The heck is an RP chat channel supposed to do? We RP in /say and /e. You've doomed us to griefing.

Holy shit an ETA from Carbine, and it's not that far away. Cougar for next CEO!!!!

Thanks for the quick response on that one pal, I know myself and others were a little in the dark there for a while! Perhaps move this into the main part of your stickied post for visibility?

Wow, I'm surprised you're expecting it this soon. When I first heard about this I was expecting something like very late this year/early next year, lol. It's certainly not a simple change to make and once you flip the switch there's no going back!

And they are wasting time and money, trolls on games that have a monthly cost make me smile.

We're not saying that what they're doing is awful and that it's not necessary. Most of the RP'ers who posted pretty much stated that this megaserver deal is a good thing for the other servers, but we do feel that the community that many worked very hard in building and protecting is going to vanish. That's all. I think we're entitled to give out our opinions. We pay for this game just like you do.

Let's not get melodramatic here. There's already been a dev posting that the math just isn't there to have a separate Rp megaserver. I don't like this decision either, but there's no need to turn them into black hearted fiends.

Except that as of now, we are now permanently locked to PvP/PvE, and had zero warning about the change.

Okay I misunderstood that part then. Thought you were talking about progression AND recruitment problems, not recruitment problems BECAUSE of progression. My bad. But wouldn't anyone who's that serious about progression do their research beforehand and roll on the server with the top guild(s) in the first place? I know I would if I was elite enough for Enigma tier playing. Genuinely wondering. :huh: Edit: Also what Abn said.

i feel like this could be a good way to go have your megaservers but have channels within the server; and maybe have 2 or 3 channels dedicated as "rp" channels. You don't have to have a bunch of servers, but at least give the RPs SOMETHING to call their own, other than a bodunk channel that nobody is going to use or get spammed with. (similar to maplestory, i suppose. in terms of channels.) i personally stick to house-plot rp and sometimes futz around in the open world (though, being honest here, the massive range on /s and /e makes me NOT want to rp in the open world, even on evindra) but i can understand how frustrating it can be to lose an rp tag on a server. i know rpers are not a huge part of the playerbase, but just having something more than a dinky rp-channel would be really nice. Just. you think of your PVE, and you think of your PVP, but please remember your RPers, who have moved here from other games after being disappointing, we don't have a whole lot left. though, this hasn't dropped yet and we don't exactly know how it's going to play out, and i really think rpers bailing and ragequitting before anything happens is kind of overdramatic and doesn't help anything in terms of trying to convince them to give us more than an rp channel

And when that reason is namecalling, you're still not adding anything to the discussion. When you have something to say, make sure it's substantive and doesn't violate the rules.

Oh the irony of the mmoRPG! Games originally created by RPers for RPers co-opted by players of RTS and FPS so long ago that roleplay has been assigned to a fringe activity for the abnormal. I get the megaserver solution--and I also get why Evindra is pissed.

Just give everybody 1 free character rename?
