Well yeah a few people are able to roleplay and entertain themselves, but to maintain such an argument is basically saying that you can entertain yourself on your own. That's fantastic, go play singleplayer. This is a multiplayer server, so surely we should all try to play TOGETHER.
I think you're just mad because I'm already half-way done with CCA Ascend to the top RPG 2012.But on a serious note, I do agree with you on many levels. The quality of RP here is very low, contrary to my comments when I first came. Having the CCA teach new members doesn't seem to work either, most of the people who come are down-right retarded. And I say that with all due respect. If you've attempted to teach one of the un-teachable, you know what I mean. One of the things I think contributes to the shit-quality RP is the map. We looks like some half-ass'd DarkRP server with combine models. We need to fix the canon. We need to filter the idiots in both the administration team and the policies they follow.We need to change OOC aspects, such as the map. We need to improve on making better RP for the citizens. There has not been a big organization of anti-civil citizens in forever. I think we need to open more doors for them to create a nice atmosphere for them to flourish. And I don't mean give them all guns and say "alright, you lead (so and so)".But on a (un)serious note.I am half-way done with CCA Ascend to the top RPG 2012.
I have a question, because any answer I can come up with is devoid of logic.WHY is HL2RP as stale and boring as it is? Why do we demote admins and leave routine stuff like D6 sweeps or semi-large decisions up to Roflwaffle? Why are units reprimanded for not patrolling in a circle whenever they are inside the Nexus? Why do we seem to throttle all attempts at decent roleplay? Literally nothing happens ever. The ONLY reason anyone plays here is because of the volume of players or because they don't know that there are smaller but much richer servers. There are no real attempts to actually provide citizen roleplay (Oh the CWU, with like 5 members, 2 of whom are active), no real attempts to provide CCA roleplay rather than CCA ascend-to-the-top RPG 2012 edition and there is nothing to provide a decent roleplay environment.So many people on the server are poor roleplayers or they are minges, and who can blame them, because there isn't anything to do or anyone to practice on. It seems many CCA units feel that making citizens face the wall and /me puts hands behind back is the foundation of entertaining roleplay. I mean, Ration Distribution underlines this...we put it on a cycle because people seem to think that leaving a machine free to all would "take away roleplay." Roleplay...you mean standing in a line facing forward and saying nothing until you walk through a door, state your name and CID in a line or two and then pick up an item and fuck off before you get detained for hanging around.Roleplay is stale. I don't see why. Someone please explain why.
Yea, I agree. We have too few events because they need owner auth. Who thinks that SAs need to be able to do this aswell? Maybe we need to make an event log for the admins, have an event, log it so that everyone knows when the last was so event spam won't be a problem.

Good to know Kronic. Knowing that an owner considers this problems serious enough to fix is good.
