RP Character info

[Ivan_Dzeba]

Hey, I tought of making a board that is releated to your RP character, like in that board, you post information about your  RP character. The person should write like things about him, about his life, but all about your IG Character, not IRL. What u think, should we have that. I would really like to know things about people's RP characters.

Argo doesn't limit users to a single roleplay character. They can roleplay as many as they want, any time they want, using different names, genders, ethnicities, and cultures.

So? Most players are usually roleplaying the same character.

If they care about their characters the enough to make a topic about it. they will also will care to use the "Modify" button and update it if his character changes to a different one.

No.

This would mess up meeting people so much.. If you want to know someone, go up to them and talk to them, hire a spy, whatever..
Instead of reading a forum topic and then metagaming to use all that information.

Law Enforcement: Hey, you're under arrest.
Guy: Wait, what?
Law Enforcement: We read your forum topic, it says that you did some criminal activities.

Guy:

It's not a diary, it's a topic about your RP character. I.E: Name, Age, Description, Biography, etc. Plus to that, his topic shouldnt be used in game as you said, even if Argonath does not supports Metagaming they can't arrest you for something they saw on a forum board, because if that would be case alot of people would be getting under arrest due to their RP ss on the groups and families board.

There's no actual point for this, we're a small community and we pretty much know each other. As you said, it's roleplay information, so just go and find out who you care about through roleplay.

Will never happen, Law Enforcement Agencies need RP evidence to take action against someone.

Most is not everyone...and most actually change their characters quite often.

If they care about their characters the enough to make a topic about it. they will also will care to use the "Modify" button and update it if his character changes to a different one.

So then we have a board full of hundreds, if not thousands, of topics explaining who a character you roleplay is so people don't need to learn it through actual roleplay instead?

...and then metagaming to use all that information.

Argo doesn't recognize metagaming.

"and then using information obtained from sources outside of the roleplay situation to influence further decisions or actions within that roleplay"

Big mistake in your comment. Argonath RPG is not a small community, we are big, really big.

Not at all. It's diverse, but not big.

If it will encourage and stimulate roleplay by presenting your own character and sharing them with the community in order to inspire people, I don't see a reason not to.
Nobody here said it only has to be limited to one character. If you want to roleplay 45 different characters on Argonath and you like to share each individual story, it can be done within the same topic.

However if you have for example a criminal character, and you describe your criminal activity, law enforcement can't arrest you for what they've read on the forum out of game.
