I think anything with a small download rp that requires teamwork would be cool

If you aren't prepared to download some content there isn't much you can do as you will be mostly using CS:S and HL2 props/materials/sounds. This severely limits what you can do in terms of canon, as custom objects would be difficult to create.
But to be fair there is a huge line between okay downloads and downloads that make people click cancel when joining.  Anything that takes over 120 seconds usually makes people quit.  Or anything over 100MB (Cause some people still got stoneage download speeds).

I really don't know any server that I have joined that takes less then 120 seconds to join (The first time). I would say a time within limit would be 5-7 minutes before I would consider to hit the cancel button.

Joining a New DarkDM/TTT/Whatever server usually takes me 2-3 minuets.  If it takes longer it's because they got too much junky stuff, a dumb car pack, player models (A huge pack), or a overall shitty Fast DL.

Consider it an official lore.  Typically, canon serves as a guideline for RPs and fan fictions.  To say that an RP or fan fiction rapes canon would be to say that there is nothing in the lore that supports what you say.

An example would be like saying you're a relative of Gordon Freeman when no mention of his family is made in any of the games.

Canon is also a brand of pretty decent printers.

Haven't bothered to read if its been mentioned yet, but I'd come back here if CG did a Metro 2033 RP server. I also know of a few others who would want to come back for that.

Metro2033 RP sounds great.  It wouldnt require a huge map but it would take someone to make us a map.  (I call dibs on D6)

Metro RP please. The one I used to play at with a few old CG fags (Jonco, Mooch, Slade, Airborne etc.) was amazing. The economy and tight knit feeling you get from the dwellers, rangers and stalkers just worked really well. One thing I would suggest 10 times over is to add hunger and thirst, because it was one of those rare occasions in which it actually helps.

Metro2033 RP would be the best.

There's already a huge map with different places for factions. It's called rp_stantsiya_v1c.  It takes place in the underground trainstations.

Factions would include: Dwellers (AKA Citizens), Redline, Stalkers, Fourth Reich and Rangers.
