Hey guys!
This is a guide on how to enhance your roleplaying skills.
For those who doesn't know how to Roleplay, you're on the right
spot!
This is a bit advance, so please understand before going on. I
hope it can help ! =D
---------------------------------------------((THIS GUIDE IN NOT
MINE))-------------------------------------------------------
What's Roleplay, And how to Roleplay?
Roleplay means taking a role of a person, you can roleplay as a
medic, gangbanger, mobster, or anything use your
imagination, Before you start roleplaying, You should choose
what you would roleplay, You have alot of choices, But make sure
you plan whats gonna be your character goal, like is he gonna be
a criminal, or a cop, or would he be insane, who just escaped
from the asylum, Its upto to you, Don't be afraid to RP as a
civilian, since everyone here joins gangs, mafia's or services,
but civilian is also good, or you can start a legit businessman,
or a politic person, Also plan what age your character is gonna
be, and what clothes his gonna wear, and what dream he would
have.
RP Driving guide.
Since this server is based on America, you must drive on the
right side >
If you crash, You must RP the accident, And you must NEVER park
your car ontop of a player, You can get jailed/warn/kick for it,
So avoid doing that, and REMEMBER not to drive like a mad
person, If your character is RP-ing he can't drive, then you can
RP it, but if you crash, then RP it please, and if you got
oncoming cars coming towards you, you'd probably be thinking
what to do, so he or you would pull over, and if you do collide,
then you would be badly injured, and be polite to the drivers,
like people would be IRL, no matter even if your a gangster, Let
them pass if they need to, don't rush, and you don't need to
follow the lights, since they're unsynchronized, But if you
would like to, then you may, And if a cop's following you, and
your legit, and got nothing to hide, then you should pullover,
but remember to not make up things.
Driveby's:You are not allowed to do driveby's by pressing Q or
E, since they auto-aim, and wherever you would hit, It would hit
them, As thats a ban / jail offence, But your passengers may
driveby, But remember to roleplay it...For
example:[me=Alan]unzips his jacket, and takes out a
mp5.[/me][me=Alan]rolls down the windows, and leans out.[/me]
Alan says: 3rd street fo' lyfe.
Carjacking: Remember, that if you press enter, and jack a car
with a person onit, it Perfoms a animation, but thats not
needed, you must always try to RP the carjack, for
example.[me=Alan]smashes the window's with his deagle's handle,
and unlocks the door.[/me][me=Alan]opens the door, and aims the
gun at him.[/me]
Alan shouts: Yo' dis' da' saints property now.
But its upto you if you decide to kill him, or take him out of
the car.
Parking Guide: What most people do is park their car at the
middle of the road, and get out, IRL you'd have a fear of the
cop, and wouldn't do that, So park your car at the side, and
don't park your car the opposite side of the road.
Interacting with People/ Gangs:Remember to not look at the
people's tag which is over there head, and call them that, you
know that its not them, and alot of people metagame by calling
them with their tags, which isn't fair for the other people, As
this is a jail/warn/kick offence, so do not that, and If someone
unknown knows your name, and number, then ask him how he got his
number / name? Its ok, don't be afraid, if you suspect that he
metagamed to get that, then you could report him, and make the
admins check the log, Or you can stay regardless thinking he
spied on you, and is a assassin, If you get prank calls, then
just hang up, And if you get surrounded by a group of gangsters,
or people, and they ask you for your money, your job would be to
give them your money with your /me's, and not run away, since
your afraid, and remember if a single person aims a gun at you,
give them your money / items, cause IRL you'd be afraid to not
get shot, so be aware of this, thanks.
Calling 911:Remember not to prank call, or troll with 911, since
you wouldn't do that IRL, so its best to RP it, and if your
injured, or something, or see someone injured, then you may call
the paramedics, and the cops would also come with them, and if
you got a problem and you think someone's trying to kill you,
then you can file a report to the 911, or RP it, and see what
the LS-PD can do, but at the moment, LS-PD here isn't advanced,
so you could leave this.
LicensesRemember to RP getting licenses, So it would be more
fun, and don't think about time, theres alot of time, so if you
would wanna get a license, for example a gun license to protect
your self from any criminals would be good, and don't get a gun
license, If you been busted for murder, since it would be
NON-RP, and the license people always check your criminal
record.
What to do if you get arrested by cops, or cuffed:Just stay
calm, and don't panic, Plan what you will do, you can simply
headbang the cop, and step on his foot, and run to a place with
your cuffs on you, and find a way to cut the cuffs, And it would
be best to RP the arrest if you got alot of cops near you, and
what alot of people do when they're bored is provoke cops, they
go near them, and say some words, and ram the car, making the
cops chase them, which is a bannable / warnable / kickable
offence, PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS.
Now lets get to the IC / OOC Rules.
What IC stands for? And what does it mean?
