An Update On 2.5.2

[lemontide331 1615]

I forgot when Rp'ers became only SpamShok. If you're able to tell me, please do because I sure don't know.

 

 

I could say the same, and say the server doesn't revolve around you either.  You want a PVP zone in the middle, I don't. Does it make you selfish because you want it along with other people, does it make me selfish because I don't want it along with other people as well? I don't think so.

... There's still place to RP on, even if this badlands idea is used in 2.5.2, so I don't see how I'm the one thinking this server revolves around me. :L Also, you're most known for hating PvP but I'd just appreciate it if you'd give it ago before straight up hating it.

why not do it? I mean we make videos about wars, that are supposed to promote us, that are all PVP...

I don't hate it. 

 

I sometimes play on MC PVP, MineZ, Hunger Games and generally enjoy some PVP. I don't like it on LoTC however.

 

Also, saying the server revolves around you was an example, to show you that your argument was usable the other way around, not an insult or something I specifically believe is true.

 I rather have Auslon up until 3.0

Asulon was deleted when the servers were hacked.

Good thing the server doesn't revolve around you. Let other people have their fun for christ sakes, whether it's PvP or not. This is /just/ a temp a map. Honestly, I would of loved for this idea to have gone through yet people seem to think everything revolved around them. "oh /I/ don't like PvP get rid of this! Why should /I/ have to avoid a certain area."

 

This server is a ROLEPLAY server not a PvP anarchy of who is the best PvPer. If the area is made into a PvP zone then that place will become an anarchy for the best PvPer. What if someone is holding a meeting in the badlands so no one will know of the meeting? Do you think it would be alright if someone burst in covered in diamond armor diamond sword in hand and annihilated them? The badlands should not be a PvP area. Once more I will say this, This server is a ROLEPLAY server NOT a PvP server.

The people opposed to PVP still will not answer why they can not just do what they want in the 4 other spots! You guys just keep going on on how you (SPAMSHOK AND RELGARD) need control of that one fifth of the map. Maybe it not being how you want it will cause you fear and cause you to actually do something.It is obviously causing fear in you ooc'ly. Once you ahve put you opinions there is no point arguing for 10 pages over the same little points.

Once again if you don't want to PvP don't go to there, have the meeting some where else. If you don't want to take the chance of dying during your meeting don't go there simple solution.

Guys, before everyone gets fully into this -Not revolving around you- aspect of "Discussing", might I say that the badlands won't even be 1/5th of the map. Also, RP won't COMPLETELY be abandoned in the badlands. It just means that bandits or villains can ambush you while you travel without RPIng it. So, I would think that currently it would be a solution however people shouldn't just pick 100% Rp or 100% pvp. This is EXACTLY what the GMs have been trying to balance. Pvp and RP. This would very easy do it unless you want to draw it out with more flame wars.

 

Keep in mind too that this is a temp map, the main map won't be like that. This is just to add an extremely dangerous part to the new map instead of mobs constantly interrupting your RP with another player. So thus, I agree that the center badlands should be PvP free since RP is not being completely abandoned. On TOP of that, all of the race islands WILL NOT HAVE PVP ON FREELY LIKE THE CENTER MAP! This means, you can still RP hard-core! The badlands are basically the extremely dangerous lands in which traveling you must have escorts. I don't think people in medieval times who are rich travel through dangerous areas without guards do they? This will start using that realistic aspect...

Because it could be used for something so much better. I'd rather that fifth of the map be something unique rather than a PvP server with accents.

 

As I said with the VA-Free zone thing - It could be used to test out villain concepts or make a "What if" for your character. It would sitll have the hostility as well, as the majority there would be to kill.

I remember how PvP-bashers would scoff at the notion that they are a vocal minority.

 

Just look at the poll and thread; you guys who abhor PvP take up a smaller percentage of the server then you think.

 

This server was built on the notion of abrupt spontaneous conflicts of epic, plugin-based PvP, and engaging storylines. I hope we come forward to embrace that with ideas and experiments like these instead of shunning it away and making ourselves more like the atypical run-of-the-mill RP server you can find on minecraftforums which is just a vanilla server with no plugins, pvp-off (to encourage RP fighting) and no real conflict.

 

I applaud the experimentation of this idea and hope we can try other PvP based ideas out, even if we have a strong vocal minority which thinks otherwise.

 

Also, I don't think the 1 staff member who is designing the badlands has the time to turn it into a spooky forest/dungeon. Furthermore, I think that'd only appeal to a small group of people as once you clear this forest/dungeon, you can't really revisit it (and even if its a dynamic dungeon, we have to get a host of GMs to make the experience different every time)

Then why did you make that post if you want the arguing to stop? Seems kinda hypocritical.

Why would anyone have a meeting in a location that IC is meant to be the "Badlands"? You're right, this is an RP server, so RP somewhere that would make sense for your character, not in a place designed to be dangerous for all who enter.

Once more must I say it many more times. This server is a ROLEPLAY server NOT a PvP server. The server is for Roleplaying not PvP practice. If you people want to PvP, go to a different server and leave the Roleplayers alone. You signed up to this server to Roleplay not to PvP. You got what you wanted when you signed up and now you demand more. You demand to change the server itself in a way. You want to take the roleplay out and put PvP in its place. Once more, this is a roleplay server NOT a PvP server.
