1,000,000,000 times this.
This is the EXACT reason why I despise DarkRP, "Donate for admin!" "Donate $5 to get a free hat to use exclusively on DarkRP!" "Donate $100 to help me get a new computer!" And I swear to fuck I am not joking about this, I actually saw this quote on a server I joined a while back in Gmod 12: "Donate $1000 to meet the owner in real life!"
Are you that desperate for money? Really, I know it's rough for 'Merica and some other countries, but relying on other peoples money for selfish desires? Pisses me off.

If they were desperate for money in the first place, why would they bother spending $25 a month on a gmod server instead of straightening out their life priorities?

I always felt our server could do DarkRP better. Unfortunately, the gamemode has too many exploits, and isn't really being considered. DarkRP draws so many people (maybe not always the best people, but people none the less) and I always found it to be very fun. I can only imagine how we'd make it work, especially without all the donation bullshit.

Well to me the whole point of Any RP is to troll basically I go into peoples buidlings kill them with a gun take there money die and restart.

one time I got elected into metro police or whatever it is and I started going into gangster territories and fucking people up it was really fun.

But yeah Dark RP now day's is just broken, Corrupt, and not fun to play 0/10.

Honestly most GMOD Servers for any kind of game always have spam things asking for donations.

I remember telling people on TS3 about the server I went on to one day out of boredom. Where if you donated money, you would get more credits as D/T. You would Light Saber which killed people like in 2 hits. You would get a name that would flash raindbow colors on the tab button (Which fucked up knowing who was a D kinda... or knowing who the fuck your T buddies were.)

This is one of the few servers that don't nag you to death for donating or give you special privileges.

One of things I love about the server.

I played on a 24/7 Minecraft TTT server,and it was just horrible.
They suck at catching rule breakers,the admins/vips are always at eachothers throats,random demotions,RDM going on 24/7

needless to say i had a good laugh

I went to a TTT server that was SUPER vanilla. Only thing custom was the motd showing rules and messages once in a while about their website and how to votekick/ban. Though, the RDM fest was off the roof until an admin came.

Here's what I now think. RP is absolute crap where the rules are always different and loopholes are instantly found. A stinking pile of shit which makes you feel more like a slave than anything in the child-ran servers. Laggy with prop spammers and terribly made maps which have only gotten worse since the big update. Just about every RP map I've played has that same cookie-cutter design and ridiculous doors/elevators. Can't forget how the other players/admins don't have the ability to listen to what you say and constantly threaten to ban you for playing properly, though that's impossible when you play with others who want to screw around.

I used to fuck around and team with my mates on huge servers, stealing buses and singing songs while we went on RDM sprees. Admins had a laugh so we didn't really get banned. Now because that's gone RP isn't fun in any way now.

I used to love DarkRP.  I loved doing stuff like building games and casinos with wiremod.  However, all that's kinda hard to do with every tool I need is restricted.  I don't understand why the servers just allow the tools and permaban anyone who abuses them.  Otherwise, I would play a bit more DarkRP.

That is where our darkrp server could be different, we could have no restricted tools but strict rules and strict vip/admin supervision when using or abusing the tools.

rnd has had a few RP servers in the past and none went well.

From what I've experienced with RP servers, they are only good for minging/exploiting and getting a laugh out from pissing people off.

Post by: Samo on July 26, 2013, 08:25:32 PM
Sorry guys. I really don't think it'll work. There's already thousands of RP servers around and it'll need constant maintenance, admin monitoring and a map that isn't rp_downtown to do some good. Though even if a server was to be made it would be played mostly by our VIPs/Admins for maybe a few weeks until they decide to go back to Lol. Despite your thoughts of "Oh we're going to do this properly" and "I won't abandon the server once everyone else does" I really doubt it's going to be worth the effort.

Restrictions are just part of the gamemode, but you should understand that servers can be quite costly to run, and donations can really help out with that.

Some charge more than they should though.  It's just a matter of finding the right server.

It's just the ones were they solely run off of donations and have no supportive income to back it up in case things take a turn for the worse. That's where they go full on jew mode, strip any remotely useful tool and strip any useful feature in order to expect people to donate. Which in this case, it's far beyond me how server owners manage to pull that.

That was where i'd go if TTT and ZS were crowded with people.
It was fun talking to other players via Global Chat too...

I had totally forgotten about global chat. Unless coolz has some type of conflicting stuff with the global chat, why dont we bring it back? Yeah, we only have 3 servers, but it would still be nice to have.
