Does COP even RP? from what i've seen you guys are basically PK's that make clever forum posts. I've only seen COP members IG fighting alongside "leet dewds" and talking shit. I dont meen to say that you have never Role played Im just asking because I've never seen it. Just curious.
LOL exactly what I was thinking.
I've actually done this multiple times. Once in trinsic an once in nujelm. Honestly both kind of fizzled because, like you said, who wants to play a peasant. However, having said that, I think there us a place for it. As long as you don't expect everyone to play their peasant as their main it can serve a purpose.
Get crafters and workman types in a guild gathered in a city. Then when people are playing their alts they can still rp if the situation presents itself. I would recommend using a city that is already established as an rp center, has all the options the citizens would need and few non rpers that would make our lives miserable.
On siege there was a player established town called Haven. they had rules, guards, even a voted in mayor. it was tons of fun and all the rp guilds respected the rules and such. as far as players go why not do the same thing as the "new guild" meaning offer new players a spot to train and play and meet new people. you could call the guild Towns Folk (Twn) or whatever. its just too good of an idea to not have here heh.
About the only griefers I ever remember causing trouble there were Yoda and his son.
Well that's a blast from the past.
Why does housing really matter? RP island is a place of meeting and such. Just meet up there and be around the entrances to the rp island. I really want everyone to be closer and not separated it. Tenebre and Imbus felt like everyone was so far apart.I dont think the rp islands exist any more. to my knowledge the rp islands are one island with no gards and a red bank. it has tiny dungeon paths to several rp guilds (Yew,TcD, Und, Orc, VsC). I think only Orc, Und, and VcS are current. it dosnt look like there is room for any sort of housing.
