ignore rp, avoid rp, not rping = worse than hacking, get banned

[Hevar.]

Would be nice to see what Gandalf says about this..

Anyone is free to come in and drive around, but at least do so respectfully and not like some that come on, speed around crashing into others then driving away.
If someone tries to roleplay with you, at least accomodate them. But sure, driving around or just going around randomly has no issues.

Thank you very much for clearing that up.

[Teddy]

Nah..Teddy expect you to stand there like John Travolta and fight back against the group or SAPD, otherwise it will be ''avoid RP'' haha

I have a feeling you'll be one of the first ones out. Thank god for that.

So.. every time you see someone crash their car you gotta check if he/she's okay or get banned?


Yes.. my example is seriously far fetches.. but so is this rule..

I know that some people just go in Argonath to hang out with friends, to take their stressful situation out by just driving around the map and whatnot, will they all end up banned too?

That random new-player who joins the server and doesn't know what to do and asks an explanation how the server works will be banned because he didn't know what command he should use to properly respond to a situation?

Do you see where I'm going with this?

It's people like you which impeded progress. Whens the last time you've done something progressive? Obviously a new player isn't going to get banned if they don't know. Don't be dumb. This is merely a way to stop people from avoiding roleplaying and to weed out the folks who who not intention of actually participating in roleplay. I even go in sometimes to just drive around... but be ready to actually interact with players. That is after all the entire point of multiplayer games.


Argonath is not a freeroam server, it's a roleplay server.
Argonath is not a cops and robbers server, it's a roleplay server.
Argonath is not a team deathmatch server, it's a roleplay server.
Argonath is not a deathmatch server, it's a roleplay server.
Argonath is not anything else but a roleplay server. Is that really that hard for some of you to comprehend? JUST FUCKING ROLEPLAY.

roleplay. interact. roleplay. interact. say it as much as you need, just get it into your brains.

Simple, if someone tries to roleplay with you, respond.
If you are in a situation where you can roleplay with a person, then roleplay.

If you are driving past someone does that mean you must roleplay with them? No.
If you are flying a plane does that mean you must roleplay with someone driving? No.

If you ran to the plane to escape someone chasing you, well it's rather self explanitory.

What we are getting at is this, take the opportunity to roleplay or don't bother playing. Don't come in-game and expect to drive around stunting at Pershing square for example.
Show some sort of realistic behaviour for the first time in many years within this server.

No more needs to be said.

[Lionel Valdes]

Atleast make a brief stop at an intersection before crossing over.

This. Any reasonable driver - now that we're talking within roleplay - would yield for traffic at intersections, although the player can technically use the radar but for the sake for roleplay it's far more realistic to stop.

@Gandalf

I don't think it matters what Gandalf has to say about this, sure he pays the bills, and I respect that, but he doesn't play on the server, the server should meet the needs of those who are active on it and it seems the majority want a server that is less free roam and more RP, perhaps you could help with that by giving ARA to someone who will actually use it the way it's meant to be used.

[Teddy]

now all of you stop reading this damn topic and get in-game and start interacting, doesn't matter how just do it. Have a party, have a race, open a restaurant, get creative, be creative, do something unique and adventurous. Argonath is what you make it by actions in-game, not what you type on the forums.

People don't even stop when they see a guy reaching the intersection driving on the main road.

What is up with your hostility? He's done nothing wrong and yet you attack him for expressing an exaggerated possibility. Sure, he has made a rather outrageous exaggeration, but it should not be taken so aggressively!

This is not how a member of Administration should act, as neither any of us should.

[Devin]

To give people a better idea of what this is about;

We already implemented a rule regarding roleplay saying that you must roleplay with people when they come to interact with you. Sadly it wasn't widely accepted or acknowledged.
Now however we are stating that there will be punishment linked to that rule for those that fail to adhere to the rule regarding roleplay.

@Teddy.

I just want to say one thing.....never trust your feelings! hahaha =)

pls tell me this is a rule that will STAY and is not something to get more players IG...

[TonySforza]

My God, I didn't expect to see so many retards complaining about RPing in a RP server, good for this damn server for finally making a stance, Jesus fucking Christ.

[Devin]

It is here to stay as it is just a stricter enforcement of roleplay. To keep players logical and to remove the mindset of freeroam/mess around server.

[Marcel]

The players on the server tonight (just now) have demonstrated perfectly what the new rule is about: a large gathering of criminals (50+ players online) from different families having a clean interaction with not a single shot fired. This is what roleplay is about, well done guys!
