Dear jail rp hosters,
Why you need to moderate these things



A jail rp is probably one of the most abusable types of server there is, yet regardless of this, almost all of these types of servers have bad moderaters, are put together poorly, or are just an exact copy of another server. I have no idea why people who host these don't really learn from this, they improve things that don't need to be improved etc. Many of these servers have potential, but often as a result of bad moderation, their potential is never shown.



As you can see, everybody is screaming in all caps about every goddamn thing you can think of. This is only after about 5 minutes of playing (or you could say; waiting for the round to finish so I can spawn), I'm pretty sure though that all of you have experience with this server. These servers need to be moderated, or they will fail.

Any server turns out like this with people who are incompetent.
But their servers will have the most players for whatever reason. I dont know why people put up with that stuff.

Completely agree. Also, I'd like to point out that another reason why jail Rps have so many problems is because of all the free-killing. Enough of that garbage.

Jail RP(s) aren't even role playing games. They are just fancy deathmatches. Do you know how rare it is to have someone break out of jail and then the guards run around shooting up everyone?

Jail RP should include sitting inside your jail cell all day doing nothing because that's what jail is suppose to be.



Jail RP servers are just deathmatches, no more no less.

Yeah. I tried to make my own Jail RP with very strict rules and a very big map with roleplaying elements that's supposed to cut the deathmatch trait off and make it more of an escape game without a lot of weapons but never got around to finishing the map because I'm too busy with other things.

In jail RP's, fun and chaos is what they are about.

Why cant we have an anarchy jail RP for once?

I made a Jail RP once. It involved doing absolutely nothing. No one got out of their cells, no guards shooting people, no prisoners getting out, nothing. My server was full with 20 people for about 5 straight hours and people actually stayed. Oh god there was so many of them complaining about wanting a weapon or going out to pee (they had toilets in their cells) or going out to eat (they had food in their cells).

The irony of course was that I had a few people shouting "THIS IS NOT A loving JAIL RP YOU loving handicap WHERE IS THE loving GUNS loving friend" and I simply explained this is how a Jail RP is suppose to be.

Wow.
Wow, Lord Tony. Just wow. That's a real Jail RP.
However, Prisoners in real jails actually do get to leave their cells and go to recess. You could have added more to make it more of a "Jail RP"

No I said I would let them out for recess. However all this would be applied to REAL TIME. Meaning in the next couple hours they are allowed to have recess. Instead of randomly every 5 minutes.
