No, this isn't me getting salty about getting killed by an admin once- we're all friends here and I'm sure most of us can take a joke, especially during late night when nobody's rping.
I'm talking about RDMing people in the middle of the day, when people are on. Whether we're trying to RP or PAC. It's gotten to the point where it's a constant thing during passive, when people are actually trying to develop their characters. And it's really getting old.
Can we also please not crap on people for getting pissed off about it either? Because honestly, I think most of you guys constantly killing people and then giving them shit about it would be incredibly annoyed if people kept doing it to you. Especially if you weren't screwing around and were actually trying to RP. And like yeah I get it, we're all friends, we all take the piss out of each other every now and then, but there's a point where it needs to stop and it's constantly going beyond that point now.
Essentially I'm asking everyone- not just admins or players alone- to tone it down with the RDMs and general bad attitude when people who are RPing or trying to PAC don't want to be interrupted by people trying to kill them. Save it for when it's like 10 pm and nobody's on/passiving, at least.

I've had it happen to me a few times as well, especially whilst stating "I'm PACing". It's really bad, and I know we're all buttbuddies and we shit on eachother but I think shit like that can wait until nobody's on and RPing.

This is something I've been bad about in the past. Mostly because I'm immature and love playing around. I've been pretty chill about it lately but I'll tone it down none the less You guys make an excellent point, it's a little more than out of hand, it's a legitimate problem now.

I've done my fair share of killings. But I try not to do it at random. If I do get RDM'd I expect to get re-spawned and TP'd back in courtesy. But overall yeah it should be toned down, it kinda wears you down when it happens when things are trying to be done.

I think it's pretty obvious I'm the main culprit of this. Personally I try not to do it too much and I definitely try not to do it to people who are actually role playing, if it's done in that situation, I generally make sure it's a joke everyone's along with. I'm generally quite happy to do it when people tell me to stop, the only issue is there's been a couple situations in which I stop, and the person I'm doing it to goes off to RDM someone else or failrp. I'll attempt to tone it down though, but at least if I'm doing it, if you actually tell me to stop and then go to roleplay properly, I won't do shit.

It gets to the point where it just takes me out of the mood to roleplay. I stare at this, "YOU ARE DEAD" screen for 95% of my time on the server and it's just gotten so old. I'm totally fine when it's late night and we're minging around but when I just join and I'm dead for no reason it just leaves this sour taste in my mouth and totally takes me out of the mood to roleplay. The last part of Pundii's message is directed at me I suppose - yeah I do go off and kill the people who've already killed me numerous times since I'm just taken out of the mood and placed into this, "Why RP because I'm just going to get RDM'd." state since I'm some little teenage dirtbag who wants his bit of revenge.

While I've never really been rando shot since before the server started, I do hear shotguns going off half of the time I'm actually roleplaying. I'm not sure it's specifically one person doing all it at once, rather a few people who do it sparingly each and individually don't see that big of an issue with it. I've also seen Lemon complain about it in server OOC, and if this is happening to the point where it's bothering the roleplay of even one person? I'd say just tone it back with the gunning eachother down at least while people are around and roleplaying, and obviously never to do it at all to someone who's pacing or roleplaying. I'm not saying don't fuck around, I am the ultimate meme, just try to be more conscious of when you're doing it. Also P.S. if you do it to someone who is roleplaying, even if it's a nifty meme between you and them, it disrupts the roleplay of the people trying to interact with them. I remember a particular incident sitting at the mess hall table with a few people and the roleplay there just sort've dying because others flew over and shotgunned them while we were roleplaying and they never really returned.

My overall point agrees with this, I do kill you in particular too much, and I admit I do it too much - but it's pretty rare for you to, if ever actually tell me to stop. 95% of the time you make a meme out of it or when I jokingly say I will shoot you, you ask me or others to. I'm not saying you're entirely in the wrong, I don't want it to come across as that and I get all your point here, i'm sorry for being a cunt in that regard, but to a degree - you do provoke/bring it onto yourself. Overall, I think it's been fairly established that it's a bit much, everyone should/will tone it down from now on, and i'll start enforcing it better from others as well as myself. Though the big thing for me at least is, if this is happening to you, please do actually just say "Stop" - it's pretty rare for me to ever hear anyone actually say this in a situation like this.

I do tell you to stop although the way I say it can probably be taken as a joking manner w/e. I don't typically ask all that much since I don't wanna come off as a big baby about it and by the time I feel like just saying stop I'm too far into it to even care.

I think we can all agree that Lemon is a endangered species and should be treated as such. In all seriousness, it'll stop and this all resolved and that. I just woke up. Thread locked.
