RolePlaying Game: No Zippies |
You
may have heard the term zippy before. Its also used with the
terms, " Godplayer", " Munchkin", "
Godmoder", and " Powergamer". What are these
you ask? Well, let me tell you.
These
are players who like powerful characters. I mean really powerful
characters. The players seem to get their rocks off lording
it up over other characters, basically creating these massive
combat monsters that haven't an ounce of creativity in their
whole being. Some of the typical signs of one of these assmunches
are as follows:
-
Character
is indestructible and unharmable. If not indestructible, can
dodge and parry everything.
-
Never
takes damage.
-
Deals own damage.
-
Will
try to kill an opponent with a single blow, without giving the
opponent a chance to dodge.
-
Will
declare an opponent dead when they are not.
-
Has
a weapon or something that gives him power over everything.
-
Can
kill a god with a single blow from said weapon.
-
Does not respect the other character's powers and abilities.
-
Acts
without considering the consequences of their actions on everything.
-
Will
take on thirty kinsmir single handedly and not even get dirty
(or expects to at least)
-
Is
a hack and slasher and has no sense of creative roleplaying.
-
Seems
to focums on nothing but combat.
-
Has no sense of humor about combat, takes it way to seriously.
-
Never
bothers to understand what they are fighting or want to fight.
Playing
with characters that are played as mentioned above have exactly
zero fun value for any of the other players involved. As such,
I will not tolerate or approve any characters that even remotely
stink of zippiness. So if you are a player like this, who enjoys
nothing but combat and doesn't actually want to ROLEPLAY, don't
join.
The
shifters RP has a Zero Zippy Tolerance policy. Which means if
I find you being a zippy, you are gone and banned. Got it? Good.
