Noobies and RP in NY

[SevereTrinity]

Well, I for one am fed up off all the OORP in NY, but, if we just tell them once, and leave them too it, it will continue.

So, I suggest we 'reward' them, by, say, if one comes on and says:

'HI NEW YORK, I'M NEW HERE:D'

We go to Private Comms and say:

'Please, this is an RP server, if you go OOC, people don't like it.'

'BUT! We have a Reward System, whereas if you go a whole day and I don't see you go OOC, and RP at least a little bit, I'll give you 100k!'


This will encourage them to not go OOC, and it will reward them for doing it.

For the RPing people, 100k won't be muh of a hit, but it will help hose noobies by giving them their first Fighter or Freighter, and they will maybe start to enjoy the RP






Flames/Suggestions/Comments?

I think appropriate reward for ooRP should be fully armed lvl 29 Valkyrie with guns
firing on them.. But that's just my opinion..

I honestly applaud every "Hello everybody, I am new here can I get a hand or advice"

I really really really really really do.
Too bad that the answers he gets are "go mine silver" instead of read bit on forums and come back, you'll know what to do"

Actually, it would be cool that LSF and other officers on liberty (hey, they're in your yard, they're your problem:D) actually quiz theese guys on the rules and if they're correct they give them 200k to buy a first transport or a ship to do missions with.

LSF has future recruits, new york has busy people.

Maybe you should start by rewarding faction players that don't do it. Hard to enforce/promote this amongst new players when the old ones, who should know better, won't cooperate.

I always believed that to get Noobs to RP, they need to see everyone else around them RPing and having fun doing it.

It has to be rather verbal, so everyone can see the RP too. None of this "oh we RP in group chat stuff" that just doesn't work since noone outside the group can see the RP. It can be golden, but useless if noone else can see it.

I'd also think of making mini-rp-events for the noobs/low levels. Even if it is a simple scenario, like a mining company hiring escorts to shoot rocks in colorado, theres alot of RPing that can be done. Especially if you team up with the pirates and set up encounters.

I’ll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it’s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

Well, I just was fighting a Slipstream (Side Note: When Fighting: Slipstream + them having 600 ping + Missiles everywhere + Asteroid Field = VERY BAD LAG, AND VERY HARD FIGHT!), but I saw a newbie asking that, so I'm away to start to quiz them on the rules for their prize:D

But, on a side note, how does everyone like this Idea?

And would anyone want to help me organize a mini-event?

[MB52]

I've done a few before, and it was tough to get people to take part. However I'd be willing to help with planing/execution in a limited fashion, my internet sucks and can't do much.
