Hi guys, I'm Denzo, or Akito, as my RP name used to be. I haven't logged in in a very, very, very long time, as my registration date confirms. For a couple of days, GMOD RP seems to be on my mind and I recalled that I enjoyed to play on a server called [BB] a lot when I was younger, and that I had many friends there. I also recalled being admin on there in a far far begone time, but that isn't confirmed on the wiki at this time Unforntunately, I think I might have forgotten all of you. If anyone could update me a bit in how GMOD RP has changed over 2 or 3 years, and perhaps help me recalling some of my friends here, that would be great With kind regards, Akito
Hey, I can't remember you personally but welcome back. In short, RP08 is probably what you played, which eventually turned into Serious RP IIRC. That failed and then the shift was taken towards RP09, an updated RP08. That failed as well due to competition from other servers and some other stuff. In between that though the community shifted towards Deathrun and other gametypes and got a large following for quite a while on DR and TTT servers. Now a days the servers are pretty quiet bar scheduled events, although on random nights the numbers can get high on certain servers for some unknown reason. There's an RP server in the works but no beta testing yet so remains to be seen when we'll see that around! http://bbroleplay.co.uk/devblog/
Hey there, thanks for the warm welcome. I think I indeed lastly played RP08, but not much. I mostly remember the olden days when there wasn't much scripting, just common sense and your imagination, so I missed out on a lot it seems. Currently trying to join the RP server that's online now, but it's gonna take a while to download
Long time no see Akito, I do recall you being on the admin team however I think it was as a sub admin though. What Kaiden has said is pretty much correct. In 2008-end of 09 we went through various changes with Ben leaving, various drama and other things. We don't have a Roleplay server rolling at the moment but we do hope to change that in the near future. Roleplay as a whole has changed in the years you've been gone, it's no longer about some form of action packed combined with common sense. Instead you have your typical DarkRP server which is effectively buy money printer, sit on it until you have enough money and then buy a gun to kill people. Literally that's it. You also have "HL2RP" which is where you basically /me everything and fuck all ever happens. At the moment we're working on a new script which we aim to have 100% done by the summer which we hope will bring the experience of [BB]RP back in an updated and enjoyable form.
Once again, thanks for all the replies. I guess you'll see me appearing on one of the other BB servers sometime then
Welcome back, if you ever stop by our TTT server I'll be sure to throw a knife or two at you (In a nice way of course)! >:3 Check out this page to see if you can remember anyone from ye olde times ago. http://wikii.bbservers.co.uk/index.php/Community_Members
Well, I mostly remember Ben (ofcourse ), Biff Johnston, CrazyDanUK, Exuvae, Gene Hunt (i think), Kurdt Cobain, Maxy, Teddi, Tim Rogers and Waddy, and perhaps more, but I haven't got the greatest memory
I wouldn't say Biff has left, I would say hes waiting for RP, like many others. On another note, RP will never come out.
Sooner Garry fixes the dedicated servers and releases GM13 the sooner we can get the beta wrapped up and rolling.
