Welcome to the Cantina!

I know a lot of you are RPers from other games and here's your very own corner to introduce yourselves. There's some spots by the bar and I know I saw some Jawa Juice in some of the bottles. (yuk) If you're more of the shy kind, I'm sure you'll find a table in one of the areas behind that blue thing hitting up that nasty looking Bounty Hunter.

- Agent: *walks in without looking anyone in the eye, and sits in the dark corner near the refreshers, eyes glinting behind his sunglasses (whatever they call them in SW) and shifting from patron to patron whilst he waits to place his order*

- Smuggler: *Trudges in with a gloomy look on his face, a huge dirty wookiee pushing him forward whilst (probably) chortling, and sits at the bar, orders a big glass of Juma juice and continues looking miserable and sorry for himself*

- Knight: *Breezes in with a nervous-looking Rodian, all the while laughing and walking slightly unsteadily, catches a glimpse of the pole dancers, grabs the Rodian and elbows his way to the nearest one, cheering as he goes*

- Warrior: *walks in, immaculately dressed, with an entourage of young Sith nobility... Glances scornfully around, and begins to argue with one of his entourage about the "filthy dump full of aliens and commoners", and eventually bullies s a young couple off their comfortable sofa by Force-choking the male for intimidation and sits there with his friends.

Take your pick!

Well I got into RP quite a bit (Ok a LOT in SWG when PVP went down the plughole) Though I am not the type of RP'er who sticks in char all the time, its just too much effort for me, hehe, I did enjoy it when I got in char.

I used to RP a pretty dark Sith Inquisitor in SWG, and yes, I was excited when I saw it as an actual starter class for this game!!

I may post some of my story stuff on here, but will warn you all some of it is pretty dark, lmao

If I'm on an RP server I generally stay in character in chat bubbles and guild chat if it's required... Otherwise I simply stay within the ruleset.

What I love about RP is that you get to actually create a game within the game, you use your imagination and creativity and last but not least, it's the only "MMO" activity that is done solely for pleasure and fun, without any other reward involved

But... what if I am the blue thing shyly trying to hit up on that bounty hunter (and making a fool out of myself)? How am I supposed to sit in an area behind myself, unless ofcourse the blue thing is a master of the time-space continuem... Wohoo, I'm a Q... wait, wrong galaxy.

And that in my opinion is what makes us the most respectful kind of player (generally, there are always exceptions on both sides). Or at least perceived as a great community to hang around for non-RPers that like to get away from the idiots crawling around in the cesspool.

Boi I got so many...

Hi. Big-time RP'er here, signing up for this community. Feel free to open up discussions about RP stuff, I love that almost as much as the actual roleplaying

In general people seemed more relaxed and polite on the RP and RPPvP servers I played, though some of the RP elitists I ran into were obnoxious and some people were just downright creepy (you know... the Goldshire types. Thankfully I was Horde, with the exception of 1 character created solely for druid RP so I generally escaped the whole Goldshire scene).

I very much welcome non-RPers who simply want to be there to escape from the usual server types, as long as they abide by the ruleset

Solar spectacles?

Ya know I never really got into the RP aspect of the game but when I played wow (the lower-case was intentional, wow.. meh..) I rolled a female gnome mage as an alt. I had never had the desire to play a female before but she was so unbelievably cute I just got sucked into the character. I ended up making her my main and Cuteasabuttn was born! I had a lot of fun with the RP aspects of that character. She was irrepressible and giggled infectiously. She was an engineer and was always threatening to destroy people with her ARMED AND FULLY OPERATIONAL GNOMISH DEATH STAR!!!

Here's a peek at her.
