Using the Matrix as an example... 52 pages since December isn't "much posts"? There's always a bunch of new posts every day; that argument is invalid on the grounds of you not knowing what the heck you're talking about. And mere length or number of posts is a rather stupid way to judge relative "greatness" anyway.

Actually, we took the liberty of exploring Unhosted again last night. Rather amusing, for me at least. More on that in a bit...

I have! It was yours actually. Maybe not literally "His life sucked" but parts boil down to that anyway.

More complex characters? So female Inuyasha ripoffs and badly played Ed Elrics are more complex than our original Dark Jedi, or our Matrix rebels? Right, you keep living in that dream world.

Of course, you're a godmodder yourself, so I shouldn't have expected you to recognize it in others. Sorry, I apologize.

"the chracters are what cause a stir in the story with out any confusions." I'm confused by that "sentence."

The plot is not some set in stone "THIS MUST HAPPEN EXACTLY THIS WAY" vehicle for the GM to do exactly as he wants. The plot is like a wide road: you can walk on whatever part of it you want, but it's still the same road going in the same direction. We have more of a problem with Ush leaving us clueless at to what to do next than with him forcing us to do something.

And just so you know, oftentimes we do become a part of the plot. For the Star Wars games, my created species was given a link to the main antogonists by the GM. In Matrix right now, Zink's Hephaestus is practically the main character of the story.

That's what the Rules are for. No game should have to deal with godmodders or cheaters, people should know beforehand that that sort of behavior isn't allowed.

The closed threads in Hosted are what happens when people want to play like Unhosted. It's purging the Hosted boards of unprofessional RPs.

Which is a testament to how good Ush's games are. Sure, people could go off and play other games, but they don't because they know they'd rather wait to play an Ush game.

If the length does not matter, then why were you boasting about how long your games were? That's contradiction, and makes you look very foolish indeed.

and After the second part when I quit talking about matrix, I was talking about other hosted RP's that were not as good. The Ush and Matrix games a the best excluding the ones that are dead at the moment. I guess you are misunderstanding once again and calling the Unhosted bad. Which is pretty stupid actually.

Actually, it is still amusing how you all mistunderstand the Unhosted RP.

I said that? I doubt it strongly. I mean, yes my chracter has so many unlucky things going on through his life but thats part of my original story. Why would you just judge someones chracter if it is original .My chracter came out of nowhere but only out of my ideas. I have been RPing Maybe more longer than you and I have been thinking of a main character. Very weak just talking about the negatives of it. Plus, the story does make sence.

I think youre misusing the word Complex with something else. Complex is really a round chracter, a chracter with more than one action or feeling. So please, use it the right way. That is why I put "round".

😆 😆 😆 ME a godmodder? Really, you are one of the three people who has ever called me that. Really, I would like to debate with you on that. You surely have no idea. At all. And you expect me to be shredded if you hardly know.

"the chracters are what cause a stir in the story by using there own story. And it is all done with out confusion since we know what we are doing"

Better?

You shouldnt take the stuff from Ush as a problem at all. You should all just keep on going and Rping. Simple as that. And Ive checked out the hosted. It is mostly known with RP titles like "Ush's Blah Blah" "Spike's Blah Blah", Ect. Thats what really killed it Misreably. The reason why is that the RP's are based on what the Creater wants it to be. Adding your name in seems pretty bad, from MY POINT OF VIEW, but yes you can try the RP. I checked it out. I did not like it. I would not have a problem Rping there it is just that, I will really be bored with it all. Im better with my characters. RP = Ment to be Fun.....Period.

Ok, and? (Sorry, Im not much of a star wars or Matrix Fan or have no knowledge of eighter.))

I hate repeating myself but I said NEw Rpers, therefore thety would know shit about the rules. IT happens alot of times.

But as you just said, theres rules to READ so the So called "Newcomer" Shouldve read were they posted. I guess they decided to go into the hosted RPG. so its none's fault but the Newcomer. PEriod. Unproffessional? If you are really gonna have the nerve to call every one in the Unhosted Unprfessional then you sir really shouldnt be arguing with me. I can right now give you alot of posts that show good rping....

And? Only the hosted cares but we dont because we are playing games. Once an RP is approved, we go on and make it. Because when we said "Who would want to join my RP", alot of people would say "I Join" And then while you wait for approval, you set up how you will make an introduction to your RP. Then, you will be ready as it receives permission. DOnt you know anything? 😬

I Did not contradict myself there. You see, its like a book and the story is suppose to be VERY VERY long until the end. I had my RP with many events going on by order. First came the threat as we prepared, then It did come, then We went on to hell to fight Satan and his henchmen, then we went on to go and defeat every Villain that ressurected. After all that, we all RPed amongst ourselves now theat the Plot is over. Then I ended it. And I received many RPers, posts, and chracters making that RP one of the best. PERIOD!

i dont give a dam about eny of this rp crap but the dam anime forum has gone dead there are about five people who browse it used to be alot more than that rows of unread posts it was great now theres about five topics ever replied in my god this sux a$$

To be quite honest, the forums seem different, empty in fact.
Currently there are only 100 active members, a number which seems odd considering there used to be upwards of 500.
Maybe it's just me having been away for so long, but I'm still amazed. [/B]

Jacope, I took a look at your RP last night, and there is nothing original about your character at all. It's nothing but an overpowered anime character ripoff.

As are, well, pretty much every other character in it I've seen so far.

No depth, no complexity, and no originality or creativity. Not to mention rife with cliches.

Hosted is not dead. Hosted is far from dead. The only reason there's any slowness in it is because most of us RPing there are older and have responsibilities and real-life things to worry about. You know why most games in there are titled with someone's name? Because it's got one person clearly running the game. They're in charge. They made it. It's their game. They're the ones putting the effort into designing the game, making the rules, coming up with a plot, and keeping it running. And it's not an easy job, at all.

Plus I can't really see how that could have killed it as that's how it's always been, anyway. Not that you'd know.

I'll also state that, judging by my recent perusings of the Unhosted forum, the quality of it has dropped significantly since I RPed in there two years ago. Quantity hasn't. Quality, however, has.

For that matter, as you have claimed to have RPed longer than us...how long have you been RPing?

Oh, and might want to take a look at the KMC forum rules, by the way. Advertising other forums is spam and against the rules.

What is exactly the point of this thread? Actually, I don`t see much diffrence between Hosted and Unhosted games- most of them seem bland, and Ushgarak`s games are the only ones that have real rules, as well as strong Gamemaster who is in firm control of the game. If you want to see more games like Ush`s check sites like rpg.net. KMC is mostly immature in regards to role-playing, at least in my opinion. Ush`s games being an exception.

Frankly, best role-playing games are usually the ones you play in real life, with you and your friends sittiing at the table. It is harder to roleplay online, though often more convenient.

Edit: I didn`t want to insult some people`s preferences- I am just not a big fan of completely free-form roleplaying.

The initial purpose of this thread was me wanting to state how empty I though KMC was. I made a comment about the role playing forums, and it took off from there.
