This is precisely why I'm saying the staff is blind to certain things. Listen, I'm done being toxic. I mean no offense, but if you honestly believe that the implementation of stabilization kits in no way affect medrp, .... I'm not even going to say it.
^^, Oh, and don't take my word for it if you don't want. I've got over 10 players agreeing with me on this, many of whom's statements I'd be happy to quote for you-- anonymously if needed.
In and out of itself, stabiliz(s)ation rp is med rp. Making a one line 'plugs wound w quicklot' is just illegal as doing it in official medrp.(assuming we're going by the structure of serious rp). Stabilizing a wound requires extensive work, not just slap some quickclot on it and bandage it. If it were up to me, none of it would be optional, and it hsould be detailed, etc. Unfortunately it's not up to me, however, which is why I'm here making all these pushy suggestions. Sorry if my sass upsets you, but from what I garner, previous attempts at passive, civilized conversation with the hopes of fixing the problem have been fruitless.You're missing what I actually meant, I spelled it out in the response to oxy. I define a difference between 'StabilisationRP' and 'MedRP', meaning I'd be referring to 'MedRP' as the actual treatment of wounds in a medbay for example. StabilisationRP would be the act of ensuring someone survives long enough to be able to receive MedRP, meaning the act of removing someone's bleedout timer.
What I said was that 'StabilisationRP' (aka the 1 line '/me puts quickclot and bandage') became optional, while MedRP was still expansive and very much required for actual healing scripts, which is still being done and highly diverse, something that sadly wasn't happening with stabilisation as that was often done under fire where people did not risk putting a lot of effort in.
You have valid points, sure. But it also appears as if you did not entirely grasp how everything works, for example the stabilisation/medical stuff
Honestly, you don't have to keep up with this attitude, have I not been responding to criticism on here? You dont have to constantly emphasize the fact that we should listen to you. In reality, I could just as easily say 'fuck off', but here I am spending my personal time on writing this in the middle of the night. I honestly couldn't care less about how much of a following you have, I'd rather stick to the topic
ww3 rp is a bad server ownd
this is another reason why i have to criticize faction leadersthis is literally the only option left roosebud
roleplay is under attack

I think the easiest solution for the supposed problem right now is to switch the sever 's structure from serious rp to semi-serious rp
Thanks for the input. To be honest I haven't spent more than 10 hours on the server. I minged around, then got serious, got promoted, then went out with a bang because the server wasn't what it said it was. I did everything you said on that bullet list, but instead of being passive about it I was toxic and sassy about it. Dunno, guess subtle just ain't me. Not that the difference between subtle and agressive will change anything, from what I've seen. From what I gather, passive conversations asking for change have been fruitless, and I doubt this thread will make a change. It seems to me that yes the staff are willing to listen, but are they willing to take action? Well. Let's find out.I resigned/left WW3RP for multiple reasons, among which was the fact that the server was not taking the course I wish it was - the lore change didn't bring about the idealistic view I had for WW3RP and I was a fool to have it, since that's exactly what happened when WW3RP launched with nebulous, people expected a sudden mentality or view change to the gamemode, which simply doesn't happen overnight.
Now, I chose to leave because I wasn't having fun in the environment it was at anymore, but I was the minority in the server that wished it was different - which is why it appalls me that other people who have left need to have such a constant toxic demeanor to the server, to the point where they just want to annoy and piss off everyone - even when they have no interest in returning or actually getting a point across.
The worst part about this is the fact, as this thread as shown (as have many other threads, private and public conversations and so on) that @Roosebud is actually willing to listen and take criticism and change things if it warranted - so seeing people taking the piss all the time, when if they actually wanted thing to change, they would simply act like mature Humans instead of spoiled kids.
Of course you need to remember that his job as a Server Director is to make sure the server has a playerbase, and it has had its ups and downs, but it always comes around. If the majority of the playerbase (using a random number, lets say 80%) wants to have less NLR so they can s2k more, it seems obvious that you consider changing it, because the other portion that doesn't want a lower NLR is /not/ forced to go out and s2k (this is an example to illustrate a point).
If you actually want something to change, take advantage of the fact that you have a Server Director that takes his time to listen and read through all the spew (and the useful bits as well), and instead of simply throwing grenades and RDMing, do this.
- Point out the problem on the forums
- Perhaps gather evidence to showcase the point
- Let the players react to it, do they agree? Do they disagree?
- Start acting like it in-game - if you'd rather have more passive RP in the server then s2k (example) then spend more time doing passiveRP
If enough people do this and show that this is what will retain players, this is what will make most of you happy, I don't think that there would be an issue with trying to work on it - as long as it's not impossible or something completely radical to the server itself (if 75% of the players want flying cars in 1990, doesn't mean it will happen).
If you're an old player, that left, stop spamming every fucking thread with how much you think the server is shit - you just make a mockery out of yourself and make whoever is in-charge not want to listen to your constant stream of spew. Try being a reasonable person instead.
Thing is the change has to come from within the playerbase. In the 3 years the server has been up, the playerbase has steadily continued changing for the worst, up to now which is p much rock bottom in terms of rp and seriousness.Thanks for the input. To be honest I haven't spent more than 10 hours on the server. I minged around, then got serious, got promoted, then went out with a bang because the server wasn't what it said it was.

