People tend to forget that Wulfeh catered Globalists to be more RP-driven, likewise with his SNCO and CO staff team. And this whole argument about him nit-picking his buddies? Absolute bull.

Powley, amongst many others, weren't necessarily on great terms with Wulfeh to begin with, but did Wulfeh decide to ignore people like Powley when it came to leadership positions? No. Because Wulfeh recognised that past problem needed to be put aside, and Powley put his heart and passion into trying to achieve what many of us were doing for Globalists.

And hell, the entire CO, SNCO and even JNCO team did a tremendous job in accomplishing a high-standard within the faction.

But with my point, the problem with WW3, is not that it lacks the ability to have a decent level of RP or lacks decent faction leads, it's that it naturally appeals to people who prefer S2K a lot more than just RP. That's not anyone's fault per say, it's just how WW3RP is.

Let me lay it out for you. You increase the standard of RP in one faction (per say Globalists), you in effect start to do less S2K (because y'know, people are actually roleplaying, odd concept aye?). But you see, all those people who complain there's fuck all to do but RP on WW3, join the opposing faction (as has been in the past, Coalition). In the end, you have one faction that RPs, and one that doesn't.

Because, that's how WW3RP is divided, between those who want to RP and those who desire more S2K.

You can't have both, and that's something you just have to face. Me, Wulfeh, Robin, a bunch of other faction leads realised, the moment you begin upping the standard of RP in your faction, there's less S2K overall. SDs get pressured into disbanding our little RP, because Coals are getting too bored, and then it all comes down to nothing.

But let's be realistic, WW3 is just not tailored for RP, if not - at all. However much effort faction leaders put in, it just doesn't matter.

I can't remember 100% but if this is referring to the preparation of the event map, wasn't it catastrophe maker (Ironic name) who nuked the place and made all the props fly away, unless this is a different situation.

No, that was when Bork and Toasty was around and he did it on the shitty long open range desert map with mountains all around the edges. It was when the Globalists had the fallout type base. Bork banned him slash demoted. I'm talking about when Daraku was about.

I did nuke, but it wasnt during set up.

Sure.

WW3RP started losing its essence when all the old people started leaving, it wasn't that it changed and then they left.
The server has simply shape-shifted and catered towards the crowd it had.


What the hell is the point of this and how is this relevant at all? Other then being an asshole, that is.

You're right it really isn't. But I get triggered when people pretend they know what they were talking about so I dropped my bag of spaghetti on the thread. I won't replying anymore to @Rondal or provoke him. Sorry, still love you, no homo Angel.

The last time you recounted something which I did was over a year ago, and it doesn't hold much credibility to what happens now.

The playerbase has changed and as a result so has the atmosphere and style of the server. During 1983rp we had a great staff team that co-operated with one another with no drama and a solid group of individuals that made up the playerbase and staff-team alike. We had RP, we had S2K. All was right with the world. Et cetera. Blah blah, we can talk about how great things were at x time during x's reign as SD.

But things change, people leave and go and all that shit. We can sit around all day and point fingers and who fucked what up or who was better than who or whatever.

Or we can compile these criticisms in a rational way and begin to work on them as a playerbase. Instead of calling for the heads of some members of staff / of the community. Or calling for the server to be shut down.

no he spawned so many rag dolls in a corner over the course of a few minutes that he crashed the server on that map we used for korea surface
I should've stopped him but I was too busy laughing my ass off for some reason

then two days later he nuked and crashed the server again and got demoted

He nuked the Iraq map after we spent 2 hours setting it up.

ok but seriously i know @Roosebud is sd and can make his own decisions
but please take the words of these oldfags and myself with a grain of salt, putting aside some of the bashing
since i can understand why they do it, considering its usually all i do.

idt ive seen a single thread yet where some of the people who put more effort into the server than a lot, if not more than current staff, (mostly due to experience, again, not trying to bash anyone) all come together and generally have the same agreement in that more roleplay needs to be promoted and that staff should be pressured to do their jobs more instead of cutting them out and adding a script to do their job for them

and we all say this because we actually experienced a server director who did this, and we've all seen the simple act of working with your staff team work wonders
if old ww3rp staff can run a server smoothly through some of the most toxic shit ive ever seen then why cant the current one when its clearly less toxic

I remember when he blew it up. I was working on something across the map, and then he blew it up and props went flying everywhere.

I remember Cata spawning in ammo boxes in 3 x 5 orientation, stacked three times.
He was an operator at the time and I'm psure he didn't realize it was against the rules, and said "You won't get banned".
