Need a few questions answered about AD

Yes, please forget that.
I tried to apologize.
My perspective on Roleplaying has changed alot, and after witnessing it/participating it, I wish to engage in the activity.
This is no banter topic, although I am aware my name still causes some mistrust.

Yeah, I can imagine. If it depended on me, I’d rather not see you on our server, simply because there are a borders that should not be crossed, and you did that, by miles. Maybe there are folks that will be more willing to let it pass

At this point Im probably just gonna switch character, guess that way is safer.

You’re going to hate checkpvp then

I can assure you that we’d know :slight_smile: there’s quite a lot of ways to figure out who someone is…

Best to stick with it and prove yourself, I’d say.

Silvermoon is dead as far as RP goes

There’s big public hubs like Valley of Honor and Stormwind

It varies. Some guilds are extremely lax, some have high activity quotas.

peak roleplay hours are +/- 20-22 server time, so do all your daily stuff before that and you should be fine.

Not that I necessarily disagree, but if we wanted to remove everyone who’d had a heated gamer moment from the server, we’d be down to about half a dozen players.

On topic: Welcome to the server, if this is genuine and not a troll effort. The best advice I think any of us can give is to just dip your toes into random roleplay in a major hub and see how you enjoy it once you have a character in mind to play.

Your questions seem a bit confused about roleplay in general.

Here’s a pretty good guide for general advice.

Really simple. You got 2 states. Out of character (OOC) and In Character (IC).

Let’s say you do some roleplay and talk to someone in character. Now you lose the motivation to roleplay because you wanna do some battlegrounds (just an example, can be raid or whatever). So now you make something up where your character goes because any content that the game offers where your character is on “in character”, then it does not matter for roleplay.

So put this into example:

Orc (you): “Hey there!”
Random goblin: “Hello, can I help you?”
Orc (you): “No, just looking around” Loses motivation to roleplay
Orc (you): “I think I will leave. I am pretty tired, so going to bed”

You then pretend your character goes to bed (or whatever you make up), put yourself to OOC (there is a switch button on the trp) and then you can do content.

Also you can just say your character was present at X without ever going there or doing the content. My goblin for example was in Naz’jatar without ever actually stepping a foot there gameplay wise. But don’t do things like that you killed Arthas. You can say that you were in the army to defeat him though.

You can do roleplay with randoms too, which is my own prefered way. Guilds usually want activity in terms of you participating in events and social gatherings.

Like any of us. OOC for content your character doesn’t do, IC for any roleplay.

Most guilds have set times for events. If they are big, just regular social gatherings are possible too. Needs numbers though.

I haven’t seen one guild yet that allows that. Most want activity from their members. Especially smaller guilds.

I also really recommend the guide

I mean, I personally never saw an apology, merely a response/reply later from you going “Lmao, just a joke, ya’ll thin-skinned”(Not exact wording, but basically the essence of it)

An admission of wrongdoing is more than most will admit to, mind.

Very much true, and I’m happy he’s admitting he did wrong, but trying to throw it aside with “I tried to apologise” when that itself is an utter blatant lie doesn’t really raise any additional goodwill.

Entirely off-topic but what the hell is up with your icon? :bomb:

I know! I have no idea :weary:

I mean, yes, of course! :sweat_smile:

I forgive you your sins, young Gannash. Welcome to the best RP server going

There are big public hubs (more-so on Alliance) but I think having a good, active + thematic guild for your concept is always good for consistent

It fits into your playstyle to any extent you want, really - though 99% of people won’t bother being IC during instanced content (dungeons, bgs, etc). Just don’t OOC in spatial channels (/say, /yell, /emote) and you will be cool really

Usually both as out of character channels

Depends on the guild. Some RP guilds certainly enforce a minimum level of activity but it usually isn’t super harsh - just attending an event a week or w/e
