just now. And that is seriously discomforting to know.

What I don't get with ALL of you. Is why people cannot, and absolutely refuse to compromise in their roleplay.
You give and you take. That is really fucking simple to understand. But oooooooohhhhh nope. We must absolutely do it this way, or the other way. Or backwards. or forwards.

I used to heavily hate IC/OOC, I still do.
And I'm not a huge fan of srs rp.

But these things can co-exist, one way or another. Isn't this the world of it's own after all? Or is it just a front for a two people dictatorship that stopped working as soon as the community got bigger. Why is people here so utterly fixated on doing everything they can to NOT relax. To ensure fun only for yourself and no one else.

Times change, and while I'd absolutely love to revert things to what I consider to be the golden ages. It can't and will not happen.
Opinions are opinions. No need to go crazy. 

What I want to say is. Calm down. Make a plan, stick to the plan. Then grab a beer and relax.

Or some shit like that, I'm off now to do some space adventuring or something like that with my pockets full of cash.



Also bananas. Because we need a ice breaker in here.

Percentage of bullshit in her raises by the hour... Lets stick on topic rather than a weird and useless argument between the owner and two veterans...

[SkyHawk]

If you keep talking about something that has pre-existed in this community for several years you are only adding fuel to the fire. Instead of individuals going on soapboxes about the server and the shitty aspects currently in existence within' the server, primarily the roleplay aspect and the disrespectful attitudes shown both from administration and the player base, how about you actively go out and make a difference. Be the individual that steps outside of their comfort zone and actively pursues efforts to make a change instead of bullshitting every one of us on the forum with your ideology and propaganda. Be a leader not a follower. The best phrase to describe the predicament in Argonath. Don't wait for the average Joe or even server leadership for that matter to implement change, take it upon yourself to do it.

I'm sick and tired of reading these useless topics that start out with a vision and wined up being a damn shit show between both sides of the argument. Be the person that breaks away from the crowd and actively starts putting in effort rather than preaching to the fucking choir on the forum about changing this, and that, and that. There is no such thing as progress without action. You can talk about it all you want, but until someone actually starts trying to make a change rather than dictating others to make the change, NOTHING is going to happen. No one, I mean NO ONE is too fucking good to sit here and tell others to go make a change. It's a community effort, you want something done? Go fucking do something about it, then and only then will you actively see a change in Argonath.

What was the point of making this topic. Argonath RPG has been running the same way how it has been for years now. It is a "World of its own" so if you piss someone off or do something crazy expect to be shot. Your orange on the map you better start running or surrender before you get pwned by cops. That goes the same for me if I get chased down by criminals for getting to close and they kill me for it then so be it. It was my fault for getting to close anyway and engaging the suspects without any extra support. This is GTA. I have no problem with criminals calling 911 saying they have a hostage hell it just makes my job that much easier. You know why they do it? Because a real life kidnapping may take months and up to years before cops can find the actual kidnappers. Instead to speed that roleplay up they call 911. You all are wishing for a perfect peaceful roleplay. YEAH? Well all I say is this is. In GTA not everyone is going to be your friend. Everyone plays a role and you got to have thick skin and if you don't then all you will accomplish is nothing. You can complain all you want but it is not going to change the system of how Argonath RPG works. I think it is cool to get shot by a freaking combat weapon but turn around and drop whoever it is and continue with my day. While some of you will get killed and complain. It is a game for a reason so just have fun. If you get killed you get killed just don't complain. I myself rarely report anyone for any rulebreak the only time if it is a hacker. Most of the time there is not an admin online so I have to handle shit myself and finally people know not to mess with me. You just have to adapt yourself to Argonath that is all. Remember "World of its Own" and don't expect your roleplays to be always realistic either like in real life.

This topic is made for people like you. Go through it

Kidnappings are actually boring. Everyone knows how it will go. The kidnapped person might as well go AFK because all he can do is sit still and be on PM or cb to waste time. The kidnappers call the cops and stock on weapons to kill as many as possible, and the cops get another shooting gallery. Is that really fun enough to repeat 100 times daily?

This isn't RS4 anymore. People do have changes with time. Calling 911 after kidnapping barely happens now. We mostly prefer to take revenge from the group by kidnapping the hostage. Whether we kill him/hurt him and leave at hospital/injure him and threw him into water. There are more and many ways we handle these type of situations to make more realistic.

What you and others seem to have forgotten is that we do not mince our words. Want political correct or corpspeak? Go read the news or press releases. That is not throwing a pile of poo on people, just making it clear that those who want to shit the community are invited to do it elsewhere.

What I don't get with ALL of you. Is why people cannot, and absolutely refuse to compromise in their roleplay.
You give and you take. That is really f**king simple to understand. But oooooooohhhhh nope. We must absolutely do it this way, or the other way. Or backwards. or forwards.

The co-existence is what I am defending. Which means that those who try to change rules in order to get their way may be met with a rather direct comment.
The co-existence is also why I am busy bringing back MTA, where a more 'serious' direction has been taken. However the idea is to let it add to the community, bring in new people and players. As soon as it starts to cause division and 'steals' players rather than building on their own strength, it will disappear again.

Times change, and while I'd absolutely love to revert things to what I consider to be the golden ages. It can't and will not happen.

the golden age lies in front of us, never behind us.

Good to hear that. Still when I am entering the server and 50% of the talk is about how to kidnap me it seems not a lot has changed...

You might be kidnapped and thrown to the water or left at the hospital injured, doesn't mean we  would call the cops. :P
