Need clarification on "cant force RP rule"

[Dave]

Then you should go play a game that includes statistics. You're fault, you refuse it.
I recommend you to actually start RPing. Not insulting Gvardia style of RP. As Lyrical said: Respect, its not up to anyone to judge.
The quote you posted above is the actually an automatic transmit to SUCCESS with skiping process of FAIL/SUCCESS in /em.
You cannot evade it the IC RP, as you can see

I can evade it. Easily. I can just say "no" and walk off, and if I get shot and killed - it is deathmatch. Simple. I know the rules and i've been enforcing them for nearly 4 years on and off.

Tell me ONE thing. Define Roleplay. Right here right now. Go on, tell us what roleplay means, we'd all be enlightened to see if you actually know.

whats a IC?

IC - In character in generally(You use it when you talk and act/RP).Adapting IC talk to your desired character requires skill.

Shortest I could

Dave, dear sir. I know as much as Wikipedia knows about RP. because I learned what's RP from there.
I suggest you to go there, right here, right now. You'll surely be "enlightened".

This is Rock Stars RP, not RLRP, not normal RL, so chuck your shitty definitions out the window and live by Argonath's definition

I'm asking you to define it. What is your personal definition of RP? Everyone has their own. If you're directing me to wikishit, then clearly you do not know what roleplay is yourself.

[Aksel]

I'd not say "REAL" roleplayers...
Well, each person decide how they want to RP,

As long as they don't enforce it on other.

[Void]

.... as you can see, you need to learn that Argonath does not set standards of RP. People who adopted RP in gaming actually created is and evolved. Argonath just passes it on its player, in their own way.

Here, Giac dear sir. I respect Argonath vision, and I RP to my maximum and coexist with all Argonath players.
Argonath made it free, loosen, and I respect that eases a lot of characters In game, but there are some of us that like serious RP.So we gather and RP together. The misunderstanding come when a text book RPer meets a free RPer. Which is in this case. None can force RP on other. Free RPer must not force RP on a text book RPer and vice versa.

Dave, that is a poor attempt to provoke. You can do it better, I'm sure. Now go to wiki pedia, please, I shared  my source of knowledge with you.

[Aksel]

Funny how in every thread some niggas come and change the topic.

The "niggas" who changed the topic were Giac and Dave, as they started to make fun out of Gvardia style of RP.

Argonath Vision states that we do not want Argonath to be complicated and full of rules and complex ideas, OOC, IC, S/F, etc etc are all complex concepts to a new player who has never seen RP before...
Therefore you are not respecting the vision..

[Dave]

Argonath RPG was founded in 2006 with a clear target.
The founders were upset with the community they left because of how people treated each other, and how there was a lack of recognition from the administration for the efforts of new players and those who were not in the favour of leaders.
There for it was decided to create a new community that would be open to all people, and where new players were treated same as regulars and veterans. With a new community this was not a problem, as everyone was new and the only veterans were the main leaders.
With the growth of the community over the years, there have been a number of players who do not know about the origins of our community, and the goals that were set when creating it. As a result, there has been a clash between people who feel that they are entitled because of being regulars and the goals and ideas of the owners and developers.
To clarify this, we present our vision.

1.   Argonath was, is, and will always be a community that should be friendly to new people. We will continue to be  a breeding ground for new people to discover the fun of playing by imagination. This is what has brought us official status and creates a regular flow of new players in to our server, keeping the community alive and feeding it.
2.   Argonath gives equal rights to new, experienced and admin players. We do not discriminate between players, and having admin rights or being a long time player does not give any of our players rights to act as better, higher or having more status as another.
3.   Argonath does not offer privileges against payment. The equal status prohibits any possibility of payment for extra possibilities, rights or money in game.
4.   Argonath strives to keep rules simple and understandable. Our community was created as free RP, based on imagination and creativity. We will not ever support it changing in to a jungle of rules that are impossible to understand, follow and adhere to. Our rules will remain the minimal needed to stop players who wish to disturb the fun in playing from doing so, not more and not less.
5.   Argonath leaders will accept new rules and scripts only if they fit the vision. If any suggestion is limiting the possibility to play for new players, strives to give advantage to more experienced players, or creates a more complex rule that would make it hard to understand or follow, it will be rejected, regardless of how much support there is from the community
6.   Argonath players are, regardless of point 5, free to implement within their group or play guidelines and habits of playing. However they are not allowed to force people outside their group to use the same rules, resort to flaming, insulting, or trying to excluse players who do not play by non-official group rules.
7.   Argonath administration team will devote their time primarily to keep players following the guidelines. They apply for this knowingly, and will be given rights and levels according to their devotion, ability to help out others and follow the guidelines given to them. Admin rights shall never be given as reward or to show status. Promotions in the admin team will be based on the perception of the developers and main admins, and shall not be given based on seniority. If at any time admins feel not able to continue their devotion to admin guidelines, they are invited to resign. Resigning from admin rights or losing them should not reflect on the players status or recognition as valuable member of the community.
8.   Argonath recognizes that a part of the community is underage. There for the following shall be prohibited:
a.   Swearing, flaming and insulting. Within roleplay this is allowed very limited and strictly bound to the situation. If there is any doubt about the slang/language used is for ropleplay only,  administration has full right to take any measures they find necessary.
b.   Promotion of usage of alcohol, drugs and other stimulating substances. We respect the freedom of choice, however people should be respecting that others who have different beliefs and choices have this right as well
c.   Explicit sexual content. While within roleplay and discussion a certain freedom is granted, the underage community should be protected from eplicit sexual actions or content.
d.   Cyberharrasment, stalking and bullying of players based on their belief, views, race or choices in life.
9.   Argonath bases its community on respect and friendship between players of all nations.  This means that those who feel that they are allowed to disrespect others, consider others as inferior or treat them as such will be offered the choice to either change their views or leave the community. This includes any groups of players in game.
10.   Argonath will remain as open, friendly and strong community for people worldwide who wish to enjoy playing a game based on imagination and creativity.

I hope everyone will take the time to read this, and take this as their core values.

Read it and understand it.

I am not provoking, I am simply asking for your definition of roleplay, to prove to me, and the rest of the people here that you know what it actually means.
Oh and, Wikipedia =/= Argonath

The "niggas" who changed the topic were Giac and Dave, as they started to make fun out of Gvardia style of RP.

With a valid argument, might I add.

Wikipedia = Argonath. How did Argonath become RP if not through an idea?
Modified idea if I may add.

Yes you may.

Running around with weapons 24/7, shooting cops, causing fights and ignoring administration....what  are you then?

/em [[[[[[[[[But omg Grz, you have to use OOC chat when doin rps omg]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]
/em[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[S/F??????????]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!

Like this:
/l [[ yo dawg i herd i liek ooc [[ so I put ooc in ur ooc ]] so u can ooc while u ooc ]]

Also for all you ignorants, who don't read my posts. I never said I FORCE someone to RP ZOMFG SRSBSNS. I represent few of those who use OOC and IC.I actually stand beside Gvardia because of the whole OOC and IC mocking. If they like it, they use it. This is a game for god sakes.

Clearly, you know nothing of Argonath's history, or the history of the people who created it.

Welcome to the club, Dave.
Argonath is RPG, but it evolved from the roots of RP. Through time Argonath shaped and became as it is today.
For this I used common sense.
