To be fair, why not try it out? If it doesn't work, so be it. Scrap it. If someone doesn't like it, they can role-play the way they want.


Because it;s the matter of how the rule works, who would be those "in-charge" of 42 land claim making them the higher up (which with a lot of bias situation and hate towards each other it's a bad idea) So, all that wouldn't be fair, not only that but a lot of people here suggest on kicking the leader out of being a leader if the kingdom is a once a week active plot rp, which isn't really fair. Plus TO respond to an old post, POK/POC do allow people to join them in a public rp and so on, just when it comes to plot, most people just don't join even when asked. Or when in the thread it's said it's ok.

Why is there a need for someone to lay claim to a piece of land or for an election to have some sort of 'hierarchy'?

If groups like Kinshra, Nova, Godless, Warrior's Guild and many other independent factions that only claim a land OOCly so everyone knows where the main hub of activity is, then why the need for all this?

POC/POK(s) are great and all but you don't need to control all of Falador so you and 5 of your friends can rp being rich guys with lots of cool trinkets.

I'm not sure where anyone said to kick the leader out if they only RP once a week (that is pretty ridiculous), but when it's weeks of inactivity. We all know POKs have done that and yet refuse to relinquish control of it.

But that's none of my business. #kermit

Because if you don't play nice and do exactly as the leaders want, they'll spread the word that you're not to be recognized. That'll force a hit to how much interest and activity comes your way. It's a subtle way to control what blossoms and what doesn't. Well, barely, but it's still subtle enough to go without getting called out most of the time.

Despite this, land claims or whatever is dumb. I do like the idea of only putting trusted people in power, and once they stop being trusted, replace them. It forces people to be on their best behavior and discourages stupid shit.

ya don't need a crown to create role-play
ya don't need to be the OOC leader of a PoK, or within that person's group of friends/admins to role-play and create role-play there (or at least you shouldn't)
role-play shouldn't be focused entirely on PoKs

the problem lies with the fact people are "i want a chance to run (insert name of PoK), I'll generate loads of activity!"

you don't need to lead or run anything to make RP there tbh, but apparently being acknowledged as a ruler is important to be relevant

OOC BS makes up a large amount of it. I don't take kindly to people who harass my clan members, though I'm in no position to do anything but shake a cane at the young'ins. But to many people? I've given second, third, and fourth chances and they are still the quality of people who make the idea of a fun hobby go sour.

These people, not the rulebreakers, but bitter people who stalk my facebook, give thinly veiled threats, spread graphic pictures of a friend to his family, and push other friends to heavy drinking? That's my blacklist.

Rotten roleplaying can be tutored. But I have no patience to deal with rotten attitudes.


Shit people will continue to be shit, that is all there is to it
I am more than happy to continue not interacting with the people who exist to harass others and hardly perform any real role-playing; if that is called blacklisting then so be it

This is only 50% the right attitude. The other 50% is that so-called leaders who do nothing, are inactive, are simply not as good as the people who do generate rp in "their" area need to recognise that they are no longer the leader. They stopped being the leader when someone else became the leading factor. That new leader is entitled to be the leader if they want. That's a merit based system, and that is what we should be aspiring to be.

Of course, it can be argued that it is more complex than that, because people are shit, but we shouldnt allow "leaders" desires to be the leader get in the way of real leaders. We should not allow the excuse of "you don't have to be the leader to make rp" be used as a way to force the 'non' leaders to accept a diminished status and squander their aspiration in favour of the decadent comfort of the incumbent.

Edit:
I say we, but obv I mean ye. I sometimes just have nothing better to do that watch and contribute to these forums when I've exhausted other avenues of distraction.

This isnt a community. Thats a fact. I did my research and I got my evidence. Its actually kind of creepy and messed up. Listen;


This is a place where 1 -3 people have multiple accounts.

Pretending they are other players making posts in these forums.
Pretending they are stirring up drama and hating on people, breaking rules and shitpoating on their own threads. Insulting themselves to make them look good.

When truthfully, its just ONE guy controlling them. All of them!


The RP Community IS dead. Thats why this swearing and discrimination and extremely offensive remarks, choice of words and insults you will see being shitposted on threads remains without consequence. They do NOT get anyone enlisted or muted or warned or anything BECAUSE its one guy doing it all, to HIMSELF! Jagex knows this as they can relate the multiple accounts to you specificly.

With that being said, I dont expect nor do I care for the reply on it by the "RP Alts" - we are in a forum, where ONE guy is pretending to be multiple people in here who owns other POK's.



Dude, what im trying to tell you is that there is a grown ass man in here, pretending to talk to himself, acting like other players, and shitposting and leaving insults to make himself look good. You dont seriously believe that a handful of players always share the same layout of wording, opinions and childish mentality? No its just one guy, dude. Its a creep show in here.

When I found that out, I actually laughed. 'All of you' are pathetic.

Meaning, "the one guy controlling 8 accounts" is pathetic.

As for me and maybe one more? Thats it. You have maybe 12 people in here but one guy is controlling 10 of them, and that jusy leaves two real players such as myself and another, to be in here.

And we all know who that one guy is that is pretending to be players. So i suggest you PoK with non roleplay clans and do NOT get involved with whatever WEIRDO is taking over RP 'community' as one guy on multiple accounts.
As you touch the ancient tablet, you feel your power and energy drain slightly from within you.
