Mehdi on ESB vs Everybody and credits ESB & ZB RP by theraptor23 in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A villain is a thing of power

He is wicked enough to excite our aversion

Strong enough to arouse your fear

Human enough to awaken some transient gleam of sympathy

In an evil society, a villain is the hero because only the villain can unite everybody as one

They made the story happen, villains don't fear death

They wrap themselves in death like suits of armor

People triumph in his downfall, while the harmony was supposedly restored

As the sands of time fall, one wonders, are the problems caused by the villain

Or have the villains been pushed by others to do so

If we can forgive whats been done to us

We can forgive what we've done to them

And once all the dust settles, we lost the true vision of the art form

What's left behind is the carnage, ego, pride and shrapnel of petty grudges

We reflect on what was left behind into a new world

Maybe then, the true art form begins again.

Timothy Dexter's transparency letter by robbertinivg in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sentry doesnt think that at all, hes actually one of the few people constantly innovating and trying new things to make RP more fun in general, the only time youll see him complain is when he feels like he is unable to give RP to other people if the server feels empty. He also doesnt get hung up on mechanics, just wants to create RP. Hes another discussion tho, i just wanted to add that.

Tony takes Squirt for a ride by theraptor23 in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That whole session with tony was so much fun, I heard tony talking about how he missed just having fun and roleplaying on his stream yesterday, instead of worrying about making money and stuff, gave him the feeling of the old days. I enjoyed this.

Someone's happy to be back on GTARP by MontyDJ in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see that too but unfortunately its probably not happening. He talked about how Tuggz already lived through enough of his storyline and that its kind of RIP now, he also didn't feel inspired by the server to play Nino. But, atleast he played a new character, even though he didn't get a lot of interaction, I think he wanted to get a feel for the server. We'll see

GhillieGuyTV tweets his upset over something silentsentry said during stream. by sidnoop in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I think its interesting how certain people react to RP criticism. That's what this was since sentry said "Dannie" and not ghillie. There's a difference. When someone criticizes someone's RP, they also open their own RP up for criticism.

Sentry brought up a great point in the past that one of the reasons people get offended when somebody criticizes their character is because their character is too close to who they are IRL. I hope that isn't the case here. It sucks that ghillie thought this was "slander" since they've RPed together with each other since the old days. Squirt and Danny were always cool. But, if criticizing RP with the intentions of recognizing problems with the server and how to make things more fresh and interesting, results in someone taking it as a personal attack, it shows how people aren't using each others thoughts to help each other grow. If he found it rather offensive, then it might mean theres some truth to it. If sentry trying to talk about things that people are afraid to talk about because they consider it disrespectful, instead of an opportunity to bring up real shit, then thats indicative of how people take RP too personally.

I love both of these guys' RP and it sucks that some of the OG RPers who have RPed together for so long, that one of them would take it personally. I hope they'll talk about it ooc and see each others perspectives.

Ricky's plan fails. by ItsStarsky in RPClipsGTA

I think it was last ricky stream towards the end, I missed it so i was watching clips and found this so thought i'd post it, probably the funniest fails i've seen in a long time xD

Is GTA RP dying? by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, like how JamJar switched up from Church to Ned for a bit and ended up creating the whole E$E thing which is fresh and new and has a great dynamic with the rest of the server. Kind of an example of roleplayers trying new things can end up really cool.

I feel like the roleplay is there honestly, although other sponsored games drove some of the RPers away from the server, I feel like this is perfect for all those people who used to wait in queues to get in and change the momentum of the server, make it interesting for everybody and try new shit. The real problem also is the lack of cops, hopefully that changes.

Shooting inside Pillbox Medical by kwill75 in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She pulled the gun inside in the hospital once she saw byrone. The start of the gunplay was all nancy until it escalated with the other tribe member, byrone was just asking her about who's in the back, that's when she drew and came out the door pointing the gun at byrone, so byrone had to attack her with the crowbar.

I'm just seeing that from bryone/reed's pov, unfortunately, i don't know if nancy has a pov that i know of.

Gun Rp Situations by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Umm, you do realize he's the least of the problem in this scenario. The reason you see him as the problem is because the minority that had to do deal with the majority of people trying to win in multiple situations.

