How ever did you take that as a no? Your posting is getting seriously Lovecraftian and I canât fathom it
You can do what you want is an absolute âyesâ. If you want to make a guild that wants to enter conflict with my character, go right ahead. You donât even have to ask permission
You keep missing or choosing to ignore the fact none of this has been done without justification, itâs all the consequence of RP, not just randomly decided.
I can understand that people can be peeved at having their planned event interrupted by outsiders.
However, unless we hide ourselves in bubble-rp the IC world we create around our character is a fluid universe with multiple interactions and reactions to these interactions.
Rogmasha has been publically hunted by the Stygian Legion for a while now and has appropriately refrained from RPâing in large cities.
Furthermore, Rog took the opportunity to bring life to less-traveled areas making events via The Roaming Hub which is a great initiative.
However, a lot of what made those events extra interesting on paper at least was that there was an underlying element of danger by being close to a wanted criminal (alleged criminal yes, semantics aside the point stands).
When this danger then boils over and goes from being a hypothetical to a reality it really shouldnât take away from RP but add to it, in my humble opinion.
Instead of complaining that an event was ruined was it perhaps not simply altered? Surely, RP wasnât made impossible by the attack? Instead, I would imagine the involved characters were faced with interesting choices and in the wake of the attack left with even more thoughts and avenues of RP to pursue.
If you donât want to accept weâre grunts and canât enforce some laws, thatâs okay. My advice is just not to roleplay with my guild. I canât offer you much else.
Generally when it comes to âenforcing the lawâ in roleplay I have a policy of not throwing my weight around. When it comes to doing it I try to keep very close to what we see in the game. If someone turns around and says they donât like whatâs happening I am 100% okay with letting them go on their way; no harm done. If Rogmasha did not agree to the bounty / rebellion roleplay, I would be also be okay with it and not pursue the narrative.
Really, the only policy in Orgrimmar we have is not yelling about hating the warchief, or trying to kill people on the streets. A rule of thumb.
Well if another guild wants to RP grunts and challenge us then go ahead, that could be interesting infact, although I imagine all grunt legions are against murder and treason.
Youâre really invested in this fictional narrative of a situation that would likely never come up in real life and would be mediated between the parties if it did
A bridge to cross if it appears. If someone wanted to declare a bounty we made not valid, we would communicate with those involved in our roleplay if they wanted to pursue it. It entirely relies on what the person wants to do.
Well all RP is about co-operation. If Rogmasha didnât want to pursue the dissident-turned-wanted-fugitive-by-the-suppressors line of RP they didnât have to. Likewise, even though they did, they didnât have to accept to being captured.
Where criminal-guard RP often fail is in the matter of co-operating and doing the ole give-take. That doesnât seem to be a problem here, so I honestly fail to see the issue.
Edit: And in that line, for grunt/guard RP to be optimal one could assume that they (several guard companies or grunt legions etc) talked in between themselves rather than just pulling out their rulers to start measuring e-peepeeâs.
I mean itâs not like they are forcing people to acknowledge them as an authority? They put out a bounty, people who accept them in that capacity are free to act on it. Theyâre not making you do anything. Assuming Rogmasha wasnât forced/pressured into accepting their RP I donât really see what the issue is?
If you had two different grunt guilds which heard different sides of the story or whatever then that would⊠well, it would be quite an interesting scenario which would probably be resolved through RP? Like, whatâs the problem there?
A issue to be resolved when it appears. It seems like a very weird thing to argue back and forth about, when the people youâre using as examples are already in agreement. As as Pullo said, if this was to become a thing that takes place. Theyâd most likely talk about the issue, perhaps agree to not try to ruin for one another, but instead work together.
Why donât you make another guard guild and do all these hypothetical situations and find out for yourself what happens instead of postulating* on a forum?
(*by which I mean force-feed your fictional narrative to everyone who will listen despite counterarguments, because it is the cornerstone of why you are 100% correct and you will not accept it being disproved because otherwise you no longer have an argument with which to bludgeon people)
