In advance I'm sorry for my English, it's not my native language.
When I entered a server for the first time since a year or so I was just dissapointed. Tried it a few times more but didn't find any people that roleplayed. Wars, 500 gold or die & admins stopping you every time you kill. I had to explain an admin what's the difference between OOC and IC when I asked the guy how did he know my name and in the end got told it's not a HCRP server. What a nonsense.
I noticed that servers and their admins aren't friendly towards roleplaying, they just kill it with their rules and their maps. Current map "Normandy" or so hasn't got any good places to have some basic roleplay. Not sure if there's even a tavern or commoners town. It's made for faction wars and nothing else. I think the community has forgotten the real sense of PW. It's not all about being a knight, arming up, killing your faction enemies and taxing commoners - "serfs" grinding money to become a tincan. I think that all the scripts and addons are just helping players to avoid communication between each other.
Admins should try to introduce players to roleplay, estabilish it on their servers and upgrade it. It's just my opinion, but there's no reason to keep "RP" in your server name if you don't support the roleplay anyhow.
There are thousands of characters you can roleplay. Just give it a try once, make your own character in your mind and try to play it. It's really a lot of fun, like writing a story (not a good example, not for everyone) in-game. There are hundreds of things you can do.
My question is - is the roleplay gone, or it's just me being a pessimist?
