' Wrote:That made you fall into the "NO RP" type. "Why are you shooting me?" is a pretty dumb thing to start the RP off with. Why? Because he is a terrorist and he can. That's all the reason you need. But you think he's going to shoot you. And respond as if he's going to. So he does.
Try something else next time. Like...talk. Beg. Tell him about your pet budgie called by the same name as the phantom? Tell him that you need another pair of shorts.
The last thing you should do is run straight off. That is the "kill it" switch.
That illustrates my point perfectly. Why wouldn't you RP? Because you don't expect to get RP back. People seem, for some reason, to assume that it's the responsibility of the regular players to initiate the RP and provide the driving force for it, but I don't think that's true at all. The Phantoms have just as much responsibility as any other player to present RP (No, gaiz, 'RUN FOR YOUR LIIIIFE' or 'Tee hee! Wanna play?' and then shooting does not count as initiating RP unless the Terrorist ID is horrendously overvalued), and because of who they are (an organized group with a very, very exclusive ID), I think they have a greater responsibility than the average player to break the cycle.
