Looking for Sci-Fi RP server with custom lore.

Ground Zeroes: Seekers

I'll get you the lore in a second.

creating a server around the idea of an administrator is always right and the player is therefore wrong creates a community that is even worse, lmao.
a roleplay community isn't some authoritarian network that people willingly submit themselves to.

if you can't even debate and defend your own custom lore without telling players "shut up the admins are right" you are in for a ride as owner, boy.
debating and criticising each other's idea's creates a community, not you telling people they are wrong and should kill themselves.

i might have overexaggerated that the fights killed the community. but every player knew that the admins were writing lore, and we allowed people to contribute to the lore with backstories, lore applications and other stuff. One piece of lore conflicts with the other, a does not make sense, b has already been done, we don't want to include c because at x time we will include c to keep c a surprise. Idea d is good but it can be better by adding e and f.
that's what killed it.

i should've put a "P.S" note and then included my "advice", I didn't mean it as a thing open to debate about on a post that is for people to find sci fi rps on. But I felt it was necessary to defend myself.

 

I didn't mean it as an authoritarian network, oh boy, God no. I only replied to you saying about people questioning your creation and fighting over the lore. I guess we misunderstood each other here, because from what you've said earlier it sounded like people had some trouble accepting your creation, and that's not right, it just isn't. Of course, now that you explained it, it makes much more sense. Well, in such case some boundaries for creativity should be in place. It needs to be specified where exactly those lore boundaries are and how far can players go with their imagination. I am always open for ideas. It's always better to have more heads brainstorming about lore, events and stuff like that. But once the core of the lore is settled, it's settled, and if players want to have more of their input accepted, they need to make sure it fits with the existing lore. Am I making sense here? ^^

Anyway, back to the topic. I would love to see some space sci-fi that isn't about Mass Effect or Aliens or typical military stuff, I'm not into that. I would rather see some human factions, or maybe castes? On a ship / space station with limited resources and harsh laws where people would have hard times keeping their humanity. Yeah, kind of like first season of "The 100", but in more distant future, on the way to the "promised land" or something like that. There would, of course, be some kind of administration, captains or whatever, there would be a military unit, like soldiers or something like that, keeping people in line and executing laws accordingly. There would be regular members of the crew divided into factions, probably those factions would be settled by the role of a unit. But that depends mostly on the lore setting and whether it would be ship or a space station.

Well, it's just a rough idea anyway that has probably no chance of being executed.

 

uh yeah I mean you could just play SS13 at that rate, it's free and is basically what you just described.

most people play Gmod Sci-fi RP to take part in iconic facets of the Sci-Fi RP Genre, exploration, and war. I see what you mean though like that is an easily attainable system if you say sat down and just wrote it all out.

but eh whatever I basically am the gmod equivalent of a JROTC Cadet and like to roleplay in Military scenarios because 'muh army irl'

 

I don't really know what SS13 is. And if it's free, I don't think I will like it very much.

Exploration and war is okay, so long it's not presented in the same way over and over again. Some people think big, they have massive ideas for that stuff. But I'd rather bring it down to the interaction between people that are trying to survive in the harsh environment with no way out of it. Stuck in the cold space, probably awoken from their cryogenic sleep too soon and now forced to live for the next long years with limited ration supply. What would happen when the leaders would have to make a hard decision and start killing off people in order to reduce the population, which would reduce food consumption and give them more time until they reach their destination. People would start thinking - who's next? will that be me? my brother? my friend? People would either fight for a better position, make sure they are not next or they would rise against the leadership. Stuff like this is what I have in mind. But I'm not sure if people wouldn't get bored of something like this. Most people like to get in and shoot stuff etc.

 

how is ur medieval rp going I keep forgetting to go on it.

 

very tl;dr
new clockwork update --> stuff stopped working --> too much work for one man --> close community

 

maybe do sci-fi again.....

 

i'd only make another sci fi rp if you were there for me
but you are not

 

Pshht, if you would make sci fi rp, I can be there for you

 

if I may make a suggestion ahem:
