Lack of role-play on server

[Sarawr!?]

The best way to improve the overall roleplay on the server is to express excellence in one's own serverside RP, consistantly and regardless of conditions. The second best way to improve overall roleplay on the server is to tutor other players, especially new players, through pairing with them in groups or inviting them into a faction.

That, a thousand times that.

However I know some on this server would take 'tutoring new players' to mean: "PM them and yell at them/threaten them until they RP" Or just simply do that without any misconception too.

Teaching new players to RP, or pming them and nicely pointing things out to them, or directing them to the forums is a good idea.

Another thing I STILL don't get that I noticed here was somebody saying the whole "Trying to RP in Liberty? lalala" thing.

Y'know it's attitudes like that that maybe drive people to avoid certain places/factions, which thusly strips more potential RP from happening.

That said, I strongly disagree that there's any problem RPing in Liberty.

Yes Liberty is where all the nubs start. But Liberty is also host to several factions with a lot of Veteran members of this community in them. A lot of people who RP quite well even.

Hell look at me, if you ever see me in game, if there's not a fight going on, all I do on my [LN] is fly around RPing or trying to get others to RP with me.

Encourage Roleplay, instead of saying LOL DON'T GO THERE. How about some of you guys ENCOURAGE people to go into different areas than usual, or try going there yourselves and start planting RP seeds. As a primarily Liberty based player I can say this:

Because of all the new players there, yes there's a lot of OORP stuff going on, but it's really pretty easy to tune out, and if you look in the right places there are plenty of people in Liberty during peak hours who are generally dedicated to the play-style namesake of this server.

EDIT: Also, I strongly disagree with OP's idea that Official factions, of all things, are behind the decrease in Roleplay on this server.

Sure there's some groups that gained Offical status and probably shouldn't have, but barring them, Official factions are generally host to some of the best Roleplayers that I know, on this server.

Also, PVP =/= RP. PVP is part of RP, but does not equal it..and I honestly hope that the people who said that here were not serious..
