What do you need to roleplay?

[Gandalf]

No blips on the map.

Dioes that mean you do need a map?

[connecticut]

A minimap should remain still yes, but I'd prefer the blips to be removed.

[Gandalf]

We need rules that are clear and yet have no loop holes.

1. No cheats or mods that give advantage over others
2. No flaming or swearing
3. One account per player.

Is that simple and clear enough? I do not see any loophole.

What do you need a minimap for to RP?

[Kaze]

On a serious note and personal views

- No blips
- Money (just for things like getting ana, fuel, eating food, taxi - house is pointless right now)
- One personal vehicle to get you from A to B (type of vehicle depends on your character)
- Creative players - Reject players who do unrealistic actions and form a toxic atmosphere within the server
- Fail trolls - There's always that one cunt that ruins the RP. Only @Daco is welcome here. Everyone else is a fail troll.

All I think of at the moment.

Apart from the game's basic features, all I need are /me and creativity/imagination. Even other players are optional in some scenarios.

Still LOLing at those demanding for an Elesarpee / real life clone. Welcome to the world of creativity and imagination — progress and innovation don't mean copying 1000 other servers.

/l /s /me /em
a stay within the boundaries of medium realism rule, since it's getting tiring when everyone acts like a badass or runs away when a gun is pointed at him
ignore rp - ban rule (unless both parties agreed to doing something without rp, eg. say a quick drug deal when they both have to go off soon)
no CnR style automated scripts such as autosuspection on kill

Long time, old friend. Hope you've been well. 

As far as what's needed? Non-SAMPwise:

• Creativity.
• Imagination.
• A decent vocabulary helps, but isn't required per se.
• Someone at the PLAYER2 position.
• Jelly beans (Magical preferred, but plain are OK too).
• And of course, a bit of time.

In SAMP:

• Removal of /groups and like commands that are regularly abused
• Jelly Beans
• Limitation of /area, as it's regularly abused
• The owners to come back in game more often, even if just to say "hi" (though this is a WANT, not NEED)
• Limitation of radar blips (to visual range only) as its commonly abused
• A chat box to use my nuclear weapons like /me

Of course, these are just my opinions.

Additionally, I would like to take a moment to say thanks, for a decade of amazing memories. Thanks for keeping this odd little oasis going all these years. Thanks to staff, who've tolerated our petty bullshit. Thanks to all the other players, who've helped keep the soul of the original vision alive.  When I first joined Argonath, it was people like you, that took time to interact and explain things, that made me want to stay. People like Pancher, Cutte3r, jcsTodds, GiacJr, and thousands of countless others. Strange....never would have imagined that I would have a chance to take part in such an amazing community. Yeah, there have been assholes. Cheaters. Unfair players. But all the bad is strictly outweighed by the good. Because of all of this, I've met some really interesting people from various parts of the world, chances are I'd never be able to afford to visit otherwise. Because of the Mighty Swedes, and that ban that led to the creation of Argonath, Argonath has become a solid rock in the various storms that have come and gone in my life, and a place to be social when limited by real life.

Hope to see you around in-game some time, instead of just lurking on the forums .

You don't need a minimap to roleplay. However, it is useful for other things which you might need it for out of characterly, such as /heydude and being able to tell what is north, west, south and east which is often used in police pursuits, so it can as well be used in characterly that way.

Why do you need multiple commands to talk?
Do you need guns to RP?

Do you need guns to RP?

I thought the question was something along the lines of 'what are the basics you'd expect on a rp server'
If you want to go barebones then yes, all you need is /l and /me, fact being /me is much less needed than /l as long as there's enough animations. If we go barebones then no, but I expect guns as much as I expect vehicles on a GTA server.

[TiMoN]

Do you need guns to RP?

yes

In some scenarios, They should be way harder to get though. Like extremely harder

[Hevar.]

You need a gang of serious people which have roleplay in their blood =)

Then you need CASH because its the major key to success haha
