Pretty easy slip of the tongue to make and I still don't see what difference it makes. Are you suggesting he knew the character was played by wiro and purposely locked the char up over some vendetta against him? It sounds like the person had enough in game reason to do so. As for the kidnap thing they said they couldn't kill it so I'm assuming they lived. Maybe they saved an event log?

I don't know, it sounds like you know more about the situation than I do or you're reading way too much into things.

VVVV I meant the attempted "pker" stuff which sounded like it was directed at you.

My character was not involved in that kidnapping/pirate stuff. My character just annoying, which was also the reason he was locked up and all roleplay was shut down.

Actually I don't know anything more than what was written in this topic, not even where it happened or which characters were involved. I'm just throwing guesses.

First of all, I thought Wiro played one of the pirate characters I locked up cuz Meem does. So my bad.

Secondly, one of the people I thought Wiro played and a person Meem does play, failed to RP at all when the character they captured was successfully locked up. So I was criticizing them for being hypocritical. I take that back for Wiro cuz his character Rped like crazy, but not for Meem.

Third, to the person saying I had no clue they were going to do what they did, I didn't play the character captured so quit of accusing me of cheating you jerk. I played the character rescuing the captured character and had every reason to be pissed off at those pirates for trying to kill a friend of my character. How is that cheating?

I didn't feel like clarifying this to other people in my posts because my posts were directed solely towards Meem and Wiro. I asked them to shut up about it so that this whole bs wouldn't happen. But it happened anyway cuz people like to talk about things they have no clue about.

Now can this issue die?

Exactly....If there is an issue with how things were played out or CRB's that occured not matter how much they are or aren't based on fact, it is a PD issue and not to be taken up here. Contact PD and leave it to game staff. The rest of us do not want to listen to continued bickering. Agree to disagree and move on.

On another note this topic once again as it was stated before is not to point out specific characters or players and insult or point out their specific faults. I'm sure we could all improve in one way or another. This topic should be meant as a guide, to point out general bad rp and ways to resolve it not as a means to insult or upset players. Drop it and lets get back to the reason for this topic.

Also: Cantr is not about "we can't" or "you don't".

The game allows for the action so thus it must be accepted.

All of you could have tried using some nicer language, :) Then shins wouldn't have hurt as badly.

And on bad RP...

I haven't seen much the last few weeks, yay!

I don't know......

I mean when some random dude comes out of freaking nowhere and is barley twenty talking about "slave rings" you gotta question what the player actually knows about Cantr. ;)

Can someone say, "CRB"? :shock:

For the record, I wasn't referring to Jaxon as being a CRBer...His oddly worded statement (which seko got my thinking on that correct) reminded me of a thing I hate to see which denotes bad RP to me.

I was in no way trying to accuse anyone, I wouldn't do that.

Anyways..Bad Rp is bad..

I'd like to add something that some of you might argue against.

That is something I call "adding to much".

"Adding to much," You ask. "That just sounds stupid," You shout.

Well... no. I'm talking people who have overly drawn out descriptions of characters, over, and over, and over, and over, again. Those that draw out things unnecessarily. Such as the "extended death scene". There is NO FREAKING REASON for someone to take SEVERAL REAL LIFE HOURS worth of RP to die.

Sorry but that makes me not WANT to remember or KNOW the characters player.

"Thank you for spamming my event page with worthless RP about how epic the pain is. I was waiting for the event so I could bury your annoying BS and pretend like it never happened."

If your character "isn't important"... I'm sorry but adding "all of that" just makes you seem like a prick. A prick who is starved for attention and doesn't care about anything other then their "epicness".

Those that don't "grasp" that I, as a player, clearly don't wanna RP WITH YOU and continue with whatever you were doing ANYWAY. (If you get away with a behavior ONCE consider it a gift and don't take that for granted)

Those that DEMAND RP/try and force it. I mean, sometimes the mechanics ARE ENOUGH and adding that "extra" just bogs things down and makes it tedious.

OH, getting mad IC over things that are not actually there. BOY IS THAT POOR! People who argue.... and argue.... and argue... that "whatever" IS THERE SEE IT NOA YOU DUMB ASS just make me want to turn my characters into bloodthirsty killers. Trying to FORCE anything on a player is BAD. I don't care... let them not accept if you are so "good at RPing" you can work around their "un-acceptance" anyway.

I've got more but lets "pause" here for a bit.

An unnamed woman in her eighties killed one of my characters for no reason he had 3 personalities but he was sane.

Never said anything to him either, or roleplay whatsoever, just said get out and after a day (couldn't get on) he was thrown back in jail and when he tried to communicate, was killed

Eh... bobbogum.

That's not "poor RP" that's "no RP with you". With a character that old they tend to "shift to" a certain type of player character and yours clearly did not "meet their fancy" enough to avoid "deletion".

Sometimes you just don't wanna have to deal with a whiny death and want the other person to just shut up before it starts.

Sometimes the PLAYER is the problem. I mean the player of the soon to be dead, as they just won't "play fair" so then the other eventually just assumes no one will and would rather let the dice rule as then they can't be argued with. They can be "argued at" but not "with". XD

And sometimes still its annoying to deal with a sleeping guy who wasn't sleeping some time ago during but once he/she is in prison they "clam up" so the assumption is that the player of the, again, soon to be dead character has let this character to die

Note: I try not to kill characters nor do I have any that old. I am, however, sick of the "someone killed me with no RP thus they suxzor at anything but being PKers GRR" posts. Same with the prisoners who don't have guards who RP and verse visa. I REALLY don't wanna hear it anymore.... FROM ANY OF YOU!
