New fun way for players to Roleplay!!
 

I'm back by the way :)

Anyways this is NOT an roleplaying lesson or an idea pending staff. This is a system i have thought of myself. Roleplaying on graal kingdoms can seem it does not make sense at all and players who actually try to Rp well can still muck things up.

I have made up 3 commands which you use in the form of brackets surrounding your action to tell fellow players what type of action it is you are doing.

Bracket 1 (( )) We all use these, they are unchanged. These are free action brackets. Basically actions like sword slashing, kissing and ect can be blocked if another player types an action inside to do so.

Bracket 2 :: :: These brackets are unblockable actions. Say for example you Rp as a powerful wizard. If you freeze somebody or knock them unconcious they must comply and cannot say 'spell fails' as a powerful wizard would not fail. You will remain in manipulation of the rper's action until he stops it, however... you cannot kill off players or repeatedly stop players rping with this!

Bracket 3 { } Instructions! instruct fellow rpers in situations. Say if you are fighting for example and you can only die one way or only vunrable at a certain time, instruct these people when to strike and so on.

Following these simply commands would turn rp into a little mini play. Maybe you'll even have spectators who knows. It would make rp a lot more fun.

I'm not forcing you to adopt these its just it makes it more fun for everyone if you do. Main reason i pointed this little system out was for my upcoming Rp event i'll be hosting sometime.

Thanks for your time everyone.

Chris you might want to note that (( )) are OOC bracket and actions are * *.

Outside of a few grandstanders/elitists, (who maybe do this occasionally. Maybe. Occasionally.) nobody does things this way. Stop trying to turn 2K2 into Valikorlia: Gold Edition.

I hate your ideas, so I wont even read this thread and just make a spam post :spam:

I advice against roleplay on graal kingdoms.
The only effect it can have, is fun, and this fun is often ruined by people who say like: "Omg lol haha teh coo' rprz in bomboria, laugh at dem!"

Its hard to ignore, because it completely ruins the atmosphere.

Damn it Myth...You're dropping another set of Rep for that fail idea. -_-'

RP is usually a good idea, but real rp is impossible on gk.
:D

xD
 

okay i'll shut up then lol.

*smacks Chris with a foam cowboy hat*

Terrible idea to force a specific RPing style.

I see nothing wrong with acting in character, but I see a lot wrong with acting in character and then formatting your own behavior.

lol..?

People rp all the time just that you need to be around them and not the ppl who laugh and ruin it for other ppl. all the kingdoms do it. mmt does it. i sometimes hold a rp event. although i lost my spark for doing it. thank you ppl who said it was a waste. i say to them. GOTO ZONE AND KILL. GK is a rp server with pking abilities. Zone is for killing only. Go there and leave us rpers alone.

Only a few roleplay on kingdoms. You can't exactly shut out the people who just want to play the game. Also, it's a large overstatement to say all kingdoms do it.

I never see you on Drae. never. during the day (my time zone) there are rpers on there.

that is true but Draenin still has a point.

I see Drae on now and again. :3

And always say hey now and again. ^^

I ran out of gold recently, and someone renewed me. Then my motherboard died. That explain anything for ya? Also, don't act like I don't even play the game when I've gotten to know a fair share of people and what they do all day in-game.

To be honest, I do not feel like reading everyones posts to the oringal thread. However I have atleast skimmed over it all. The fact about GK is there just isn't enough content to keep an RP story going everyday. You have to do something else and make things up as you go. Putting in some RP system would only do more damage then good at this point. Perhaps in the future it might be nice, if we can get enough players again for a decent RP event or two each week.

Then theres the fact that kingdoms are supposed to actually teach and enforce RP rules. A little RP fact is bomboria trade is entirely non RP, and so such system would have to be disabled for that place. And theres other ways to declare out of character rather then them uggly brackets, such as -ooc. Personally I like the -ooc, its easier to remember to addon to a line or sentence then to find the brackets while holding down shift key. But thats a preferance thing.
