I don't like this, but don't get me wrong.

Let me get my negative point across first:

1. Drama - So Drama and RP go together really well, and sometimes TOO well. It's hard for RP and drama to not spark arguments, mainly for stupid things like who owns so much land (Ex: Pearson controling heirs land), or who is the true ruler of what nation, or military might put simply. I don't know if it's just me, but I don't think RP not is a good idea, because lifting the ban on RP too early can cause people from other wiki's to flock here and cause upmost chaos, and don't get me wrong, I do think the administration (even if it's a small number) can stop it at its source from preventing drama, but I just think they won't give warnings out at the right time to prevent an argument. A person just because a law is written doesn't mean they'll obey to it.

2. Timing - G's main reason to put this was the VERY recent event that the forum's cut ties with us. And while I respect G and the administration, I, if the game was released near the time that this was proposed (It probably wouldn't be finished until we all grow old), I would support it. (I'm only supporting it for activity) The timing for this is unsual, to let RP run around here before a game is released will just bring back the drama back, and while the RP'ers on other wikis may not do much activity on their own wiki's, think about all the undone pages that they left here, It's going to be a cesspool of drama to figure things out and will often spark in arguments.

3. RP - I don't think I can stand for anymore discussion on subjects on land, military, disputed areas, etc. I left RP with a good reason, It was time for me to leave, and while you all MAY be like "Wow Sam, you're just salty they're coming to you." you're somewhat right, I don't like RP, but the overall complexity of it is somewhat intriguing, but I left RP to be mature again, and I came here to do so, and I have to say, it's improved a lot instead of people asking "What are you going to for your country" and instead it being, at, times, being a good conversation here. People here actually care about the REAL you, instead of RP'ers caring about the person you make yourself, then the real you lasty.

Now that that's over, let me get to my positive points:

1. Activity - Activity here is low, and everyone knows it, allowing RP here would increase activty by a lot, (Maybe not, but let's hope for the best shall we?) and activity is a good thing, even if it's a big wiki that is a shadow of its former self. I wouldn't mind being near some light-RP'ers like Nate or Hannah who tend to think about the real you and not on your RP persona.

2. Chat - People in chat is a good thing, I've heard stories on how chat was full to the brim, and that it was a good time (until the drama came, but let's not get to that.) I want to experience those moments myself, and see GFW back in the glory days. I want to say that it was a good time and enjoy myself, and while I may not like RP, it is a good thing to have another person in chat,  RP'er or not.
