• Good/least terrible RP server?

Been playing mostly TTT ever since I got GMod and apparently RP is really fun. The only experience I have with RP is in HL2: DM and there everyone was just killing each other with no regards to actually RPing. Oh yeah, post a link to the rules of said server/general RP rules if you can

[QUOTE=Grandsatsuma]skepping.co.cc[/QUOTE] Wow, good job! Promoting your own server with no facts! Wow! Seriously. To be honest, there aren't many [i]proper[/i] RP servers. Like, literally most of them are DarkRP or a DarkRP rename. PERP had it's good time, it's now mostly a dramafest. I really don't know what to suggest, but I heard that STALKER RP should be pretty good, if the playerbase wants to live into it.

I'm gonna try out the US gangwars RP since it's currently the only with more than 1 post endorsing it.
Gangwars roleplay... Kind of uhh... How do I put this... Not roleplay? LightOfDarkness, are you looking for actual roleplay or DarkDM?

Garry's Mod roleplay is terrible. Always. No exceptions. There may be varying levels of terrible [from 'bad' to 'rotting asshole'] but they're all terrible. If you're actually looking for halfway coherent stories or plots, try playing dungeons and dragons, or doing some freeform text roleplaying. But by the Evening Glory, do not look for good roleplay in Garry's Mod.

And I won't advertise my server like a douche. Are you looking for a zombie apocalypse theme, HL2 theme or a Fallout sort of theme?
Zombie apocalypse sounds right up my alley, I haven't explored HL2 much and I have little knowledge about Fallout So is it Left 4 Dead kinda zombies or Night of the Living Dead zombies?
Catalyst-Gaming's Serious HL2 RP servers are pretty good for RPing. It's pretty boring though, mostly passive RP. However the Civil Protection there is actually structured and pretty professional, even though they're mostly douchebags. So as far as actual serious RP goes, most of the time that's my favorite server. EDIT: CP are douchebags because that's kinda in their job description. Forgot to mention.
[QUOTE=LightOfDarkness;31756534]Zombie apocalypse sounds right up my alley, I haven't explored HL2 much and I have little knowledge about Fallout So is it Left 4 Dead kinda zombies or Night of the Living Dead zombies?[/QUOTE] The script is based off of L4D, most follow it that way too... Not how I like it exactly. Nonetheless, I can get you some IP's and give you some general knowledge about the servers. Genesis Roleplay: 89.145.94.250:27015 (Not exactly zombie roleplay, more like mutant roleplay. Not that there is a difference in my eyes lol. From what I can tell they seem to be pretty good, people give them good reviews anyway. If you're looking for good roleplay, I guess you could go there, though I haven't played it enough to find out if the admins are any better than any other large community I've been with.) MachoGaming: (It's a terrible "community" in my opinion. The admins are pretty much the most closed-minded people that you can meet and if you say one thing wrong to them they get pissed. I'll show proof of this if FP let's me. In any case, they're staff is [I]very[/I] unproffesional and I was in fact once a super admin there, I re-joined one day for shits and giggles to find out I was permabanned with the reason "Nope". The only thing these guys are good for is the occasional roleplay you do get.) I would post more but I can't find any at the moment. Out of all of them those however, I suggest Genesis. At least you have a chance at finding a good administration and some good roleplay. Also, the proof to show that MachoGaming's staff is incredibly terrible (just in case anyone wants it): [url]http://pastebin.com/Y2FezSVH[/url] Edit: Shit, I forgot the IP to MachoGaming. Oh well, the only thing they were good for was playerbase.
Taco and Banana, although the player base tends to be snobbish. And cybering.. cybering everywhere.

Hostell Roleplay is an HL2RP server, normally has 20+ players on during the day. Bit heavy on the combine oppression, but a very good server, no less. [URL="http://www.forum.hostellroleplay.net"]http://www.forum.hostellroleplay.net[/URL] 109.169.29.188:27015

The latest and greatest RP is FearlessRP FearlessRP is a roleplay server and forum community with friendly admins and a 50 slot primary, EvoCity1 ssemi serious RP server. This server is mainly full with the members of the community so you will have to be there at the right time to get in, I HIGHLY advise you come here because whether you are an RP newbie or an expert, you will have a fun time. Oh I forgot to mention, there are over 20 ORIGINAL, serious jobs, 15 or so car models and countless different weapons and equipment. We run a custom CityRP gamemode scripted by SoulRipper, the founder. If you have any questions, contact him on the forums. Check out the forums, with rules, content pack, IP address, etc at [url]http://fearlessrp.net/[/url]
Wait, there is actually a good rp server? Unheard of....
[QUOTE=crackberry;31757137]The server seems to never be up.

But, it's nice to at least be advertised by someone, very humbling. And play favorites, how so? One of the super admins here.

It is NOT RP by any means. It is horrible. It is deathmatch, not RP.
I've never been to a serious roleplay server that was legitimately "good". Either the admins are inactive or abusive, it's a mingefest and not serious, or the community is god-awful (cybering, etc.) And sometimes all three.
This has always lead me to thinking. For years facepunch has complained that there is no good rp server, so, why not make a good one? I mean a facepunch driven one. Group all the great lua coders together and let them brainstorm. Facepunch could make one hell of a good RP server.
None of the coders believe in GMod RP, and the ones that do already have their own servers and scripts.
As much as I dont want to, I am a Forum Administrator at Zakarum's HL2RP Roleplaying Community and is merely posting this cause you did ask for a least terrible rp server. I will be posting the community's I am in own topic but for now, here is some information: [IMG]http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/4735/zakarum2.png[/IMG] The Zakarum HL2RP Roleplaying Community is a community designed around the HL2RP Openaura Gamemode. It currently has a low player base due to its semi fresh opening but it is already growing and has a reputation for having a intricate storyline, a strong CCA Structure and many other things. Zakarum's Administration is made up of serious admins who's goals are of that to enhance RP, never ruin it. They do experiment with rp ideas all in the progress to find something good that all players and factions will enjoy. They will also make sure that those who are new to HL2RP are given a chance to learn and if they refuse to learn then they will be dealt with quickly (Not a ban for first time). The Zakarum Roleplaying Community is also hosted on a NFO Server which guarantees a good ping, high packet transfer rate and 100+ tick rate. This means more rp time and less lag! This does not make us the best community. That is your job. Currently, our CCA, CWU and other faction groups are currently keeping there applications open and ready for those who can roleplay to a good ability. So, if you are curious about joining, then check out our (Free because were poor) forums at [url]http://zakarumhl2rp.forumotion.com/[/url] If you want to just jump straight into the server (You will see model errors unless you have the TnB Model Pack) then the IP is: 66.151.244.72:27015

Novus Two: Rising Conflict is quite good if you like apocalypse roleplay. Serious and with a storyline. 109.70.148.68:27019 is the IP. You will need the contentpack from [URL]http://109.70.148.68/slanovustwo.rar[/URL] Its based in RP_Apocalypse. Automatic spawned items around, allowing for scavenging. Also zombies around. ( Which also auto-spawns ) Automatic weathermod as well. You get the epic roleplay feeling when playing. EDIT: Here.

[url=catalyst-gaming.net]Catalyst-gaming.net[/url] HL2RP, VERY serious roleplaying and pretty good moderation.
