Thereās a lot of backlash towards players that arenāt there for the right reason, and AD forums(most active RP realm) are filled with anti-OOC threads usually, or comments.
So hear me out:
No Achievements will be a immediate bummer for any non RPāer and will sort of force them to go on a PvE/PvP server. And you know what, itās justified.
This is to maintain what a actual RP server should be am i right? Just RPāers?
I can see that it would deter non RP players from rolling on realms like AD to milk the benefits of not having CRZ or all the advantages of WM on without any of the risks as Alliance.
I can also imagine some RP players like their achievements.
Achievements arenāt the root of the problem here.
Best solutions imo would be what Tehya said, have Blizz actually enforce the rp rules, and offer free realm transfers from Argent Dawn to other servers, one-way.
That way the stranded OOCāer can go to a server more suited to their tastes without having to reach into their pockets to move their toons, and the ones determined to troll rp would be weeded out quickly if the RP rules were enforced more actively.
If you want a completely dead realm, yeah, sure. Youāll have a bunch of people who do nothing else than RP a few hours when they get home, and thatās it. Dead for the rest of the day.
If weāre in dreamy territory, there are so many better ways to improve the RP quality on RP realms than removing content RPers enjoy just as well. Like - as said above before - enforcing RP rules.
I feel it may be a bit cutting off the nose to spite the face. Not all Rpers just rp and the achievements offer some incentives for others with rewards such as mounts, titles, toys and the like. Plenty of rpers that like playing the game too so it punishes them to get rid of non rpers. The issue is not that there are non rpers but that there are those that go against the rules or harass rpers. I agree that GMs being around to enforce these is a better alternative since enforcing their own rules should be a given anyway.
is this some sub-80 iq attempt at making RPers look like we want OOCers/not RP-related content on the server or admit that we dont stricly, 100% rp all the time
Why is that a reply to me? I never said that rpāers only rp? And free realm transfers arenāt exactly -forcing- them off the server, right? Itās more an incentive.
I should add that I am personally not -that- fussed by the presence of non-roleplayers provided that they behave, but they shouldnāt be the majority.
