Thought I saw a rco once....
Krypton is right in the sense of having to work for your combat. Pre 6.0 (the good ole days), asylum seemed to have the perfect mix of RP and combat. You could rack up a 5 million dollar bounty (500k now) and go to a cop and talk for half an hour and then get pardoned. Nowadays on 6, or for any of the servers for that matter, I rack up my bounty and turn myself in to try and get some fun RP with the cops, talk for an hour (longer then the jail sentence) and then get a full ticket. FOR A GOOD STORY! If you try and RP as a rebel, like ask for demands for a hostage or something, the cops will just go in guns blazing with no negotiations. If you try and RP as a civ, people will just blow you off in order to make money. I believe that the real reason that RP has gone to the shitter is that making money is harder and takes more time. Pre 6.0, people were not as worried to put gear on the line. Yes everybody had high powered weapons but they felt better with the risk of loosing them. One time I remember the entire Marauders gang walked down the center of athira (we were RPing as protesters or something) in full gear. We ended up getting our plan foiled by an RDMing cop. Son of a bitch.....
Anyway, whitelisting the server won't help anything. Take the APD for example. It is whitelisted, but bad apples will always get accepted and good people won't get accepted. The real way to fix it would be by making money easier for all people will be spending less time making money, more time fighting, RPIING, and having fun.
