Hi Guys, I have not been in the server for a long time. But I know these issues and I understand your concern @Scott1shR1pper The main issue over the 10 years I've been doing RP for is that RP is an open sourced game. It has no solid definition and you could make it anything you want to be. Because there is no foundation for the game that can be agreed to from community to community it creates this cluster of what RP should be since all these people are coming from wherever. It's not like Call of duty, or dead by daylight that have objectives, goals, whatever. They have a specific way the game is supposed to be played and there really isn't any other way to play it. because RP's goal is non existent and instead your own people can call just about anything good RP as long as they like what they're experiencing. Also this thing about "Win" and "Lose" in RP it doesn't exist for a second. Why do you feel you can win or lose at RP we are roleplaying a life simulator here in the city of New York. So is life just a game then? I mean I don;t really think we see life as a game but like. if you don't get away from a robbery and the cops catch you. Did you lose? No, you just continue Roleplaying from there. did the cops fail to catch you? Maybe that was just meant to happen like anything else in life, you didn't lose anything. You catch them next time around. There always tends to be more RP from getting caught then not being caught because there are more interaction between that.
Like @Crunch Said you get out what you put into RP. It's a gamemode that heavily lies on creativity too and real life experience can actually help you do better in roleplay at times where applicable. If crims get salty that they lost their shit and the police caught them? Make something out of that take a bad situation and turn it into a positive interaction where you can have some great laughs with your friends. If you're legit being salty because you are losing a fake item coded into a game or a number on your screen. You've got issues there. those are the people that need to be shown to the door because they're not here to have fun. We're here to have fun. As far as what RP is fair. Again take that negative and turn it into a positive. So you got caught, so you got away? Now what, USE THAT! continue the RP and do something fun between you and the cop to make that entertaining. The whole purpose of the game too is to have fun. There will be no crying like you were born yesterday that's unacceptable. If a cop tazes you off the bike omg he must be winning. I mean I guess you can think of it that way.....or you could continue to RP it out have fun and then address it to them in discord how you feel. But do it in a civil manner it's ok to talk about RP and how it could improve or always go better but that doesn't mean it has to change becuase you wanted to have a little bike chase. Use the challenge of getting tazed off the bike before you could get away as a fact of ok I got caught maybe I should try something else better to outplay the cops next time. You can use it to grow your characters story. So at the end of the day any bad interaction where you quote win or lose erase that from your head. Take what seems negative be creative build on it and make it positive and you'll appreciate RP a lot more. And for those who want to be an actual baby about it instead of actually enjoying all the RP that is going on. The door is waiting for them.
