Well, some of you at least. You know who I’m talking about.
You guys are taking what is supposed to be a role play and somehow are twisting it as if the person behind it is attacking an actual empire with actual people. Stop taking yourself so seriously and loosen up. I had several cool arcs I wanted to display (admittedly some of which required a bit of god modding to achieve), but now I’m not so sure any of you actually WANT to have any fun with role playing.
Honestly it’s incredibly boring if you simply assume nobody can challenge you simply because of technological advancements or numbers. Before you accuse me of doing the exact same thing let me say that my character [i]was designed to lose[/i] in the end. But you never let me get to that part without harassing me OOC about it. And that’s the biggest problem with this rp community. People are afraid to lose so they create such powerful inter-dimensional armies and tech that nobody can possibly hope to beat them. That’s annoying and it’s a cheap counter to powerful villains. If you’re going to go into an rp with a “literal who”, and by that I mean you acknowledge them in the realm of the Offtopic RP lore, you shouldn’t pretend like you have a vastly superior force. I don’t even know how that could be fun unless you a DM (which is what I was attempting to be). If that wasn’t clear I’m sorry. But it still doesn’t excuse the fact that people were god modding from the start and then accusing ME for god modding back.
In short: Congratulations, your hostility and lack of creativity ruined what could have been a great Offtopic RP arc. Bravo.

My rp almost always involves peeing for dominance, T posing, and screaming. I'd say I'm quite chill lol.

3 RepliesYou're right about a few people taking things too far and ruining the mood for everyone. But it's hard to take you seriously with your existing anime characters and lack of knowledge of what's going on around you. It kinda comes off as mockery.

[quote]Honestly it’s incredibly boring if you simply assume nobody can challenge you simply because of technological advancements or numbers. Before you accuse me of doing the exact same thing let me say that my character [i]was designed to lose[/i] in the end.[/quote] Now, I don’t pay attention to much of the Offtopic RP stuff, but I want to point something out here. Intending to lose in the end does not circumvent the fact that this is true. Nobody knows what you’re planning to do, so god modding in the present, with the intention of losing in the future is just as incredibly boring as god modding in the present with the intention of always being unbeatable. At the time of, it looks the same no matter what you have planned, and isn’t fun for anyone but the god-modder.

Perhaps a lead up, villains don’t need to be gods to be a threat, a well calculated event that goes with the flow can be just as good... [spoiler]Sips Tea[/spoiler]

1 ReplyLike Silencer said, I’m completely fine with it, he just should’ve spent some time here before launching a full-scale war on us. I told him as much but he was clearly not seeing the difference between in-character rp and regular discussion.

9 RepliesI’m fine with him doing this, I’m just saying that he should get a bit of a reputation before doing this.

1 ReplyWe just want fair rp, we would be fine if you did it, just have some lead up. Have at least a few posts warning of something like, " a storm is brewing... " if you would do that people will be more ready to do a fair rp with you

Perhaps I got too hostile, and when I did I apologize. The issue (at least in regards to the RP we were doing) is that everything we have was moderated beforehand. The entire thing we were going for was Star Wars (with some exceptions), so shits gonna be OP compared to some mechs. The issue I have is when people determine the outcomes of someone else’s move(s). I did that when I started off and saw why people got pissed about it, the person determine the action has all the power.

8 RepliesSee, I agree with you that people can be way too Overpowered, which is why I mainly use a sword and shield and no powers or spaceships, because I find god modding boring. But I think the main reason people got mad at you is because you came in and just said you took over, with no explanation as to how, or no negotiation. I’m just mad because now that the whole thing is ruined I don’t get to test my sword, shield, and head butting skills against mechs that are actually reasonable in power level.

4 Replies... Can you guys just make an RP tag with a very obvious RP title, the RP is just f[i]u[/i]cking annoying... [spoiler]not included in the DLC[/spoiler]

28 RepliesGood. You took god modding with something no one cared about to tried to take over Offtopic and got everyone, mainly me pissed about it. You also tried to make a fun RP arc but then you say you can just walk up to somewhere and blow it apart. Not what we do here. You just can’t take it and make something happen. So I took your god modding which was supposedly a little bit and fought it with god modding right back. So you ruined it yourself. You set no rules for your army in the first place. Take Virus for a example. In his most recent post he said that his throne is covered by a impenetrable shield. That’s good DM’ing. Not too over the top. But you saying that you can just get onto my ship when I have defenses in place that prevents that easily isn’t allowed and shouldn’t be allowed by anyone. In short [b][i][u]YOU![/u][/i][/b] took it and made it bad. Also like Colonel Raptor said maybe if you would have made some lead up posts it would have gotten seriously much better. And seriously cut down on the God Modding. No one likes you when you do that. And you can’t just pull 100,000 mechs out of nowhere. I have been guilty myself of that many times except it’s with capital ships. I am pretty sure I still have to learn it. But besides that you broke basically every single rule there was. And it’s your own fault.
