Roleplaying Thread

[MC43]

People. I'm not trying to shoot anyone down, but you guys are missing the point to this thread. This thread is for roleplaying, and roleplaying only. All other topics should be brought up in the General forum. Is anyone else has any questions, I'll try and help out as much as I can, but please, please, leave this thread for roleplaying only.

[Neverwhere]

umm.. no. This thread says 'Roleplaying'. Nowhere do I see it say 'Use this to DO online roleplaying ONLY'. Sorry, Im going to continue to talk about ROLEPLAYING games on here. Thanks.

[Andy]

i <3 ranting

what right have you to question the oldskoolers? i didnt see you on the old RP forums, which were designed for online roleplaying only. This is the same thing, only located somewhere else. in other words, what you're talking about are GAMES. hence, take it to the games section maybe?

[Metacide]

roleplaying is roleplaying regardless what form it comes in

[Andy]

the roleplaying forum is a place to roleplay. i think all the other mumbojumbo is just needless spam that could be in the games thread rather than here, clogging it up.

is that ok, god?

[Tor]

Could we just say that we are allowed to both roleplay here AND rant along about silly roleplaying things?

[Neverwhere]

make a roleplaying sub-thread if you want to role play. I dont give a crap wtf you want to do with what you think should be going on here. I dont, so I wont.

[Metacide]

i think Neverwhere speaks for everyone

[Tommathy]

Now kids, play nice.

And also, this particular forum's original purpose was, in fact, to roleplay, and not discuss rpgs in general.

Of course, I'm sure this'll all become moot as soon as the rush of members ebbs and things settle down a bit...

Roleplaying (5 Viewing)
God-mode set to ON Wow, yet again I still state the fact that:

a. No where does any mod posting specify that this thread is for pure roleplaying.

b. the title of this thread off the main site does not say "For role playing only"

c. If you want to roleplay, create your own thread. I respect your want for roleplay (and will probably engage in it), but dont bitch when we want to talk about RPG's as they are also roleplaying.

[MC43]

Yes... but you guys talk about RPG's. Not engage in them. If you are DISUCSSING RPG's they should be in the DICCUSION thread. We're not complaining, it's just that was what this thread was made for.

[Neverwhere]

Too serious for the random forum? Talk about it here!Well, for me RPG's are, in their very nature, Role-Playing Games. You are stating what you believe this thread was made for. Did you make it? Did you design it? Is this your place to be telling me (or anyone else) what I can/cant post, where I can/cant, or how I am supposed/not supposed to post it? NO. Get off our backs.

[MC43]

You're right Never... I didn't make this thread, but the people who did made it to be a roleplay thread. Just a ROLEPLAY thread, not a ROLEPLAYING GAME thread. Huge difference...

[Neverwhere]

As I dont see them complaining about it, I think that we are currently going down a path that is fine with them. As long as this remains about roleplaying, it belongs under the roleplaying thread. In fact, if Im not mistaken, we have already had something from the discussion thread moved here because it was roleplay based, not including roleplaying from the people of the forum. Ah yes, here it is (http://forum.nuklearpower.com/showthread.php?t=195) Seems to me the mods think this thread is about roleplaying, not soley for roleplay only.

[MC43]

...? I'm confused. I know I haven't been here long, but not once did I see a thread like that in the Roleplaying thread in the old site. Not to mention, I just read we have new mods here at this site.

[Neverwhere]

Well, I wasnt on the other site, so I have no comment about that. All Im saying is this thread isnt soley based upon roleplay, but roleplaying in general. If its otherwise, maybe the mods should change the desc of it and/or the title of it in some way. Or they could post a sticky about the "rules" so it would clear up this little disagreement we have been having.

[MC43]

I guess I shouldn't really be making this such a big deal about this, but this was how I was "Brought up" so to speak. We should get a Mods opnion on this.

Now if we only knew who the mods were...

Well, isn't that special? Maybe if you took some time to think, You'd realize you've been trying to repair your own mistakes! If I may point out...

So...where does it say that you can talk about RPGs and not Roleplay in here?

make a roleplaying sub-thread if you want to role play. I dont give a crap wtf you want to do with what you think should be going on here. I dont, so I wont.

Well, I don't exactly care what you think should be going on in here either. Furthermore, your English is nonsensical and questionable (specifically, that last sentence made no sense).

Geez, couldn't just back down. Although I have the strong feeling neither side will be willing to back down in this...the Battle of the Bandwidth.

[Metacide]

this thread has become a "moo point," much like a cow's opinion, it doesn't matter. If you desire to role play simply create a thred to roleplay in. Leave the rest of us alone, we're doin just fine without you and your complaining. If you want you can also start a thread about whining.

[MC43]

No... No no no. You don't seem to grasp this concept. This thread was orginially made for Roleplaying. Diccusions should be held in other forums. If anything, you guys should make a new thread for discussion.

[Neverwhere]

I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

[Neverwhere]

No... No no no. You don't seem to grasp this concept. This thread was orginially made for Roleplaying. Diccusions should be held in other forums. If anything, you guys should make a new thread for discussion.
Hey, im all for that.

[Devil Wet His Pants]

I'd just like to point out that the only reason most of the non-roleplayers, myself included, are here is because our threads got moved here. So, you should probably ask the mods why they made the decision to move us here instead of fighting with us.

Oh and Neverwhere stop fighting with them. I'm sure this problem will be resolved soon.

[Neverwhere]

sniff, me and mc43 are cool :D just ask him!

[MC43]

Yeah... me and him are just fine. Don't cut in on our fun!

[Wolf99x]

I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

Maybe you should stop looking in the mirror when you post.

[Neverwhere]

See, me and him are fine. Its just the rest of you I hate! :D http://www.fancysplace.com/smileys/boom.gif

[MC43]

Now... back to the conversation on hand...

I think we should contact a Mod to help us out with this decision. Seeing on how we can't seem to resolve this ourselves...

[Wolf99x]

FYI Metacide, nice to know you know when to back out of a fight before you get burned.

[Neverwhere]

Well, Im done beating this dead horse. If the rest of you wish to continue, it shall be without me. Ta-ta http://www.fancysplace.com/smileys/tsys.gif

[Neverwhere]

Might I suggest you take a look at the forum rules and then review your previous two posts? I believe this is what i am talking about - If it is a flame of any kind it is spam

[MC43]

No no no... I'm not letting you leave that easily! You see, I'll...

Uh... I have no idea how I'm going to make you stay... Damn it.

[Neverwhere]

You will never get me back here! http://www.fancysplace.com/smileys/smiley_outtahere.gif shid, im back...

Viper Daimao said on the rules thread

The Double-Posting Thing: we don't like double-posting because it's kinda spammy and pointlessly takes up space. Double-posting looks kind of like this:

SomeUser: blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
(posted at 5:15:05 PM)
SomeUser: oh, and blahblahblahblahblahblah too
(posted at 5:15:07 PM)

Now who's spamming?! Don't quote rules if you can't follow them. Just accept defeat and go elsewheres. Also, what do you call the "unarmed man" jab?! Eh? FLAME!! FLAME FLAME FLAME!!! Fallen on your own sword, eh Neverwhere?

[Metacide]

alright this really has become a dead horse, seein as how this has nothing to do with role playing or role playing games, but is simply discussing where threads should be and what you should do in specific threads.
Guess i don't know when to quit before i get burned :)

[Neverwhere]

? I respond to one while I type, then, after submitting my quick reply I notice that there was a new post while I was typing. I dont see how that is spamming at all. Im replying to each reply as I see them. If there are more than one that come in while i was typing the previous one, ill respond to both in that singular reply.

[Wolf99x]

Yeah, well I see what I see and call what I see. And I see a breach of a minor rule.

[MC43]

Actually Neverwhere... there's an edit button on your post so you can edit the post you just made.

Just a friendly reminder from your rival. Oh... and HA! I got you back!

[Neverwhere]

http://www.fancysplace.com/smileys/smiley_cry.gif And editing takes more time/effort than just using this nifty quick reply option!

[MC43]

Ooo... Have we found something else to argue about!?

No... I'm just kidding... I say we put this behind us... and prey that a Mod solves this dispute.

[Neverwhere]

I already have... Its just that Wolf continues to hound me! (hehe, hound me.. get it? he's a wolf? heh...)

[MC43]

Naw... He's not going to borrow you anymore... he's gonna be off for a while.

