Vanguard Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Roleplaying. Interesting.... Being that im really into Roleplaying, i have YET to see any on SWG ! all i see is abunch of Jackass's with RAD names like IwillbeForce Sensitive,,OMG-you-HACK,,Abcdefghi,, and about a ton of BlahChaccas, whatevers.. I really think Developers should be watching and DESTROYING any Jackoff with a stupid ass name. My ignore list is near 30 people.. And NPC mobs that say Hey Whats Up ! WTF, ! if u need someone to walk around an bounce people outta the Galaxy, plz give me the job, theres nothing more i would enjoy then walking around AH and Banning them from Existience.. Them as in (the Assclowns with the Great and orginal names). Now your probley saying to yourself, Hey this guy has no life,, No i have a great life, but im just Sick of seeing DumbShAt !.. Gezzus for the love of God .. Do the name filters even work. IM done Ranting, but in all seriousness , something needs be done, im sure Lucas would agree, in fact i know he would, hes an old Drinking buddy of mine, its true, oh its true -/shrug- just a thought !

Writer Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Not very nice, but I'm sure you have a reason. Why is this forum not being used for roleplaying? That's what it's name is!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Gaarni Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 First off, wrong forum. *Yoink* Secondly, could you keep it down just a notch or 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 8 Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 I agree with jan.... calm down please but i also agree with you solehearted. (sp?) i really dont like it went people have weird names. i mean come on.. this isnt some shoot em up game where the greatest names like: STFU-you-n00b. or Iownzzyou. are really popular but other then that i dony have many complaints about the roleplaying. ofcourse there are times when you just CANT roleplay. ... in situations as LAG... or something similar. but ignoring people for saying: hey whats up.... goes a little to far. the 3 people i have on ignore are the people who kept JUMPING in the air for like..... FOREVER (must have been a macro) really anoying in chats. and for using bad language against one of my members. I do hope the devs fix the filter tho.

Vanguard Posted November 4, 2003 Author Share Posted November 4, 2003 Ok ill calm down for now my friends.. its good to see other Roleplayers around.. I get a little crazy sometimes, thats just me.. but ill give u a small insight,, I spent four years in the Greatest Roleplaying Guildever, Game will not be mentioned, because i left, due to the fact it faded.. Now i come to SWG , with a good idea that this game will however be somewhat different from all the posts ive read from the Developers, and how they vowed to Filter Everyones names an such,,.. well as u see, they cant even due that.. It just erks me sometimes, that a game with so much potiental gets overlooked...As far as the Whats up thing,, i never banned anyone for that,, THOES were NPC Characters,, None Player Characters ,saying stuff like Whats up! Never in Star Wars Did i hear Han solo say, Hey Whats up Luke? Whats the dilly ? Foooo Shizzle Chewy i heaaaarrdd DAT ! Yo.. But in SWG , u can clearly get that impression from some toons.. LOL< i only put clowns on my ignore list, that have Totally Ridiculous names.. well im off to go Slay some Stupid namers ! Laters - -V- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagobahn Eagle Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 I see where you're coming from. I've got a serious name and I even pondered for a minute or so about what it was going to be. Then I wrote a biography that filled -and passed- the word limit. I had to cut whole phrases to get it to fit. In-game, I try to act 'realistic' (waving, etc.), sometimes even to NPCs. I sit down when I'm micromanaging something, but only in places where it's likely I'd sit down (by the water, for example, never in the middle of the street). I also try to get into my role of an 18-years old imperial-hating orphan girl. People who don't do these things, but don't use silly names and don't act like their on a haxxor festival? Fine by me. Not everyone's got time and creativity to write a biography either. Others, on the other hand: Me: Why is your name '1 R00L 4LL U N00BZ!!!!11111' Him: ":p" Me: Why don't you have a biography? Him: ":rolleyes: OMG WTF LOL!11111" Okay, the said conversation hasn't taken place, but I'm sure a similar one has. And Vanguard is right: I have never heard Han go "OMG WTF 0R SH13LD5 R D0WN 1 M0R3 H1T L1K3 TH4T.....!!!!!1111".... I think most people who do this are just too anxious to get into the game. Once they get involved and would like to get serious, their character is getting too advanced for a change to one that's got a serious name...

impala Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 I agree with some of what you all say. But... you have to keep in mind there are a lot of people like me that never even touched a roleplaying game until SWG arrived. As for what is said, I would like to see a profanity filter. How much profanity did you hear in the films? I can only think of 2 acounts were "profanity" was used. Lea could even call Han a profane name when she was mad at him. That may be a little to conservative for some of you out there, but I 've ran into a lot of Kids out there that just keep typing profanity. Grow up, use your big boy voice when your in the game plz. One of the cool things about Star Wars is it's sutible for all ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EsahC Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 I RP whenever I am given the oppertunity to. But when people are calling you gay and other stupid things, it makes it even funner to stay in character and play along hehehe, /kiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsbhorseshoe Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 What servers are you all on and what are your character names? I'd love to find a group to adventure with. I'm not a powergamer and my char is still only on the cusp of becoming a novice Smuggler and a novice CH, but I am big on doing story-based missions and traveling the galaxy to see the sights. My chars name is Vand Delesor on the Bria server. Look me up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkEyes Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 RolePlaying is fantastic. It gives you a chance of becomming someone else you've allways dreamed of being. More importantly is that the world of SWG lets you choose your own way of living. But by living we mean a way of going about doing things that you in one way or another would do in normal life. With that i mean that no one will ever walk on the street, stepping up to someone and shouting "Hey, I OWNZ you". Thats just plain stupid and if there is someone who would do this please let me know cause i love to see things that are actualy never happening. Me and my friend, although not realy using specific SW names, are trying our best in being that Imperial affected players who trade and try to get the best deals out of everything etc. etc. The beauty part is when u are trying to do all those things with people doing the same. Living like folks actualy comming from Tatooine, actulay beeing that farm boy trying to become something and in general not thinking they are behind the keyboard. I love to RP and encourage everyone to join us to make that galaxy a true real life experience its meant to be. (ok done, flame away... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
