Pyrce High
A school, a murder and a killer, can you survive the round?

Koolkid50, do you even know why RKing is against the rules? It's not because people don't like the idea of dying on a murder mystery RPG. That's sort of the point. There's no denying that people complain about dying perfectly legitimate deaths, but RKing is something entirely different.

If you're randomly killed, it means you were killed for ostensibly no reason. Someone who is questioned about it can easily BS a reason. While I think people need to be more accepting of death, being denied a genuinely enjoyable roleplay is shitty too. It's not an invalid argument. There do exist people who aren't even roleplaying and yet, can kill someone for no reason just to deny them roleplay. This happens more often than you seem to think.

People on this game need to find a middle ground on issues like this. I don't really believe in forbidding RA since I think being attacked can create roleplay, but being killed denies it altogether. One of the reasons I was such an advocate of emote attacks was because it made RK less common, because RKing generally comes from people who don't even know the rules.

No, both of you can get over it.

Since this is such a hot topic issue in the community, why doesn't braska add like vote boot, where can you get someone booted from a match who is being a disturbance, and if they keep doing it, the punishment gets worse and worse.

I can honestly say nothing like that will ever likely be implemented because it can be abused by the players, as well as spammed.
Because that would be horribly abused as players would take matters into their own hands if they feel there is an injustice, even if there isn't.
Oh, so this argument is actually becoming a thing? Okay, then. Quite, frankly I'm sticking with what I said: People complain way too often about RK, even if it's not even RK and doesn't break any rule...Sure it might bend them, but that's the point of rules!

Do I speak with bias? Of course. I find RKing to be very nostalgic. Plus, there have been instances where I have followed the rules and killed someone within those limits, yet I got booted from the round, without even being told that I did something wrong (even though I didn't). Then all I get is: My Bad. I should let it go, but I can't if other people won't. So if people complain about RK. Please don't feed me by replying to me, 'cause that'll tempt me to reply again.
I believe all servers should make killing ONLY allowed for killers unless the player is defending themselves from the killer. Actually, this might be best to be a global rule! And I don't think any server should take out the emoting rule. Emoting before attacking is not only role-playing, but it explains the action of what the player is doing, which is good. Why in the hell would a role player take that out of their server's rules? It should be another global rule.

As much as I love killing; people would never just start killing other people. "Oh, hey, I'm a killer now! Yep, randomly I am crazy (nah, OOCly I am bored and just really love killing.) I count that as some sort of meta gaming since they are putting their own boredom in character, which is not how a role player should role play. I really do wish people would try harder, but it's hard because the staff members are taking it a little too easy on newbies, who never gets fixed on their game play. Instead they get warnings (and most of the time, staff members are AFK most of the time of day to actually ban them.) I see me yelling at players most of the time; I am trying to make everyone role play of how they are suppose to role play. This is only easy role playing, it's a lot harder on most games. Some BYOND games only have text.

Even though random killing is annoying, how can it be fixed if the rules practically supports it by saying you need a reason to kill someone. Classic times, it was the killer's job, and not be decided by the people who role plays their character's choice to start murdering. There is only supposed to be one killer unless the killer decides to get help on murdering the students in the school. If staff members of Pyrce High wants to stop most of the random killing. Just make the global rules state that the killer can only kill students in the school. Otherwise, what is the point in roles? That is how I see it.

Hm.

I agree with Meta Frost. Players would most defiantly abuse that option. A lot of players on Pyrce High are "ass holes", who most of the time just get on there to make a trolling character. Harnestu is a good example. You know the guy who always shouts "NIGGER!" and "RAPE TTTIIIIME!" during a game? Options like that shouldn't be around those kind of players. And after quoting this. Harnetsu is really stupid. :/
I think people need to take RPs with a grain of salt. This is a silly anime murder RP game. There doesn't need to be a huge emphasis on realism in an RP. Obviously most people in real life wouldn't start killing in a situation like this for small reasons, but it's only a game, remember.
There's a line to where reasonable motives become excuses, yes, but I think a good way to go about it would be to think of the round as an anime.
Could you see your RP as a plot development in some bloody anime? If so, then I think it would probably be acceptable to go through with. This depends on whose server you're playing on, of course, as hosts are free to choose specific rules, but as far as game-wide rules go, I would suggest that the above apply.
We're here to have fun, remember, not to go crazy elitist over rules.

Never knew it was an anime murder RP.

I was told it was a Japanese murder RP game.
And why would you suggest people not to go crazy about rules?

It's not fun being killed in a round from someone who broken the rules, then they ruined your RP. <---How can you have fun with rule breakers and retards who doesn't take realism serious. Even in anime there are realism in characteristic, players should start using it.
Because rules are in place to stop people from griefing, not to make sure they play exactly the way you want them to. Not everyone enjoys overly serious and realistic RP, and to say "No, you can't play the game" because of that is the definition of being elitist. I'm not talking about people who are just trying to ruin things.
You can't expect things to always go your way though, either. Sometimes you get killed in a way you're less than happy with, and that ruins your RP, yes, but you need to grin and bear it, and understand that it's not a big deal.
A game with too many restrictions in what you're allowed to do stops being fun at all.
Pyrce High has server options that state why type of Rp should be played I.E. Light/Medium/Heavy Roleplay. If you don't want to be serious, then go to a "Light" server. If you want something more serious, then go to a serious (Heavy) server.

Do I have to? Can't I just keep bitching about everything?
Message to anyone who is only getting the MOTD when they join: Byond has recently released a new update that seemed to fix the issue for me. Please attempt to update your BYOND.
http://www.byond.com/forum/?post=1275251 according to one of the admins on the site, he fixed the issue.
Just wondering if you are walking down a hallway and you are not bloody at all and your weapon is not bloody and 3 people are fighting and they come your way if 1 of them randomly walks up to you,starts spraying you with spray paint,and then kills you with another weapon do they get punished?BloodyBlades22 says he was afk so it doesn't count.I asked him if I could do the same thing to the guy who did it to me and Bloody said it would be rking but he rked in the first place and I have witnesses and proof.So I am wondering how is that fair and should that guy (Harnetsu) get banned for it?Should I be able to do the same thing to him without being banned since he didn't get banned?
I had a similar situation. I went afk for 2 mins to get a plate of food and then came back to me being RKd by a guy named harnetsu i confronted the host of the server about it an he said it was cool cause it was harnetsu i then told him i'd rk harnetsu in every round to come(like i'd know what he named his characters i was expressing hos i thought that him getting to RK people with no penalty was unfair) and i got banned for it
the host was MetaFrosty who
i think shud not be a host
he banned me for being the victim cause his friend was the culprit
(this was the last time he hosted)
Well, considering I haven't even been online on my server the past day (I forgot I had the server up and I was busy with other things), I can safely say that that did not happen, Hobo.
Also, upon checking the banlist, Harnetsu is banned and you are not. So I would love to know how you came up with this fabrication.
@Primo: That was not legal in the least, he should have been banned. I don't think on any server can someone in conflict randomly go attack happy on a bystander.

@Hobo: Frosty hasn't, to my knowledge, been on in days. Your story already has one hole in it. On top of this, to quote you...
"i then told him i'd rk harnetsu in every round to come(like i'd know what he named his characters i was expressing hos i thought that him getting to RK people with no penalty was unfair) and i got banned for it"
I wouldn't be shocked if you HAD been banned, which you were not to my knowledge (I've been busy trying to get water out of my house for the past two days, so I did not witness the events). What you described in that quote was an intent to metagame for the means of RKing, which in itself is a bigger issue than RK.
