IC/OOC Meet and Greet

Okay Virtue, I've decided to take action. I see these threads about old (and new) players asking for a new breed of RP, a breed harkening back to the glory days of Virtue before the AE baby fallout and the mass of people flocking to CO and returning so disappointed they quit shortly after.

(The previous paragraph is not up for debate, so don't correct me. Demonstrative purposes only.)

I'm organizing an IC/OOC meet and greet this Saturday at 6PM PST/7PM MST/8PM CST/9PM EST.

So here's the breakdown:

Quote:
Virtue IC/OOC Meet and Greet

Where: The Midnighter Club, Main Meeting Room (the one with the round table)

When: July 30th, 6PM PST/7PM MST/8PM CST/9PM EST.

Why: Because myself and other like-minded RPers are yearning for some good, quality RP.
Things/concepts the meeting can do without:
  • Godmoding.
  • Characters that think they're part of the lore (Lord Recluse's son, the love child of Statesman and Ms. Liberty (ew), The Crey Doctor who worked on Synapse, etc.)
  • Generic Barskank Catgirls (obligatory catgirl joke complete).
  • A need to argue.
  • A bad attitude.
  • Netspeak.
  • Wangst.
  • Emo garbage.

Additional Information:

I figure for the sake of thoroughness and the desires of each RPer, we can come with whatever toon we want to bring. We'll introduce ourselves OOC first, and then use our RP skillz to cobble together reasons for all of these multidimensional characters to meet in a place such as the Midnighter Club. Summons, a letter, a message rune, a premonition, you get the idea.

After the OOC and other pleasantries, players can feel free to swap to other characters. This allows attendees to show off their arsenal of RP characters at their own discretion. I know I'll be swapping quite a bit.

So that said, mark your calendars and please feel free to reply to this thread to confirm your attendance!

Might wanna add the day to the "When" area on your table, just to make it easier.

And if RL doesn't toss something my way, I'll try to make it. Sounds like a good way to muster up some non-D RP and strengthen the community.

I think I'll make an appearance. Would be nice to meet up and network with some RP'ers.

Well, I guess that leaves Ascendant out, as he is mentioned in game by NPCs. I know what you mean by this just eh way it is worded, anyone who wants their character to be in game continuity, need not apply.

Will you be policing this for everyone?


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

What do you mean? The 'When' is right up there below 'Where.'

There's a difference between trying to be a part of the lore and actually being part of the lore. :P

I can't tell if you're being snarky or not so I'll answer honestly: From the general tones of the "Looking for RP" posts we've seen popping up here on Virtue lately, I think these things will police themselves. They may not even be a problem. The overall feel of these need-for-RP posts was that people were sick of godmoding, 'holier than thou' argument-based characters, angsty wangsty teens, emo darkity-darks, terrible "I am canon" concepts and other aforementioned wing-dang-diddly.

Yes, but the "When" section of the table only lists the times, not the date (which is mentioned in the section above the table). I believe he was just suggesting that consolidating the information would be helpful.

I just mean that a lot of this is subjective. Sure, there will be some trolls who deliberately grief, but a lot of what you've laid out comes down to personal preference and playstyle. Different people have different definitions of what does and does not constitute what you've identified.

I wonder about the possibilities of A.I. becoming part of the games lore...


The horror.

I don't think the definitions are very subjective, but anyone who's worried about crossing the line should attend at any rate, then ask if it's appropriate. There's a wide line between being sad that you're family was killed and being upset that your father, Lucifer von Dark Morningstar, doesn't love you.

Huh. Can't say I've heard of them. Well, except VoodooGirl. Can't remember where though.

I was under the assumption that I was universally disliked on this server. Weird, I need to fix that.

I'll be there, by the way.

Hello everyone,

I'd like to take a moment and ask you to keep this thread on topic. Name-calling, as well as gratuitously insulting uninvolved players, is not appropriate, neither to this thread, nor to the forums.

Thank you,

Midnighter's, huh? The vendor at the round table is a popular one, but we'll see! Ricki will be there to start and help represent the Entropy Legion, we'll also see if Flamethrower, Komet, and Tide can make an appearance as well.
