Im considering if i should make a rp thread on /cyb/
| Sure. We need more "normal" in character postings on /cyb/ anyway.
I mean, we already have ads for CoPepsi and /burg/er stores.
| Earlier an RP thread was made about a unspecified tournament and it quickly turned into an argument over tier lists and combos, just like if people were discussing fightans here. It was actually a pretty fun thread.
| I have the story\setting\style\lore
Thought through while still keeping in synch with the rules
>its in glich city (cuz its a video game
>no mary sues/gary stus
But im still paranoid that nobody will like it.

To be honest, you can't please everyone in the board~ Only some people. I think as long as it doesn't try to retcon anything that's happened in the board's history so far and doesn't step on anyone's toes, you'll be fine.
But I feel like that's not going to happen with a thread devoted to in-character discussion about video games, lol. Unless you like somehow destroy the city or introduce yet *another* paramilitary organization brought in by the city's government.
| Either way, the mods will step in if it becomes a problem. Just enjoy yourself! ^^
| Oh, i did not mean a thread where we talk about video games in a roleplaying manor, i mean the character(s) are playing a mmo
| >>163245
Oh! Do you mean a character playing a MMORPG in universe in Glitch City, or that Glitch City is a mmorpg and a character is playing in the world, like No Game No Life?
There's an ARG (on hiatus) in /cyb/ right now where players, who live in Glitch City, are playing a VR MMORPG to ignore how shitty it is in Glitch City. Sorta like .hack.
| I intended on going with the first option where people are playing a game. Now that i know its taken,guess i wont make one.
| Sure, but like I said, it's on hiatus right now until the GM gets back, probably this summer.
It's not like there needs to be only one MMORPG that people in Glitch City can play anyway, if you really still want to try the idea. :P
| Thanks ill give it some thought
| Just do it! It sounds like fun, and we need more "fun" threads. Most of the setting threads are pretty serious, and while the ads and the Helpg/u/r/l threads, especially the Helpg/u/r/l threads, are a lot of fun, we could always use more.
| And you also shouldn't be shy about starting threads. This is a pretty loose forum, and I have seen threads get very popular, even though they have horrible grammar, or a not so detailed/lack luster story. /cyb/ is about making your own fun.
| >>163504
As this g/u/rl.
And like I said, if something *actually* becomes a problem, the mods will step in and mediate. But that's very rare.
| Have you made it yet? Haven't seen any video game related threads.
| There's a video game store ad on the board... owo
| Uno momento por favor
| I am planning to make it, but my gut told me to hold out then boom low and behold the UK are attacking GC,ill do it when the dust settles
| >>165918
Nemind it was retconed.
Thread will be called:
(vr mmorpg) Story Of Creation
Ill do it when the number of threads on /cyb/ died down a bit
| >morphine_blues
| Cool. See you then.
-GG
| :3
| Well. You better post soon, now that the "war" is over.
| Hey, check it out, I think OP posted at last!
| Better keep bumping this thread then. So far I love it. I have never seen anything like this being done on /cyb/, and to be honest, this might just start it's own category of threads. Story of Creation threads becoming a thing would be really cool, and I think it will probably happen.
| >>167992
>For now.
I'm referring to if anyone else tries to run the same project. After all, you're the second person to run a VR MMORPG in /cyb/.
| It can be a good thing to do more vr threads cuz some roleplays Utterly trash the city (like the 12 hour uk war if it was not retconned)
So instead they can trash a city in a vr game.
| >>168012 That would be nice for a change. Having basically an SAO type thing in this world would be really fucking cool.
| >>168012
The war ended up not happening when Jinterprises bitch-slapped the UK by shutting off their power grid. After that, a news reporter mistakenly reported that a vending machine company called "VinderTech" stopped the Brits, so now everyone who isn't in the know is celebrating their success.
| (Though in reality the roleplayer running the Brits either got cold feet, really busy in real life, or both.)
| >>168020 It was some irl stuff. She didn't specify, but she won't be able to be active here for a while.
| >>168056 Yeah. She said she'll come back though. And when she does, there will definitely be a war.
| >>168079 ? Do you not want a war while Helpg/u/r/l is going on? Why is that? He was about to start a new era of Helpg/u/r/l that was part of the war. A kind of more serious version of the other stuff.
| >>168153
To be honest, he doesn't really have a choice. The events take place in Glitch City when they do, and people just have to deal with it as it comes... or do something about it in character.