[Wolf99x]

I am now all for the peaceful solution. Let the mods step in like the UN Peacekeeping force they are and resolve this incident without any more flaming garbage tossing (although that sure is fun).

[Squishy Cheeks]

I told you we should just move our stuff to the general discussion RP. BUT NO!!! Now we got to deal with all the whining that comes with newbs.

[Andy]

i think, maybe im the oldest member here. correct me if im wrong. I started on the old boards just when they changed from the older ones. Since then all i saw in the RP thread was the Online Roleplays. All other threads like whats here were moved to either discussion or games. Why dont you just move your discussion elsewhere to please those of us who are used to the Ol'Skool?

Also, i'd like to know. Neverwhere, how old are you?

[Neverwhere]

19 (or will be on the 25th). Why?

And I say out with the old, and in with the new. I dont care either way. I just dont understand why this is such a big fuckin deal :(

[MC43]

I'm out... I made my case... I'm leaving it to the higher-ups.

[Andy]

i just reckon the old ways are the best, man. im just clinging onto my oldskoolness as a bit of an exscuse. like, as in, ive got more experience and stuff. so nyah :)

hehe. You dunna know me, so i'll introduce myself. Im Andy, im 14. yes, 14. i skate with the enemy street team in Sydney, and sometimes i'll go on tour and not post for a couple weeks. ive been visiting the rp forums for nigh on 2 years now, etc.

your turn!

[Neverwhere]

Sweet man! Im 19 (almost) and I blade. Yeah, I blade (fruitboot :P) but I like it. I havent done it for nearly 6 months as Ive been busy as hell workin for college (which has since started). Basically now im stuck here playin CS and readin my web-comics during work (yeah, I get to play GAMES at work :D). Still though, Sydney? Fugging cool!

[LilWhiteMage]

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe a couple of the mods moved some of the RPG talking related threads to this area. My opinion: Bring up this 'disagreement' with the mods and see if this is to be just 'pure' RP or RP and RPG discussion.

[Tenjin Matsukaru]

wow despite the fact that you are trying to keep this a RPing thread, you have consumed about a page and a half by bickering. Forgive my interruption but thats an irony if ever I saw one

been there, decided that :D

[Tenjin Matsukaru]

by the way I had no intention of being rude lets just get on with the RP

[Andy]

yeah man. its out of our hands. Besides, who doesnt really love a good argument anyway?

See? So what you do, if you have something to say right after your first post, is you go back and edit it into the first post using the "edit" button to the bottom right of your message.

If you accidentally double-post something (not likely to happen with this type of messageboard, but you never know), don't worry, we understand that stuff acts funny sometimes. Just go back and delete the extra post, which you can also do by clicking the "edit" button.

so you will have to expend the extra energy to go and hit that edit button if you miss someone's post.

and about this forum, it is for roleplaying.
like - *viper sneaks up behind you and stabs you*
stuff like that. however, untill we change the forum names around a little, you can put dnd and other roleplaying stuff in here too.

[MC43]

Oh... since we are in the introdution stage... I'm 16 and uh... I sit on my fat ass and do nothinhg. I'm not an outdoorsy-kinda guy. Yeah...

Anyway, We should just drop this stupid thing. Forget I said anything... I'm sorry.

[LilWhiteMage]

..... Okay, since I'm assuming that's all settled and suchness.... ~introduces self as well~ Twenty years old, fixing to be going back to college... again.... and love to waste my 'precious' time by rping. Heheh.

[Metacide]

well it was kinda fun while it lasted. as for me I'm 20 in Washington. yay rain!

[cruelty13]

Neverwhere, you truly have out done with your self. You said "Out with the old and in with the new". I don't approve of it. I say: "In with the good old Rp's and out with the chatter about silly RPG's like Final Fantasy XI or X". By the way I am 13 years old and live in a small country next to Russia. Not Finland.

[Wolf99x]

Yo. I'm 17, from the Northeast United States and a major video gamer. I try to make computer games in my spare time.

And I agree that chatting about some "silly" RPGs (FFVIII and FFIX) is atrocious , but maybe a compromise can be worked out, so that everyone can be at peace. (Hopefully the compromise isn't Russian Roulette with a Trojan Horse virus.)

[Hamelin]

I think this thread on Roleplaying has gotten slightly off topic... It's past 60 posts anyway, it needs to be closed.

