Rule Proposal

[shortchangehero 4217]

Just an idea I had but;

 

what if people were denied the ability to join combat role-play scenarios after a certain amount of time had passed from when they first started. An example of this being two opposing soldiers getting in a role-play fight and after 10 IRL minutes pass from when they first emoted, no one who shows up after being allowed to join the combat. I think this would be a good way of stopping meta-rallying (When people meta-game OOCly to get more people to show up to an IC fight). If anyone wants to, I’d like to see what they think of this idea with a response below.

 

Otherwise thanks for reading. Listen to this fire ??

Ioannis – Make it so in settlements this rule doesn’t apply for the guards/citizens.

 

Temp – Make it emote based instead of time based.

I’d adjust it for a set number of emotes instead of a time limit. If the person on the receiving end of a meta rally just emotes *dodges or some variant, the attacker can just bail on the fight to save themself.

That’s a good idea, I agree.

+1 maybe more time/emotes required before nobody else can join though

Idk about the specific details like time/emotes or the quantity of them, but the general idea is pretty guuuud!

I personally have no qualms with the idea, but I know that a lot of people don’t like it

Issue is, what’s the RP reason for people not helping? They’ll show up, but can’t do anything RPly because of skygod rules, then they get RP backlash for not helping. How would this be dealt with?

Rp reason would be that a fight only lasts like a minute irp, its just the emotes that take hella long.

 

I had a fight so long that many people just started showing up out of the blue, all on their own. We didnt want a dogpile so all of us in the fight quickly agreed to kick out anyone that wasnt there for the beginning of the fight. It was more fun that way, for that rp anyways. There was no rp backlash.
