Zombies in the Bluzone** [[CLOSING]]

[Captn]

I didn't read most of that, but what I did read.

Marley killing Aaron was more of a joke. While it would add if I did kill him, it didn't do it then, trust me if I had I would have RPed it WAAAY more.

Now back to reading


Ike had to leave, opening server ASAP
Watch for it guys

All right then, that particular point is invalid, but there's still others. A man used to acting first and never letting someone get away with what Abram was doing would have shot Abram in the face (as I attempted to do as he was shanking Roxxi, but I kind of power-rped it by actually firing the ingame weapon), but no, he still has too many plans and won't lie down in his grave where he should have wound up long ago for someone who acts like he does.

No offense, Audax, but most of the stories sure seem to revolve around a couple of people. I tried to recruit the help of others in getting materials for the repair of the generators to restore power to Gammaton, but all I got, despite the server's good roleplayers, was one half-hearted trigger-happy looney (he tried to "fix" the generators by stabbing them with a metal knife) and a bullet in the shoulder courtesy of Ike (which I kinda deserved). I even blew out a roof with an RPG scavenging for parts, but the admins never responded to my questions as to how to go about it or if they should change the roof at all afterward. It was a dismal failure. The fact that almost all the other survivors are A. new to the Bluzone and it's method of RP, B. already part of a group, or C. Too cool for groups (i.e. Roxxi) seriously limits my options, as does the fact that I don't have existing friends on the server (with the rare exception of Joltarn, who was an SA on Cysero's where I hung out before the insanely high facecount started crashing me upon spawning there). I tried to make events and roleplay invitations but I was mostly met with indifference. A month ago my Wilder character helped a mutalid recover from an explosion and wandered with her for a little bit but after that nothing really became of it.

Have you seen how when Abram attacks Roxxi, five to seven people run to her defense, while when thugs beat me up, everyone just walks by? When mhlocka's character was knifed and Ring's character was injured by shrapnel at the same time, everyone paid so much attention to Rings and mostly ignored mhlocka. I was the only one who even noticed. mhlocka later got perma'd, and I think it was because of how he kept going on about the way Vengeance surrounded him when he only broken a window but I don't remember the exact reason.

I feel like my character is left out because since my return from a 3-week absence, I have been unable to wedge myself into anything that anyone else is doing OR get anyone else to join in what I am doing. They all just tell me in OOC to leave, their story is already planned out, and there's not enough good RPers left for me to create anything of any significance. Roger Mortis was an example of what happens when one player tries to instigate RPs without other players to back him up. Everyone just ignores him, or walks away, or what-have-you, anything but joining in.

Any thoughts on that, Audax?

I'm going to try to not go into depth too much, but your character is socially inept and there is no reason other characters should just randomly trust you and role-play adventures and stuff with you.

The reason other characters are treated much differently is because they are well known and trusted. The reason those other characters appear in events is because that player controlling the character knows how to role-play, and are able to come up with a good story to role-play. I already explained that part.

I was told I was good at RP-ing. :/
"Well that's just great. I cannot tell day from night, black from white, wrong from right. I don't know what's real anymore and what's not." -some tv show

The thing is, a character cannot really BECOME well-known and trusted without participating in events and such except near the beginning of the server's lifetime. Although many such characters are now dead, the players controlling them are still friendly with each other and they carry that trust over in the way of "helping the new guy". It's a cycle that perpetuates itself, unfortunately, because nobody will know of or trust my character until I can pull something off, and I cannot pull something off until someone knows of or trusts my character. Sure, I could stall for a few months IRL, but school starts tomorrow and I will be on a lot less. Even when I am on, I'd basically just be lingering around, not doing much, unable to gather any support or wedge myself into anything important unless one of the more well-known characters took pity on me, and I think we all know that's probably not gonna happen.

You're trying too hard. I bet to the people you constantly try to wedge yourself into, your character comes off as some crazy survivor that shouldn't be trusted - and mostly likely wants to kill them.

You don't need to be in events or anything or constantly drive attention towards yourself. You just need to casually role-play and talk to people when they want to talk to someone. Just do what you would do in an actual situation like this. You seem to want to be part of something big and be noticeable, than just role-play like everyone else.

If this doesn't work, I don't know what else to say.

All right, I'll see what I can do.

Also alot of fights, Crow nearly died, Marley nearly died, Mary was about to nearly die. Was fun.

[Kiro]

Dude Kqgqn you should get Vengeance together to try to kill Marley but he escapes and hides and you capture Mary and make her tell you where Marley is so you can kill him and take her with you when you go to assassinate him and come across us all and he flips out at her thinking she lead them to him cuz he attacked her before and he attacks her again and him and I fight and someone kills Marley and mega sad music is playing the whole time and then me and my group fight Vengeance and then the military comes and we have to join together to live omg that would be so crazaaaayyyyy!!!!!!!!!!1

That was one sentence.

And it would never work because it's way too structured… But you have to admit, that would be the most badass event in Bluzone history.

But we wouldn't do that to Mary, she's part of Vengeance. Everyone needs to get that right.