[Wolf99x]

Fine. Shut us down. But we will move on to another thread, and continue our peaceful negotiations. You cannot stop the peace talks/ peace debates! We will not be hampered by troublemaking agressors!

Especially those who share their name with a fictional town that had a rat problem worse than New York City.

With all respect, Hamelin, we know that shutting down a thread is done to preserve site bandwidth, but don't tell the moderators how to do their jobs that's...not cool.

Paid for by the Wolf99x Campaign for a better united forum user base on Nuklear Power Forums

[Neverwhere]

I agree with the whole 'silly rpg talk' stuff, but I dont think that you can stop us from talking about rpg's in the rp section. If you want to rp (as ive said time and time before) make a thread. Stop bitching about me.

[Wolf99x]

Freakin' Self-Centered N00B! This ain't about you. This is a matter of principle. Roleplaying does not mean...

(SNAP TO UNREALITY)

Announcer: The Sepiroth Group: An in depth look at numerous Video Game RPGs. Sitting as the moderator as always is Sephiroth from FFVII, a disturbed man with a sword. To his left is Fighter of FF1 fame, to his left is Black Mage of FF1 fame. To his left is Vincent Valentine from FFVII. To his left is Kain from FFVI. To his left is Terra from FFVI. To the right of Sephiroth, is Citan from Xenogears, to his right is KOS-MOS and chaos from Xenosaga Episodes 1 and 2. To their right are Squaresoft's Angels, Yuna, Rikku, and Paine, from FFX-2

Black Mage: Freakin' Lame game if you ask me!

Yuna: Shut up, you 8-bit pervert!

Black Mage: THAT'S IT!!! HADOKEN!!!

(Stage is turned into a 5 mile wide crater)

Network Exec: Okay...well that isn't the best idea...what about this?

Cid Highwind: Welcome to the Cid Highwind radio show! Today we're gonna have some mad bitches on here! First up, Squaresoft's Angels...

Yuna: QUIT CALLING US THAT!!! (starts shooting up the station, albiet very inaccurately.)

Network Exec: NEVER MIND!! Okay, new idea!

Announcer: Clerks, the RPG version. Just because they sell you weapons and restore your HP, doesn't mean they like you. Starring Barret Wallace as Dante.

Rico (Xenogears): Your prices suck, as do your weapons!! And where's that guy from the inn! He shoulda been here three hours ago!

Barret: SHUT IT!! I'M NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TODAY!

(shoots Rico with Ungarmax)

Exec: Damn it all, I quit! You're on your own Neverwhere!

(SNAP BACK TO REALITY)

Wolf99x: The point I'm trying to make here is that I was ready to let a peaceful solution present itself, but unfortuantely, Mr. Neverwhere had to be conceited. This is message to Mr. Neverwhere: You disappoint me. FIGHT'S ON!!!

Paid for by the Wolf99x Campaign to Unite the Forum users by any and all means necessary.

The Campaign wishes to apologize to Yuna, Rikku, and Paine. We know it isn't really your fault you got put in a game with many lesbian, Spice Girls, Charlie's Angels, and Brittney Spears undertones...wait...yes it is! GET A LAWYER!!! OR JOIN A UNION!!! GOD I COULD CRAP A BETTER GAME!!! FFVII ADVENT CHILDREN HAD BETTER BE GOOD...OR ELSE... (Campaign Speaker 1 is tranqed and dragged offstage)

Campaign Speaker 2: The Campaign cautiously retracts that apology. It is obvious the previous speaker was highly disturbed (FFX-2 still sucks, though) However, we do wish to apologize to anyone offended by our comments and sketch comedy. However, we also wish to say say, lighten up, they're just words.

[shiney]

Wolf.

Official warning.

Shut the fuck up. Now. You just proved how much of a retard you are capable of being by regarding Neverwhere in that fashion, and by mocking Hamelin.

For your information, what Hamelin wants done, gets done. If you disrespect him or the other members of this forum EVER again, you won't be participating any longer.

Do I make myself clear?

-- Neverwhere on a different note, you spam too much. There is no absolute in roleplay. Frankly it's based on preference...some people prefer good rp's with a basis in story and plot, some people liek to waste time on whatever comes to mind.

Anyways. I don't EVER want to see bullshit like this again. Ever.