Pretty much what Helpg/u/rl did, wrapping the impending war into their own arc.

>morphine_blues
| Hello, hello there! I really like the idea of having another layer of roleplaying in /cyb/ (recursion is the best thing ever) — I joined a while ago as xnbc (Aria), and I was thinking about this: since this is an MMORPG, I thought of having separate setting threads for whatever events or happenings in the game.
We have the g0regun battle, but I'd like to avoid disturbing the battle, so would it make sense to make a separate thread? -xnbc
| Oh, and another thought: I think that threads shouldn't necessarily be an event. This is my opinion, but having the /cyb/ system be grandfathered to the game, so a place can have its own setting thread, would still work, in a way.
But hey, that's just my piece of thought. I'm quite happy to see how well this will unfold. -xnbc (in case my IP changes)
| >>169127 >>169132
As i said in the meta
''people looking to roleplay SoC can create a separate thread with SoC sidestory in the title.''
| >>169151
Aaah, that makes so much more sense now. I should've read the meta thread more.
>punches self in disgust
Thank you for respelling the information I obliviously missed, haha. -xnbc
| >>169151 >>169156 >>169163
Ohh that gives me an idea for a side story for >aria
So i have your consent to make it ''evening''?
| >>169177 What happens in the sidestories wouldn't need to correlate with the other ones, just like normal threads.
| >>169186
No i mean im calling the person who is plays aria, Eveing the rp caracter.cuz evenings ip keeps changeing.
| >>169207 If evening is not your character, then you can not call yourself that, no. Your IP changes if you change WiFi, if you stop otlr start using WiFi, if you use another device etc. An IP changing does not mean it's a different person.
| If you look at my IP, it has changed. I'm the person who wrote the message above.
| That's because I stopped using WiFi for a moment.
| Incidentally, events that effect the city or anonymous messageboard itself essentially affect every aspect of the "world" of /cyb/ itself, so in the event of say, an EMP, or another massive event like the December Riots or the 24 Hours War, there is the possibility that the MMO could suffer a service interruption, or anything else that would make sense if the chaos is large enough.
You might want to keep too many threads for the MMO in check, however.
| If the number of players starts getting too big, you might want to consider just getting a Discord and running it from there instead, while occasionally referring to it in-character on /cyb/. It'd be cleaner and lead to less thread bloat. There are already starting to be too many (setting) threads as it is.
| That's more or less what the other VR MMORPG started doing, which is why you don't really see it on /cyb/ unless someone talks about playing it.
| A discord would be really cool! I would be all for that! If you had like a discord server and when people were talking about the game you could go on discord on to play it and shit! Then you could also have different chats for different locations, and a rules page and everything like that! It would be really cool!
| One problem,
What is discord?
>Morphine
| >>169400 Well yeah. That is certainly a problem. It's like a group chat thing, where you can set up servers with different channels and stuff. If you search it up, download it and make a user I could send you my name and tag so you can add me, and I could give you a tutorial on how it works.
| That explains a bit
I just googled it
IRL i only play single player games
| >>169422 Ok. That's pretty understandable then. It is also used for stuff like roleplaying though, so you should check it out. My name and tag is: Gard Gasodden#6486
| >>169430
Hmm i agree whith the discord but i want to keep SoC here for a while longer so some others will know about it. If you look at the meta right now under all the clutter there is only like 7 ish characters.
| >>169438 Yeah yeah. I get that! I too think you should keep it on here for a while. Maybe if you make a discord you could still have a few threads here with a discord link together with the rules link at the top.
| Holy hentai jesus crist SoC is on the wiki now when i found out i started punching my bed in joy but i punched my penis so now i am typeing this while crying tears of pain and joy no joke
>Morphine_blues
| >Random bump with random fact
I'm GG.
*Silent shock everywhere.*
| The fist side stories went up today! I eagerly await to see how they go.
