Where did all the roleplay go?

Bah, who cares? This place is dying, and there's no idea trying to deny it.

The server has no monetary system. The whole economy is enormously inflated due to the ridiculous attempts to keep new, younger players happy by giving out massive amounts of free cash created from nothing. Admins are busy kicking people who accidently use capital letters instead of sorting out more direct problems, example stated above (Do you honestly think that I didn't report it?). The old players are leaving because they either grow up or grow sick of this, and they're being replaced by young kids who can't speak English and behave according to their level of maturity (pre-puberty.) Sad but true, there's no way to restore this place to what it once was, especially since you aren't allowed to give any sort of criticism - whether it's constructive or not (Hello DDR).

To be honest, I'm not really sure why I'm writing this since I don't play this game anymore, so I don't really care if someone will get the chance to read it and understand my point before this post gets deleted (censored) by yet another ass-licking moderator.

Thanks for the previous five years though, I guess.

Have a nice day.

It appears you have a problem with Argonath itself, if so, why are you still here?

[Jubin]

Just a simple reply which has been hanging on my mind for a long time:
There used to be all types of roleplays found in Argonath RPG until people tried to protect Argonath RPG from moving on into new scripts which other servers had and new roleplay styles (talking about IC OOC Metagaming Powergaming aka roleplaying realisticly with limits) People who tried to roleplay like that were disrespected "LEET roleplayers go away", everyone tried to keep argonath unique from other servers by denieing some ideas which could had actually brought people more together... We could have multiple styles RP in this server but unfortunately players or neither the vision support advancing roleplay or scripts which have been seen in some other servers.

Well you can have all the metaplaying,powergaming, IC/OOC in your own clan/group circle of friendship. What was really the trouble as far as I remember was that everyone who used those aforementioned conditions tried to make that a standard according to which measure the abilities of roleplaying skills.

Why do you bother asking this pathetic question if the point is something different than just 'I don't like this place anymore' ?

Some points you said are true, as a player from 2009, i know exactly what you mean.

[Chris_Knight]

Why all of you "veterans" of 2008-2009 and w/e have no ability to roleplay while Jcstoods does it daily?

[Nathan_Alexandrov]

call my crazy but I hate the way no one gets hurt on the server, seriously its the opposite of the real world for example

Real world
Call 999/911 "I cut my thumb its bleeding a lot, HELP!"

In Game
*Head on collision @ Mulholland*
"Ah its nothing"

The only real world aspect of being a Paramedic is you tend to get calls in clumps like for example you'll spend the whole day waiting at the hospital then five calls come in at once, just typical..

[Alan.Wake]

Roleplay? During and after 2011, every roleplay i created ended up with either:

1- Cops/SWAT preparing for deathmatch mode. Robbing a bank? Prepare to waste 30 minutes just to die by the constant spawning.
2- Some person complaining to his friend who turns out to be an admin about a certain person. You know of whom i am talking about and he isn't the only one.
3- Rookies thinking that a gun fight is the only way of solving a problem. I wonder if they learned this or are by themselves..
4- Freecops/Regular cops 24/7 chasing suspects with smg/combat/m4 on high paced vehicles. <Should i roleplay?

The only roleplay that seems to work is with the Bikers/Mexican/Ballas gangs. They have least some sense of roleplay. Now, i do like to roleplay criminal and not by the law side, etc, but having those types of clowns running around makes it very unappealing.

This is my first point of view, not a rant or anything.

Please name every player who registered in that time period (by exact name please), or don't make damn generalities taking a stab at every player in that range. Roleplay exists, you need to find it, or shit just make it up as you go.

[Maxy]

The roleplay left with all the players that were told,  "If you don't like it here, then leave."

The very statement that says to everyone, "Hey, we aren't ever going to listen to criticism, if you don't like it, go somewhere where your opinion matters."

Many people are starting to take that option.

I agree, that pushed many people away from Argonath because Argonath isn't ready for a change.

[newguy]

If you want your RP back,you gotta start RPing by yourselves.


I never have RP,because I'm not doing/getting involved in any. If I tried doing something about it,I'm sure the matters would change.






You people should probably try harder.
