Yes, I know. It was attempted, and it attracts little kids. I personally love DarkRP for the building aspect, connected with the economy aspect. I would most likely be active in that server quite a bit. In fact, I created this post with a bit of motivation from Marie's post a couple days ago:
Clearly rNd isn't dead, or no one would be in this current discussion talking. rNd isn't just the servers, it's the community as well. I personally believe we should consider branching off and finding other game modes to host as well. While Gmod is all fun and all, but more variety I think would definitely be a boost. Also I always add this in, even though I know it won't (can't) be considered currently, but I really do believe strongly that a dark RP server of some kind would heavily increase our population. People flock to those things like ants flock to a fallen piece of food. I know a lot of people would say "Oh but that attracts annoying children" let's be a little honest to ourselves guys, most gamemodes attract children, I mean hell I was 12 fucking years old when I started playing gmod. TTT has never really been one of my favorite gamemodes, so I personally couldn't care if it went down or not, but I do believe we could use a new gamemode/game that is sure to draw attention.
She puts it perfectly. We need these little kids.
