How so? People who post in RPOT act the exact same as they do in RP.

.It encourages people to use existing properties.
Elaborate please?

.It encourages short RPs that result in little RPing.
RPOT has been distinguished as an RP forum mainly for short RPs and character interaction, not full-out 20 page serious RPing.

.It encourages rivarly between RPOT and OT.
I haven't seen one "rpot sux ot is betar" thread in weeks. I'd say the 'rivalry' is dead except for the people who try to force some sort of conflict.

.RP is awesomer.
RP and RPOT have completely different functions as forums.

.RP would be revived if RPOT was gone.
RP would be revived if more people made their own plots there, not if RPOT was completely removed.

.It turned all the mods into OT hatin' weeaboos.
The mods are "OT hatin' weeaboos" because people automatically assume that they are just because they post in RPOT.

Depends on your tastes.

Well if there was any serious RPing at all, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal.

BUT BECAUSE EVERYONE IS *crag* LAZY AND GOES TO RPOT I CANT START A BIG RP

This isn't detailed enough, but I agree. (Except about popcorn, that's not funny.) We should get rid of RPOT.

Just to play Devil's Advocate, I believe OT encourages the RPOT/OT war far more than RPOT.

To be honest, most of those are your own personal opinion.

Or, if you think they're facts, do show some proof, would you?

Anyway, RPOT is fine as it is. If it gets deleted, it's obviously going to annoy countless people, and possibly cause people to leave.

Or... you're just pissed off at RPOT and think we're all LOL WEEABOOS.

RP IS active. More so than it has been for the past months. Have you even tried to start that RP of yours? =\

It's supposed to be laid-back and casual RPing, of course people are going to encourage people to be "lazy".[/b]

[color=orange]-what Ocelot said-


.It encourages short RPs that result in little RPing.
That's the purpose of RPOT. Short, casual, simple RPs. Like training RPs. RPOT is just a place where our characters can meet, interact, introduce themselves, and just have random little "adventures", not topics that are meant to go on for 10+ pages. There are a lot of long RPs in RPOT, but a lot of those belong in RP.

.It encourages rivarly between RPOT and OT.
Aren't both sides to blame for that? If everyone just shut up and never discussed RPOT in OT or vice versa {although, the rivalry's died down quite a bit}, we wouldn't have this problem, now would we? In all honesty; I wouldn't give a *crag* if both RPOT and OT got nuke'd or something.

.RP is awesomer.
i no rite

.RP would be revived if RPOT was gone.
True, but people would probably flood RP with "casual" topics, or complain about it.
I'll probably be making more plots {that don't involve the Oress plot, mind you} in RP in the future...I already have three different ideas for plots.


.It turned all the mods into OT hatin' weeaboos.
I don't think RPOT's to blame for that one...

.RP is awesomer.

.I wish I had some popcorn right now.
Ew, I hate popcorn.

.Wait...there is some in the pantry.
That's nice.

.Son of a bitch, I could make popcorn...RIGHT NOW.
Then do it.

.RPOT isn't as cool as RP.
i no rite

.I'm gonna go eat some popcorn.

Well, I think that mods should start enforcing the rule that plots belong in RP.

The problem with RPOT is that it was supposed to be a place of craziness where anything could happen, but, over time, it changed in to something else. I've noticed that alot of threads tend to be continuations of events from other threads, so something extremely unusual or crazy doesn't happen very often- if it does, it must be started by an established alt that people know about or have seen often.

You see, it's hard to uphold the plot rule, because RPOT has become a giant plot itself. I'd like to see things change, but I doubt they will.

What saddens me is nobody will ever know my characters' back story. Nobody will ever know what their personalities are like. Because nobody cared.

That's the problem. Everyone is so stuck up in this *crag* continuity that nothing new can ever happen. If we just had RP that would never happen, because each plot would be constrained to a single topic.

I don't think people realize that RP doesn't have to be UBER SERIOUS, and if they would try it they would like it.

AND THEN WE CAN BURN RPOT TO THE GROUND AND THE LAND WILL PROSPER
