Back to raggin on the bad guys eh?
Try and play a bad guy. Roll a new character and try to rp and succede in:
* pick pocketing someone in a crowd without getting caught.
* luring someone out of the city and offing them
* kidnapping someone
Try to rp doing these things without getting caught. Play as if you wanted to use this character for a long time.
Is not as easy as it might appear.
Lastly try to play a character like this for a month and consistently:
* be mean and rule to others - even when you feel like being nice
* don't piss anyone off oocly
* ensure that the victims of your crimes are entertained.
* role play each and every consequence of your actions no matter what they are.
Like Rigwyn said. but let me add that my character is not that bad of a guy and I am still having troubles with the above things that he said.
* ensure that the victims of your crimes are entertained. - This is what I try but what ends up happening is people godmodding their way into "knowing" that my character did it (Note that I am not even a "mass murderer" of some kind. Plus I don't do the crimes often, only sometimes) so it often leads to this: * role play each and every consequence of your actions no matter what they are.
It's not really that easy. I feel that I piss somebody OOCly all the time and at the end of it that they did not have any entertainment. in /tells, all players always say "I should have attacked you", I should have ran away". I always feel like they need to change it to "[my char] should have attacked [your char]", "[my char] chould have ran away".

Yes, you see these are all possible. I mean if your char is an "expert" and has been doing it for years, They should be able to do this. Yes maybe with some risks but I see many people roleplaying themselves [their character but it seems that they think THEY are the CHARACTER which is not] out of it. People needs to be honest about their characters : would they actually be able to get out of the situation? are they actually fast enough to run away? are they strong enough? injuries? I know this has been discussed a million times but no one seems to be getting it.
I know all this crap about "you can't force anyone to roleplay with you" yadi yada yada. Well this is the roleplaying server. If no one wants to roleplay or godmods their way out of it, then what is the point of the roleplaying server?
It is hard
Think about the "cloaks". I mean some has tried masks, heck I even tried dried blood and mud just for the sake out of it (which i'm never trying by the way). They are not always cloaks or hoods.
Similar? well we would need more players playing at the same time now would not we? That way they would learn from each other. (they can also adjust OOCly)
And they are not all Smartass sarcastic ratbags. looks like it because you are controlling a cocky guard. Like Rigwyn said, try playing a bad guy.
(this is not just for Akkaido anyways. Like Rigwyn stated "Back to raggin on the bad guys eh?". meant for them(the bad guy raggers))
