mrp is lrp with more rules around conflict to try and give more players breathing room to explore situations that involve conflict before jumping to mechanics. death is the end of a story, so we try to encourage more lenience when it can be given so that the story can continue to develop when killin...

jeff has good capabilities as hos and good mechanical knowledge of the game but he needs to exercise his typing skills some more ingame. wordless sec trying to win the game at all costs is insufferable. we're not playing counterstrike. even when an antag is caught, they should get RP out of it with ...

this thread has dchat energy

that is a very beautiful kitty cat thank you for sharing!!!

I main Terry/Sybil and occasionally get on Manuel. I hate being an antag on Manuel because if I roll something that doesn't have a license to kill everyone, if I happen to kill someone unrelated to my objective, the players will not hesitate to ahelp you to tie you up in admin PMs even if they know...

you coul;d say it's very...................................................................................................................................expansive

MRP has good mechanical players just like LRP does, and LRP has good roleplayers just like MRP does, it’s more about individuals than servers really. It’s literally just a handful of people on every server who make up the extrema, and everyone understands that. It’s just more fun for people to be l...

I believe the problem is that while they are no longer viewable in game, several of the external tools don't pay attention to the expiry info mostly from a lack of developer time availability to add it. and they aren't actually removed from the underlying database tables, only set as "expired&...

Meanwhile MRP players accuse LRP players (rightfully or wrongly) of essentially safari hunting by playing on Manuel specifically to dunk on the less robust player base. I have to interrupt this intellectual discussion for a sec to just say the idea of antagrollers “Manuel-poaching” is fucking hilar...

please be kind :c

i said on the first page of this thread that i'd like to see expiring notes become the norm. it's already how i use them. lots of the new admins also feel the same way. there is not much except the most egregious of rulebreaks that i would consider worthy of being a permanent part of someone's record.

in my honest opinion it's an easy mistake (but still a mistake nonetheless) to assume all admins form some kind of agreeable hivemind around every decision. every discussion that comes up in adminbus is beautifully productive because almost always people are disagreeing and making their case on it. ...

It is clear that there is a reason why we don't hard filter rape is because we allow it to exist for these more lighthearted encounters. That as the admin himself called it a "joke line" it would not fall under the purview of rule 8. If you wanted it explicit you're not getting that becau...

based MSO response, it's nice to get clarification on the big man's views I personally think the word rape can be used, in a very restricted roleplay context and never between player characters. Mentioning surviving it, or being concieved from it, or someone from your backstory going to jail due to ...

good to see this thread be productive and not go the way of all other threads where people who don't play mrp say how much they hate it because it's pure evil and unfun for x reason and then all the actual players try fruitlessly to say that x doesn't actually happen i'd hate it if this thread turn...

people who don't play mrp say how much they hate it because it's pure evil and unfun for x reason and then all the actual players try fruitlessly to say that x doesn't actually happen I've never tried Manuel aight good post dude thanks for proving my point. tribalism is pointless. you prefer lrp: i...

this has made me realize that actually, yeah, you can't see if you have stacked bans from the player end.

placing a server ban along with the job ban is a common ruling. server ban for the behaviour, job ban to restrict your access to the tools that enabled that behaviour.

I really do not like how many of the admins who mocked the appeal suddenly went silent when Timber and Keith went and slammed the hammer. At least apologise for jumping the gun. i wish i was there for the discussion around this in retrospect, i feel like it could've quite easily been stopped with a...

i dont see why this isnt as simple as going "hey charley dont do that again" and she goes "okay lesson learned" Mmm, no, I don't think words will suffice for this one. I have, however, figured out an alternative solution. I implore you all to draw a Squidward image as alternativ...

friendly antagonists are stupid. and you know what? greentexting is stupid too. guess what happens in the majority of satisfying stories? the bad guys lose and the good guys win. roll antag, go in with a plan, make it good, and die trying. meekly trying to ask people for a win or tryharding and scur...

You know since Bible didn't seem to know what rule I banned(kept flipping between rule 1 and rule 8) I gotta ask what what rule this note was placed under. My entire argument here is that if this is indeed some unspoken rule that the admin team has been secretly appealing then that should come out....

sorry crag this thread has spun so far out of control that i actually forgot it was about your appeal.

we tolerate murder because it's Socially Acceptable In A Video Game, rape and sexual assault in general isn't . I agree with all of that. We aren’t exactly talking about rape and sexual assault though, we’re talking about the WORD “rape” being said, in a context having nothing to do with it. That’s...

i generally thank people for their time when i'm asking for some of it (in the case of things like an appeal) not for the act of being banned. it's just a courtesy that is important to me to extend to others. i don't expect it when i'm in an ahelp with players as an admin at all, whether it's result...

as for the second part, a lot of admins haven't commented or were, like me, not involved in the situation and so are learning about it purely in retrospect, just like players are. peanut threads are prime candidates for circlejerking. allowing a public platform for baseless gawking by anyone (let a...

i'm sure there was no inciting incident that caused this thread to be made and that this is purely an observation being made in good faith :clueless: cuffbuckle him under a shower then use a wrench to make the shower water either hot OR cold (cold works really well on lizards :D) dang i didn't actua...

if you quote latin in a ban appeal you should have it escalated to a perma immediately I'm quoting Akkadian instead if you do this i will remove your ban IMMEDIATELY the opinion on this might be torn between different admins. seems to me like a lot of jannies deemed this player's gratitude for his ...

hiya crag

sounds like positive notes are more a hassle than anything. the last thing i'd want as a player is some stuck up jannie to feel like i owe them for it. i give out positive notes all the time to people that put a lot of effort into a gimmick that makes the round really special or people who take an ...

imo expiring notes should become the norm except for very extreme and significant cases of rule breaking behaviour. in my experience if you tell a player "this note will expire in 2 weeks/1 month/6 months/a year given that you don't do something similar again" then they will try to learn f...

As I stated there, my objective was the removal of the notes simply because I don't think what I did at the round even if ruled out to be wrong (which was since I served the ban), deserved the treatment I received on the points I highlighted from the ban appeal. Again, the length of the ban quite w...

i'd like to interject here with what i feel is relevant about how bans work: bans always come with a note. the ban needs a reason that's formally recorded, and this serves doubly as a note. there aren't really cases where we will uphold a ban for being valid, but remove the "note" associat...

i'm so proud of our headmin posting his first essay... it's so beautiful

while i know this is a joke caused by CURRENT EVENTS i'm going to ruin it by coming in with a serious opinion: a lot of people in this community use it as an escape from tough times in their life, and find a lot of value in it that genuinely helps them. i've done it and i know a lot of good players ...

the crux of this whole thing is that they don't like having a note on their account. we should let them know that almost every single admin (headmins included) have notes on their accounts. it's just part of the game and a way to keep track of what you've been told by admins, that's literally it. ev...

he still hasn't answered the question that was posed multiple times: why did you choose to shoot them? if you don't answer that question we don't have enough information to make a ruling, hence why it's upheld, because you've made it impossible to resolve. goodness gracious...
