SE, please designate a Role Play friendly server!

[Jynx]

Personaly I say "Bah" to further fragmenting the communities. I like my server to have a mix of everything, NA, JP, EU, Roleplayers, Casual players, Hardcore players...ect.

I'd rather not everyone be huddled into their own little corner where they feel safe and warm.

unfortunately special interest groups dont agree with that, they want to feel special by having something of their own
its why unofficial servers for certain things work real well, you can get everyone together still, but once they designate a server new and official all the special interests will run to it

Except when you don't have it recognized, communities spread around all servers and grow thin, and die out. To avoid that you need people on the same server. You just don't get it, being part of the majority non-RP playerbase, how essential it is to have all RPers on one server for the community to thrive, not to just linger, but thrive. Your arguments don't get too much traction because this ignorance of the topic at hand is evident in each post.

Ok, so you have 2 choices in the end then

1) Go unofficial only and have everyone who joins attempt to flock to the server, and have a wide variety of players, not only RPists, and no one would get seperated from their friends ever since they wont be forced to move to an official server

2) Go official, everyone who wants to RP goes to the official server, those who do not want to sever ties dont, and then we hear complaints about how the community is now split because you were forced to make a chocie due to having a special interest group.


Either way, you end up with players complaining about 1 thing or another. Either they complain that the server isnt official(which it wont be cuz its unfair to force players onto an official server for a special interest) or you get complaints that people were split up(which is by choice since its your choice to go to an official server so you chose to be split from friends if you do it)



There is no ignorance, its all pretty much fact, people are already complaining about it(go look, seriously, they have) so its a lose lose situation for complainers
but either way, the RP community will survive, the difference is basicaly how you do it


The problem with your posts at this point is no matter what I say you will go out of your way to bash me, and thats not ignorance on my part, but just immaturity on your part. I have been giving ALOT of positive feedback but you apperently just dont care

TheVedis, it's difficult to see that positivity when you 1) amusedly call us RPists 2) openly admit that you troll roleplayers in public and 3) go on a tirade like this.

I've tried to defend what's fair for everyone, but with attitudes like this, it's hard not to prefer that SE officially designate Balmung the RP server and leave it up to the haters to transfer if they're not happy. I seriously can't see how an official designation would change your gameplay, other than make it harder for you to openly insult the RP community.

1) I will now and forever call them RPists, sorry, but if you have no sense of humor thats not my fault
2) I only troll RPists who are at my linkshells spot in Uldah or who are in the middle of a damn camp(broken water mostly back in the day)
3) Ive been more then civil, and reasonable, and others bash me cuz i dont agree with their views, then i get called out as being in the wrong? Yeah, sounds like the 13 forums to me.

Dont look at my attitude, go back and seriously take a look at those who respond to anyone who doesnt agree with their views in these type of threads. People do not want discussions, they dont even want answers, they want praise, and I dont give that so im labeled as a forum troll, and the bad guy(i swear im not trolling people most of the time, and when i do, its usualy more in a comedic sense)

As ive stated in my views since the begining almost in this thread

If you want your own server, fine, dont force people into it though, this view is the most universaly fair to EVERYONE. And for posting it, i have instead been bashed by several people who are claiming its not fair they have to be the ones to transfer off due to them wanting something special done for them.

Yeah, thats kind of funny to me Rowyne, when several of us were on the side of RPers, and I for one made several posotive comments about my experiences with you folks on my server, just to be insulted, bashed and labels for disagreeing with you here. Any negativity you and your fellow RPist get from this point on from us, you brought on yourselves.

Your idea of positive comments is calling us 'haters' and 'bigots'? That's when people got on the defensive with you.

(And trust me, I would love to link your post, but the forums mods deleted it. However, I am sure there are several people in this thread who would be happy to corroborate.)

I've come to find it slightly amusing that the only time I post on these wretched forums is when I see something so incredibly asinine that I just have to throw the spotlight on it. But I think these two things take the cake.

1) I will now and forever call them RPists, sorry, but if you have no sense of humor thats not my fault
2) I only troll RPists who are at my linkshells spot in Uldah or who are in the middle of a damn camp(broken water mostly back in the day)

Man you two are some pieces of work. I suppose we should all kneel to your benevolence that you found it somewhere in your beautiful hearts to make a generous emotional contribution and support the community, but now that someone made a point everyone should be ashamed, and you will now continue to be jerks. When you were jerks in the first place.

Sometimes I wonder how people like this go through life actually living. I like to pretend that there's some sort of air pump attached to them that allows them to keep breathing, or they have some sort of person that has to supervise them at all times so that they don't end up stabbing themselves in their own eyes with a fork.

This is why we can't have nice things. Where'd all the nice people go?
