it's the fact that we have had like 4 or 5 of these servers and they are basicly a circle-jerk of supr l33t roleplayrs.
Yeah I know what you mean there, especially regarding winterbite.
There was a lame focus on a few 'main characters' which wasn't fun for the majority of the players. I intend to keep roleplay simple and include anyone who can roleplay well. There will also be events that involve every player, or random players.
Believe me when I say I hate the idea of main characters in roleplay, but the thing is that there aren't all that many actual good roleplayers that play this game, and if you don't roleplay well you wont be included.
It's a pretty simple philosophy:
If you want to play this server you should know how/learn to roleplay well. If you don't want to do that then don't play the server.