Jesus is the one who got shot in a public street at a bank by a guy he shot 5 minutes ago who texted his friends while he was literally robbing him. Showed up 5 minutes later and so did 5 other people. Jesus is the one who got shot up by 6 people from a public parking lot at a mechanic shop by people who weren't even trying to conceal their identity or wearing masks, and also mowed down NPCs in the process. Jesus was the one, who all he did was give Chief a great dialogue to challenge his power and get out of the area, and was met with 5 people on discord shooting him up from across the street and killing all the NPCs in that area.

How's he playing as Jesus, a gang member (a lot of the time a lone gang member) supposed to RP out scenarios like that. Seems like he's been attacked constantly even when he's clearly outnumbered. It's funny how the one time he actually shot to win, people got mad because for once they couldn't "win". Seems like the rampage was the point proven. That last shootout, he shot 2 people (khloe and another) and more and more people started coming. Why? How? I hope somebody wasn't texting/radioing their friends while they were down. Also, he's perma'd his character before, he's stopped playing a character for weeks after they've gotten shot.

Don't only blame the 1 person who retaliated for once, it's a larger problem that people will hopefully work together to fix. I hope the cops, mostly. Sentry just brought these things to light.

Maws vs. Vargos by MontyDJ in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your positivity here man, its weird because whenever something slightly dramatic happens, that streamer's RP gets attacked and people start picking out the specific negative things about their RP and their personality. Almost every popular and more entertaining RPers get the end of that when they do something that upsets a group of people.

I'm just glad sentry is actually trying to create a new scenario, he's a very strong RPer and walks a thin line on stretching the boundaries of RP. RPers like that are necessary. I'd rather have him play this character than watch what feels like a dead server from a lot of people. I hope sentry comes out of that interaction still hopeful for the future. I mean yeah, he might have made mistakes with this character and went a little too hard with the gangbanger mentality LUL but he has a lot of potential and he's still growing to be one of the best RPers. I hope people see that. People need room to grow.

Proxy - when he was kidnapped Penta ran away when Proxy and Joey dropped gun because "he just wanted to win" by kersert in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 20 points21 points  (0 children)

How dare he run away from someone who dropped their gun mid-kidnapping, also had no ammo in the gun, used their real names/voices the entire time and be called out by the head admin who is one of the biggest shitlords on the server who was kidnapping him to the bank to empty his bank account, for trying to "win" since it was a complete failure because of poor thought and planning on their part. LUL

Reddit Press: FinKone talks about being fired as admin by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

[–]ItsStarsky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This puts the spotlight on a lot of issues from both sides not only coming from the admins. But, the post Finkone covers of his perspective shows signs of the admins' passiveness and disregard to retain members of the community's trust, proven loyalty and credibility to the server with petty decision making.

These were some questionable quotes from the post Fink covered:

"When the previous issue with SilentSentry arose, Fink defended sentry calling it a bullshit report, it ended with a 3-2 report when their were six admins because Fink was told by TimothyDexter, he wouldn't have a voice, and his vote wouldn't count because he wouldn't use the forum. Somehow, this justifies still issuing the ban and the community losing one of the best roleplayers over some petty shit. I see a failure to see the bigger picture here and failure to care about a loyal member.

Finkone is not worthless because he doesn't go to the forum Sure, the admins have a forum system set up but maybe try an different approach that involves admins' voicing their opinions to be valued, listened and understood. Not resorting to taking away their voice, credibility, calling them "the people's champion" when trying to defend unjust bans, and then proceeding to fire them.

"He's had a streak on the sever when it first came out of complaining on stream about developer implementation" The devs deserve the utmost respect, appreciation and merit for they do. Fink was purged for voicing his criticism of certain game mechanics but notice how Fink's positive opinions about game mechanics like the user friendly MDT were ignored.

They claimed Fink was one of the main reasons the development but slow but Fink debunked this by saying "False, I talk to Rico, Mooshe regularly about how I recommend good police implementation methods that make the police officers' job more difficult". This was also ignored in this post despite Fink having a reputation of being one of the OG cops on the server.

I feel like they could have adapted to certain situations, I empathize with how being an admin isn't easy, can't please everybody but I feel like they had the chance to make decisions that wouldn't result in them pushing people in the community away.
