Cantr IS getting boring. And the problem is, a lot of the people who are bored are a lot of the outstanding role players because they have no one to RP with up to their standards. So, the more boring it gets for them, the more often they will quit and the worse Cantr will become, unless soon it starts becoming more exciting.

Um...
You may be right, but what silent consortium do you speak for, and what are your demands? :lol:
Yours is the first post addressing the 'boring' position, and you really aren't giving enough information to discuss...

I guess we're not up to her calibre of rp.

Revaneal, you go get the bleach; Industriallist, get that rug out; I've got my bone knife; now let's make this "Opposition" dissappear.

If one is bored, chances are that one is a boring person. Make each place you are at, the place to be. Its not my job to entertain you. I entertain myself and if people enjoy my rants, great, if not, I'll live.

Okay, ya good idea, let's all be jerks. I wasn't saying I was one of the people that was a better role player. In fact, I'm a terrible role player, and I know that's why my characters are boring. I just know that a lot of good RPers are quitting because so many people are playing shitty characters and replaying old characters.

I don't know what you're talking about, "a lot of good RPers are quitting..." Since when? Many quit due to outside problems; work, school, friends, etc...not due to cantr usually. Names?

I agree with Nitefyre. I had quit but I'm back now. I don't know where I'd rate on a scale of 1 to 10 for RPing, but I'd say that I'm pretty good. The reasons I had to leave for the time was purely outside.....Like my new Job. There will always be stupid people out there, IRL and IG so we just have to deal with it.

I've been too long I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm let loose

Well fck you all too.

I voted "a little boring" for several reasons.

First, because the only other option was "cantr's the BEST".
The best what? Thing ever? Nah. That'd be a Nutella/Marshmallow Fluff sandwich. The best computer game? Probably.

Second, because some places are just chock-full of stupid and/or annoying characters.

Third, because the cantr world has gotten so much more advanced in the two years I've been playing, a lot of the rough spots have been ironed out, even in relatively new areas like K-island. One of my characters is so bored with life there that they're leaving completely for somewhere more exciting.

Fourth, it tends quickly to draw up every available instant of free time I give it. Which is cool, and all--I like being addicted as much as the next guy. But when my grades/relationships start to suffer, I gotta back off. I deleted my five most boring characters today in an effort to simplify. I was going to quit completely, as much as I love the game (which is a lot), I thought maybe the time had come to let go, as so many older players have done. I couldn't go through with it, though.

Fifth, I feel like there's a severe lack of interesting characters these days. Not unusual or ostentatiously weird characters, mind you--those are a dime a dozen. I mean actual interesting characters. A lot of people are either imitations of older, better characters, or indistinguishable from their players' other characters, or just another face in the crowd. I know, I know, real life is like that too, but there's 6 billion people there and only a few thousand here.

Sixth, ...I don't really have a sixth. I just wanted to let you know I could count to six.

Oh, and not thinking cantr's the greatest thing EVAR (sic) isn't a crime. Certainly not one worthy of being pickleraped and bleached.

Before everyone got so aggressive, I thought I had asked for a legitimate clarification. It looks as if that kind of got lost somewhere...

@west:
1) I would say cantr is the best in any reasonable domain...but that's just me, not required belief.
2) You're right. I don't know if I would say that makes it boring...
3) There are always more rough spots to be found/created. No-were stays frontier forever. Unless there was some sort of major war. Make or find your own fronteir, or find your way to live in civilization.
4) I don't see the 'boring' there. Sad, yes.
5) I'm not sure I know what you want...I would try to fulfill it, at least. But I certainly don't imitate anyone.

*Gives car keys to Nitefyre then pours ice cold water on West* Hey, chill the f*** out.

I believe saying Cantr is boring is not a valid statement. It may irratate you when a few of your chars is bored or you run into annoying players, but bored wouldn't exactly be an accurate word for this. Everyone I know who plays Cantr at least have one cool char or char that keeps them playing so it can't be that boring.

I don't think anybody thinks Cantr is like the most greatest thing ever (Especially people who's been introduced to sex. :) )but we all love it and will defend it at all cost.

Most people will never quit Cantr unless circumstances occur in RL that leaves you with no choice.

Just my opinion and I would really appreciate if people wouldn't get offended by simple comments.
a day without cantr, is a day spent in bed convulsing and suffering from withdrawl
