sigh ppl dont understand.

it had nothing to do with trying to force you to get rid of characters, its to try to force people to RP realistically rather than deaths every 2 seconds.


Otherwise these forums are going to get confusing as fuck with how many deaths a typical HpRp has and changing character names.

Never understood 24 hour death.
If you die ICly, you're dead ICly.
All I see is this:

Guy 1: - Legit murdered Guy 2. -
Guy 2: - Dead, buried, mourned over. -
- Next day. -
Guy 2: - Strolls through the halls. -
Guy 3: Hey there guy two!
Guy 2: Hey guy three!
Guy 3: Hey didn't you die yesterday?

Hello there!

You have a point, but the thing is, for the fun of the RP, people don't want to start over every five seconds. Think, someone hates you completely and they kill you everytime you go near them. Your pretty much screwed if it goes like this.

But when someone does kill you because you stood on their toe for what ever reason >_> no I'm not saying it's likely to hhappen... and waht ever... but it could end up like `H` just because there's only so many things you can do before there is literally nothing left to do till the Founders come up with storylines.

I think that if you're going to get killed then it needs to be agreed by both parties, a printscreen is issued and posted to the Head of Electives so that Trent can change the incharacter name of the person who died. If it's not agreed then 24 hours is enough, but they're not officially dead! they're rendered unable to roleplay = they're in the hospital wing... they were never killed / aren't dead.

This is the part that needs to be roleplayed properly - meaning that they need to have a friend, staff or someone to bring them to the hospital wing and the correct procedure is issued to make sure they're well again. They also need to have some form of scar or imperfection after realistic to the injury... They can create a 2nd character for 24 hours - but then once their character is well again then they can't use their 2nd character and they have icly told their proper character all the notes and stuff in order to proceed as normal.

On the note of the Slytherins, not all of them are bad. I was a Slytherin but I was only bad due to my character having Dissociative Identity Disorder; it's a long story. However, I find rules against randoming appropriate despite my opinions in the past. Also, I know it's more customary for a founder to do a storyline and write one up. On the other hand, it's not hard to take initiative and express an idea of yours to the founders. If the verdict is true, then bam! You just made a storyline! Overall, I still find 48 hour deaths inappropriate. One character only is permitted at the role-play, and the only other way to use another character is to kill off your current character permanently. I understand how you want to add the realism to deaths but that's up to the victim. Therefore, they can have a proper funeral without coming back the other day. Also a side note, with anyone who has the 24-Hour death concept confused it kind of works like this: Once the 24 Hour is over, no one knows you were dead. You don't know you were dead. Your killer does not know they killed you. You have no evidence whatsoever to provide that you died. And most importantly you do NOT come out a grave like a zombie.

Woah woah. Where did FOURTY-EIGHT HOURS come from? And I have to make a new character? What if I make a character that i really enjoy roleplaying with, and I've worked hard on that character then BAM perm death? I highly dislike perm deaths, and 24 hours is out outrageous enough. I think perm deaths should be decided upon by the victim and it should go no more than 24 hours.
Yeah, I Agree

Emz is right about some people. They make characters that have some disability or have some dark past that they think allows them to random. And if one of the elite owners isn't there at the time, they won't stop arguing.
