a lots a posts = Rps go some where for once. Your English is very clear. More importantly, lots of posts = more activity on site = more people might join? Or maybe not.

Actually, you if you follow the "moar posts prinsiphull" and churn out 12 000 word posts 24/7 following the adventures of the merry men in the Twilight Zone, people certainly won't like it. If you want to get a broader audience, you ought to start off fresh.
I've been absent for like, two and a half months and I can't be arsed to read through the RP since it's mostly over 9k posts which are more akin to the works of a hyped-up fanfiction crossover "artist" than S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
And I should know - I participated in the RP as well.

You don't know because you weren't nearly as much a part of the RP as you would have liked.
Mostly because half of your characters never really made it off the ground, although they do make for very overdone and defiant fodder that tended to throw wrenches in the collective plots at the most opportune moments. (cue BAAAAAAAAAAANE, Dimitri, and Khan)
You're right in one regard however. People almost certainly won't be joining the RP due to its exclusivity at this point, which makes it all the more awesome in a lot of ways (much like Recon on ZW).
Otherwise, RGAR SKAOS broski. If you want to start anew, go to EotN. The ideas running amok around here aren't dying out anytime soon.

Oh, you want to keep the RP this way? Fine by me. It's not like I care that much, I was only suggesting something here. I don't feel like the RP is awesome, but I most certainly ain't reforming it.
Aanywho, about my characters-You're right. However, the only deal with the characters you mentioned was that I never got to develop them fully. Dimitri was never really anything more than a washed-up stalker whose brainwashing went wrong and he started to think that he was a Freedom leader and everything. Even the so-called "wolf tattoo" was nothing more than, I'unno, dermatitis or something. I was going to expand on that in a trip to Pripyat, but hay, that trip never took place because we had to follow Seth and Lutiy for some obscure reason.
What's next...Oh, Bane? Oh, yeah, didn't you see the part about me going to split them up immediately after the entire Hospital thing? Now, I don't see how that would make them the "ultra brutal faction I meant them to be" . You made Lutiy a badass by telling everyone that he was a badass. I don't mean to offend anyone, but why in the blazes are you buying this shite?
Oh, Khan...Khan, old Khan. Why did I put in Khan again? I'unno. I felt like it. I saw that the RP was going to hell in a hand basket and that anyone could get out with pretty much anything, so I decided to make him. Besides, it's not like he participated much in anything.
Bah, that got out.

You made Lutiy a badass by telling everyone that he was a badass. I don't mean to offend anyone, but why in the blazes are you buying this shite? The first sentence is true, the rest is horseshit man, horseshit. If you recall, Lutiy was first made as a foil, not an integral 'player' character to be developed (Adder, Victor, Sigbrand, Maginot, Balalaika, Ferret, i.e. - the faces that actually make up the personality of the RP). He developed a shitload of other people's characters in the RP by trolling alone, which is something none of your characters appeared to be designed to do. Once he did that, and our 'real' characters were fleshed out fully enough from the faceless rookies they had entered the Zone as, I killed him off. Now I only use him as a central character in Recon for fun. And anyone can tell you that it's the most epic thread the ZSG ever came up with.

And I'm very proud of you etc. It is my opinion (and probably my opinion alone, since disagreeing with the main admin on this site has become a taboo or something) that the first RP (which started off well) soon turned into hunting your characters for no apparent reason. Also, I don't see a single thing which Lutiy did that could have been considered "trololoing". If by that you mean the betrayal-in my world, at least, that's not trololoing. Also, that "flashing out your characters" thing sounds like something excreted by an obese bovine. I never intended to wave my characters' willies around because I never intended to be the big cheese of the RP. Also, I fail to see the logic in "less members=AWSUM ARPEE". Recon is, in my eyes, nothing more than a mess. Now, please, let's not delve into this further, you can't change my views, I can't change yours, let's go back off topic, please?

No, but we were more than two posts on-topic and this desperately needed a SKEWING

Basil, you've been whining ever since you came to this site. Bah! I'm not getting involved in this.