IC stands for incharacter, and its related to RP, and this is
one of the main point of RP, so, theres some IC commands that
let you chat IC-ly for example /l (Local chat), /s (shout), /r
(IC Radio), /w (Whisper), /sms YOU ARE ALLOWED TO USE SMILEYS ON
/SMS, SINCE YOU WOULD DO THAT IRL, /note, Note that, If you do
use /note, please RP it, for example, /me takes out a pen, and a
small piece of ripped paper from his jeans right
pocket.[me=Alan]starts scribbling something on the
note.[/me][me=Alan]gives it to Emilio.[/me]
So, then whatever you typed, it will appear on the player's
screen to whom you gave the note to..
What OOC stands for? And what does it mean?
OOC stands for Out Of Character, anything related to out of
character meaning, talking about something that isn't related to
your character's roleplay, Something related to your real life,
or something that you did, or you discussing about some stuff,
is called OOC, But remember, If you got a xbox live IRL, and you
think its metagame to say it here, then your wrong, Cause you
can RP your character has a xbox live ingame, by RP-ing it, And
you can use some OOC commands to interact with people, for
example../o (Global Chat), /b (People near you would see it, its
like /l, but OOC) and /f (OOC Radio chat for the hi's and good
morning's).
What's NON-RP?
Now, If someone says to you, you can't RP, and you get confused
a little, and your like No i'm not, But remember, to accept
critism's since it will help you increase your RP standards, and
remember to consider them, But lets get to the point, Whats Non
RP? Non RP means, doing something thats unrealistic, and cannot
be done in real life, or you wouldn't do in real life, like
drive around smashing lots of walls, and not RP-ing the effect,
and Yes, its similar to Powergaming, Or hopping around all over
the world, Well thats called NON-RP, And you get called NON RP,
if you break any of the RP rules, so be careful please.
What does MG Stand for? And what does it mean?
Well, MG Stands for Metagaming, And metagaming means, Mixing IC
over OOC, For example, if you meet a person, and you just look
at the name at the top of his head, and you call him by that,
Thats considered Metagaming, Or if you find out about gangs or
mafia's OOC-ly, or you got told by someone by /pm's, or You'd
tell people to come to you by /pm's is also considered
Powergaming, If you see anyone breaking these rules, then screen
their messages / actions by pressing F8 and upload them to a
website, like imageshack, tinypic, and post them to the report
section at the home board.
What does PG stand for? And what does it mean?
PG stands for Powergaming, and it means, doing something thats
IMPOSSIBLE to do in real life, like picking up a bus, Which no
one IRL could do, or not giving someone a chance to RP, or
respond to your /me's, for example, if you..[me=Alan]throws
Emilio from the star tower.[/me]
* Pushes him with the lmb command *
Then he would fall down, I didn't gave him a chance to respond
to /me's by /do.
This is a really important topic, Powergaming, This is something
that most people have no idea off, and if you got this, then
you'll become good at RP-ing, and someday proffesional at
RP-ing, So i'll explain how to do this.
Now for example, I'll be Alan, and my opponent will be Emilio.
[me=Alan]punches Emilio in the face.[/me]
Emilio: Fail, He doges the punch.
So, If you plan on trying to fail, and avoid the person's
action, think what would happen in real life, then let it
happen, And then respond by /do S(success, or f(fail, with a
REASON.))
And also don't try to do double actions, if you type /do fail,
or succeed like /do f, Emilio zaps you in the balls, which is a
action without a /me, so do not do that, but do it with a
seperate /me and remember to keep everything RP.
NOTE: If you do not get this part, Feel free to contact me
ingame, My nick is Peter_Owens, And i will gladly help you at
this part
What does RK stand for? And what does it mean?
RK stands for revenge kill, And it means killing a person that
killed you before 30 minutes, or so, or the required time,
Because your suppose to RP that you lost your memory, and got no
idea, what happened back there, So its best to keep to your self
OOC-ly, but if you died near your friend, it doesn't mean, Your
dead to your friend, your friend can actually visit you at the
hospital, and ask what happened to you, and how, and RP it,
remember to RP this please.
What does CK stand for? And what does it mean?
CK stands for Character kill, and it means that your character
is officially dead, and he no longer belongs to the real world,
But don't worry, that doesn't mean, you would loose your levels,
and your account will get banned, you can just simply
/changenick, and get your new nick simply, but what most people
do is ignore the CK's, but don't forget that, CK requires YOUR
permission FIRST, If someone says you got CK-ed, and they didn't
asked you, don't believe them, they're trying to trick you into
loosing your character, So its upto you if you wanna be CK-ed or
not, But if you get into a good role-play situation, then you
might need to accept CK, but don't worry, as i said you won't
loose your property / cash, but only your friends, and people
that you knew ingame.
What does DM stand for? And what does it mean?
DM stands for deathmatch, and it means killing a person without
a roleplay manner, also known as killing someone for fun,
without any roleplay, and just killing that person even if you
got no war between you, note that this is a jailable / banable /
kickable offence, so do not try to do this.