So, you didn't do what I said.I did everything you said on that bullet list, but instead of being passive about it I was toxic and sassy about it.
So, why did you think it would be appropriate to make a distinction between the two?Not that the difference between subtle and agressive will change anything
You said earlier you were aggressive and not passive, and that you played the server for 10 hours.From what I gather, passive conversations asking for change have been fruitless
Well, maybe it will, maybe it won't. Perhaps if you didn't act the way you did, it would have a better chance, but clearly you think that the difference between passive/aggressive is non existentand I doubt this thread will make a change.
You shouldn't expect a structural change to happen within 24 hours, especially when you already claimed a bunch of times that said change won't happen.It seems to me that yes the staff are willing to listen, but are they willing to take action?
Oh, the irony... The first genuinely passive reply I make gets a toxic reply from a hilariously confused ex-player who clearly has not read the entire conversation.Lets look into the cognitive dissonance you're exerting here
So, you didn't do what I said.
So, why did you think it would be appropriate to make a distinction between the two?
How do you know it won't make a difference if you haven't done both?
You said earlier you were aggressive and not passive, and that you played the server for 10 hours.
So you have no idea, this statement is just pure fabrication of your mind, or from what you gathered, which is nil.
Well, maybe it will, maybe it won't. Perhaps if you didn't act the way you did, it would have a better chance, but clearly you think that the difference between passive/aggressive is non existent

You contradicted yourself in the same sentence at times, that is really astonishing. Try, perhaps, a coherent reply without passive-aggressive and angst statements.
Save the smart-ass talk for a conversation where you're actually relevant, yeah?Lets look into the cognitive dissonance you're exerting here
Yes, I did. But the way I carried it out was different. Opposite.So, you didn't do what I said.

I don't expect a structural change in 24 hours. You literally just... Proved that sentiment. I don't even understand the point of this line. Call me dumb if you want, but to me it just seems like you stabbed yourself with a double-tipped spear.You shouldn't expect a structural change to happen within 24 hours, especially when you already claimed a bunch of times that said change won't happen.
Your entire reply was an angsty passive-agressive attempt to be the white knight that others have already tried to be, and frankly, you failed where others succeeded. The key difference between you and the others is that where you tried to seem like an over-qualified, smart-ass veteran, others actually clung to the relevant context of the thread and offered genuine counter-argument to the facts and evidence.You contradicted yourself in the same sentence at times, that is really astonishing. Try, perhaps, a coherent reply without passive-aggressive and angst statements.
oh okSave the smart-ass talk for a conversation where you're actually relevant, yeah?
Let's just say this thread made me quite a few friends. :pdamn even some new guy who doesnt know angel can roast him
I'm just going to keep coming on the server and roleplaying. Hopefully I end up influencing people. Anyone else want to do this?

Well, the staff saved you from my ire, but who cares. I've only been here a few hours and I can already tell everyone knows of your little charade. So what if they deleted my post, everyone knows about you.oh ok
ps - we weren't debating, I was just explaining why you're a big box
pps - I might not play anymore, but my opinion is infinitely more relevant then someone who is permabanned![]()
I think everyone knows I ERP and I don't try to hide it - as for the rest of your claims - just not true, sorry.Well, the staff saved you from my ire, but who cares. I've only been here a few hours and I can already tell everyone knows of your little charade. So what if they deleted my post, everyone knows about you.
I don't think I need to go back in on this, I'll let you hang on to that little ounce of respect that people still have for you, considering you were the faction leader. Peace. Don't ever test me again. Have a good one.~
yeahI think everyone knows I ERP and I don't try to hide it
I think we're going a bit off-topic here, but if your implication is that ERPing = being Dr. Pepper then about 33% of the active playerbase in this community is Pepper.yeah
so does pepper
