Alright, people. As we all know our community is slowly going away. So, here’s the deal:
Lurkers – please post something. Anything. GRP preferably. Don’t get your feelings hurt either. This community is based on trolling, and for christs sake you admitted you’re not easily offended. So, knock it off and do something. A lot of us are nicer than you’d expect.
Long standing community members – Introduce someone to the game. Even if they don’t like the game aspect, introduce them to the forums. You at least enjoy(ed) some aspect to hang around as long as you have. Bring more people. As it stands now, we’re past stagnating and are slowly dying.
Role-play enthusiasts- For gods sake, there’s a new forum just for you people. You’re safe there. Use it.
New community members – Be yourselves and stop immediately band wagoning or pretending this is some *chan somewhere. We don’t need anymore faux-trolls or “me too” posters. Relax. Also, stop using anon. No one likes that BS. Also, welcome to flamebate.
It’s not that hard. Just do your thing. Invite a friend or two to join us. |

What sort of friend would I be if I knowingly introduced someone to this game? Friends don’t let other friends play INCIT.

Was waiting on this response, or similar.
Seriously, you’re a good guy. You should have like minded friends. Don’t even show them INCIT. Let them find it on their own. |

You’d think these guys weren’t either introduced to it themselves or find enjoyable aspects of the game/community… |

Thank you, Catt. I started a character and am really enjoying it so far. In return, Have you tried Team Fortress 2 yet? Or Kingdom of Loathing? Those games are awesome too!
Maybe I’ll see you on flamebate sometime. Log in to see images! |

Food for thought: If you’ve purchased BP, you’ve given money to this game. Therefore you kind of have a vested interest in seeing it succeed. Lest your money be wasted. |

I’ve brought a few friends in, but I don’t know if they play anymore.
A word to the lurkers: The community tends to be a bit harsh, but you get used to it. Hell, I’ve only been here like 7 months or whatever, but as long as you’re not a complete fabulous person, you’ll be fine. Unless you’re seriously stupid. If that’s the case, then **** you. |

Just know that I’m always lurking. Smiling and nodding silently and not in a creepy way at all.

Despite your custom title, I enjoy your posts. Especially your old gimmick of posting literal “after thoughts”. |

At your point of lurkers and RP enthusiast.
If you want to get in on the ARP scene, examine some posts from the srsly klan. ( http://www.forumwarz.com/klans/profile/srsly )mainly Jem, Janie, and Escher. Don’t do exactly what they do, but just use it as a guideline on what kinda RP works. If people call your RP stupid? Don’t just stop and give up, keep at it.
And if I had friends that would actually be interested in a site like this, I’d invite em. But in reality, I only have about two friends I talk to often and neither of em would like this site very well. CrinkzPipe edited this message on 05/20/2010 12:00AM |

Food for thought: Telling the unwashed yob that you just happen know what’s good for them just makes you sound like a jerk.
I, too, would like to see more players and more action on the forums. Also, I’m gay. That said, less pronouncements from on high, more of literally anything else
I’ll start:
Has anyone ever done an “invite friends for bp” contest? It could even have a catchy name like “Cutco’s MLM Extravaganza – Make your idiot friends play fwz.” My two concerns would be 1) structuring it so it doesn’t turn into a fat **** and 2) if the mods would chop my e-balls off for making them deal with a ****load of illegal alts.

That wouldn’t go over to well. What guidelines would there have to be? What’s stopping your friend from leaving once you get the BP? |

First off, I freely admit that I’m a jerk. That should be a well known fact by now. If I care about something, I’m a male reproductive organ about it (Or to it. Whatever). Second, it’s another well known fact that pronouncements from on high are kind of my thing. It’s what I do.
I can’t get off my high horse because it’s super high and I’m acrophobic. And I can’t leave my ivory tower because then squatters might come in during my absence. And they have rights, apparently. |

I’m a big ****ing jerk too. Kinda par for the course around here. What I was saying was don’t tell or imply or even think of telling people that they SHOULD do anything. They get enough of that from they moms. |

I mean, unless your doing some RP gimmick that’s way ****ing over my head here and you’re enjoying trolling GD with a call to action that you’re intentionally sabotaging or some bizarre thing |
