Non-RPers Unite!

[Dragon]

+1 for starting this thread. The pro-RP side has had General spammed up for a couple weeks now, and SE needs to realize there's a good amount of players that don't want anything to do with RP'ing.

For the RPers on Besaid: Stay on Besaid. It can only profit your fantasy teaparties even more now. The fanatic RPers have given you all such a bad name and have established Besaid as the server to either flock to for RP or run from if you hate it. I foresee several players (myself included) that will be fleeing Besaid for more normal land, while RPers from other servers will most likely take our place. This is a win/win for you.

For non-RPers: It would be nice to have a demographic of servers that have the least RPing. As a previous FFXI player (and it seems FFXI had very little RP), I am looking at the Ridill server with hopes maybe the FFXI population is higher there. I am also hoping perhaps FFXI's "elite" factor has carried over to Ridill, as a majority of Besaid's players are thaums running around with vit rings and don't understand any basic game concepts at all. Hell the other day I had people shouting at me that "parses are stupid and people need to get off that shit". lolwat?

For everyone saying "lolirony these guys don't RP but they play an MMORPG": I have never liked the term "RPG", since it's obviously just a video game with a story you read like a book, you don't even play a role in it. If anything they should be called novels, as it's just a big book that you're having to complete events to get more pages of. In FFXI and FFXIV's instance, it should be called MMOG since that's more what it is. That said, many of us are angry because we want our traditional gameplay while SE tells us whatever story they have written, and here come the RPers wanting to turn the whole thing into one big LARP.

Cool story bro.

Nice one man, did you learn that meme on your epic MB: MSI Pro-E X58; OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit Edition; CPU: Intel i7-950 3.06GHz; GFX: EVGA Geforce GTX580 3GB GDDR5; RAM: 3x4GB Corsair Dominator GT 1600MHz DDR3-SDRAM; HDD: 2x1TB Samsung F3 7200RPM; Optical: Pioneer Blu-Ray Burner computer?

You're a real OG.

Actually, as much as I DO NOT share his perspective of "hating role-players" he has a good point. They have spammed the crud out of the front page of the forums with "support what the RP want" threads, and continued to post and bump em, to keep several on the front page at once for seeral days.

Your negative posts in that thread only help.

And last I looked, until today, it was kept within one fairly constructive thread. In fact, there are several threads that blew up all over the forums today about server topics of all kinds (that are quickly being closed due to their duplicate nature). Not just RP.

WTH are you talking about? I just clear as day specified that he openly hates RPers, and that I do not share that perspective.

And care to specify what negative post I had? I have been openly supportive of RPers on multiple threads untill they stop ready before they post and grouped me and others with the haters. Then again if you read my post you would know that.

My first comment on the RP threads was rather posotive, and based on my experiences, and a few RPers posted that they appreciated my comments. Clearly you would know that also if you actually read all of the post instead of refering to the most recent fools post and comments and going off what they said.

And by the way, how does the fact that they are deleting them change the fact that there were 7 on the first forum page at one time?

Actually, you can point the finger at Brigandier and a few others for that. They were so nice to start a discussion on the thread that's kept it at the front page for awhile.
