It was just a opinion, I am not condoning such actions and administrators will punish accordingly.

Also, why am I the only one who voted yes?

Crook:
Admittance to trolling is bannable

Drydess:
op approaching a nuanced environment and immediately wanting to kill the king and wondering what he missed

Chris72003:
as an admin of the server it's stuff don't join it we still expect you to take the rp VERY SERIOUSLY you cant even jump on rooftops or i will phase through your monitor and personally shoot you

in all seriousness though my thoughts are exactly what crook said

It's about having the opportunity to be a part of an established world and develop your own story in it. You get to have a lot of agency over your own fate, get immersed into your characters backstory, come up with interesting/creative/unique storylines without having to worry about someone running up to you and raping the crouch and jump buttons to death while they kill you for no reason. Unfortunately that's all the average blocklander knows. But that being said an RP server is only as good as it's admins.

and not to sound like a bootlicking autist but the rules have lightened up a lot since the 5-year-ago first impression everyone had. 5 years, 2 hosts, and 1 boycott leads to a lot of refining in terms of how fun the server is.

I don't usually have a lot of patience for games where you cultivate a status and level up a toon, so that's why I don't give medirp servers the time of day. But for those of you who love that, can you describe what is so fun about the server? I would like to have fun and play with lots of blocklanders at a time too, I just want to know what it is you look forward to in a gamemode like that as you progress in it.

we usually only get about 20 people, today was just a good day (presumably because we had an event going on). crook explained the appeal pretty well but i think part of it is just escapism; it's enjoyable to act like someone you're not and to immerse yourself in something you probably wouldn't have the chance to experience IRL. that or you just like writing which is also cool
the server's sorta niche so i completely understand how people can love it or just hate it entirely, but usually the first impression is the most important and most of the time people richard around and get banned or they just don't find anything interesting to do so they leave and never rejoin

also on the topic of annoying servers, forget bcs if you like bcs forget you

i don't think i or any other admin has done this? you might be thinking of the old server but i'm unsure
also if you don't like medrp or bcs nobody's forcing you to join them? i don't see the point in complaining about a server you don't like having a lot of players seeing as most of the players who play on these don't join anything else
