I am currently looking at the last few pages.
What the hell did I miss?
Though I agree this RP needs to emphasize more "Zombies" instead of Military and Mutalids.
We can also make it so RPers must be afraid of the Zombies, because most people just hit them with a crowbar fearlessly.
Just to say, I never, ever seen in my Bluzone RPing time a massive Zombie Event.
Blame the players. Back in the first Bluzone (Yup, here I go again. Another somewhat-nostalgia rant, you can skip over this post if you want, friend.) there were no big events or anything. There were no popular survivors or anything that were noticed more than others. It was just a simple role-play where the setting was a city struck by the zombie apocalypse.
People would make up their character, go on the server with their friends - or even make some new ones. Then they would just role-play in a normal believable fashion. Nothing too ridiculous or anything. It's exactly what it was. A role-play in a zombie apocalypse. Nobody complicated anything, the only trouble there ever was, was the occasional person who would break the rules.
There was barely any story - apart from the small mini-story that was scattered around the map. But other than that, no story. People would just have some good 'ol fashioned fun, role-playing with each other. I can't describe it that well, maybe someone else or Knaz can - but basically it was just a simple role-play.
The military was only a sort of "punishment" to survivors when they drew too much attention to themselves. They weren't a big part as a lot of you make them out to be now.
Anyways, my point is it's the players that are the problem.
You guys complicate things.
You are the ones who attempt to fabricate some dramatic story for your characters and the ones surrounding him/her.
You are the ones who throw together and form some soap opera situation.
You, are the ones who don't focus on the zombies - and instead, shrug them off as a threat because apparently everyone in the Bluzone is the god damned Terminator with 100% accuracy.
I'm not going to speak for the other admins, but we're not going to hold your hand while you role-play. If you don't like that you and your friend aren't role-playing about the zombies, than
you do something about it. You're the ones not role-playing it out.
And you guys want more zombie overruns? Okay, we'll force the role-play some more. Oh, and I'm being sarcastic. More zombie overruns when it's not called for just sounds repetitive and forced role-play. Get off your asses and learn how to role-play. Yes, the admins are there to help you with your Bluzone experience, but we're not going to give you some Role-play 101 class in the server. Seriously, this is not even difficult. Go take a look at some of those links Nikki posted - or even start paying attention in English class. Maybe you'll learn something.
Yeah, I may come off a bit mean - not as lenient as the other admins, but tough nuts. You need someone to throw some sand in your eyes once and a while and tell you the blunt truth. Deal with it.
