Sorry, but frankly I'm the expert here, and I am outright saying these things do not qualify as RPs in my opinion. Silly things like that theead belong in the OTF and will stay here.

Ah well... I think this has dissolved into a matter of personal pride than anything else!

But they are ROLEPLAYING being in the MAFIA. It fits fine.

Sorry, but it says Role Playing, not Role Playing Games.

It seems most people outside the mafia want the thread closed...close it!

Ken you should be a Mod again 😐

This it not about grounds to close threads on, it's about grounds that keep threads like the one discussed alive rightfully. Now the Mob thing is in my opinion a funny parody on organised crime voted through humorist posts by sarcastic members here, and of course, a few of those that take it a tad to serious (but that will only lead to more entertaining confrontations).
Quite harmless as long as the contestants see it as a sarcastic game, and even more entertaining when one of them starts taking it serious.

Yes...NOW!

Ush is a good mod and the RP area is his domain though it's his decison!

And the description of Unhosted clearly says 'games', and the describing threads inside clearly say 'games', and thanks, but I'll decide what the content inside my areas is, seeing as I built them. I think I better know what belongs there than you.

That is not a Mafia RP. It's a bunch of people horsing around in the OTF posting weird sutff in mafia style. Not the same thing by a long long way.

Then how about an OTF Sub-Forum for OTF RP's?

I'm tired of seeing them in the OTF because the members of said threads get cocky, post mainly in those threads, and the rest of the OTF is left with few posts and Forum Games (which in themselves are repetitive and boring as well).

That would make most sence.

Alike any annoying aspect of this world, they thrive on attention. Outsmart them in their own game or ignore them to get rid of 'em

Ages. 😛 Dude, he's been the Gamemaster of the RP forums since before I started at KMC and I can guarantee he's been RP'ing in real life even longer.

I would gladly ignore them if Raz would bring back the Ignore Threads feature.

Well, if you want to ask for an OTF subthread, feel free to do so in the N&Q area. But I really don't see them as being much else than an extension of social threads, so that will be a tough sell.

There are a few points that the Mafia thread went more RP like, but on that basis I'd probably end up closing half the OTF. If it becomes decidedly and protractedly RP like, I will close it. I think it's more likely to get closed for encouraging bashing first, though.

Most Likely kills me, I've only been doing it 6 years now 😛 .

I just say 'cause me and My friend opened a MSN group Rping site called Drow City Rping and it became the most active RP in Canada on MSN groups, my friend hosts it now, I got bored of it, but things like this came up, and it was just classified in its own catagory.

But they would still be there and drain the OTF!
