Only staff that roleplayed as "Hollows" got a REP.

But is it really "roleplay". It's easy to label yourself as a "Hollow" but when you're running around stabbing people while making ghost noises in your mic and the admins call it REP worthy? Sounds like they were all in the same Teamspeak channel and just wanted to hand REPs to each other for having a fun time. The REP system is biased and it always will be. Like for example, Nightmare got a REP for chilling in a locker? Just doesn't make sense

About  , that was a part of his roleplay, he had lost his friend and roleplayed about it.

So we continued or RP there, where is the problem?
Also, why do Staff Members get RP points if they organized the event?

The 3 mods that got one were part of it. they did not organize it.

The helped organizing it though. (For example; At the beginning.)

Our group was sticking together and built a shelther together, is that not Roleplay for you?

I wasn't just hiding in the locker for the sake of it. Bambo (who was RPing as an injured veteran) got ambushed by a Hollow and I saw him die right in front of me.

If you saw your best friend/person you care about die right in front of you, you wouldn't be in a happy state of mind, would you?  You would be upset, distraught and emotionally distressed. That's why I ran off and hid in a locker and began to cry.

EDIT: I was his carer and was with him from the very start of the RP. He was in the same hotel room as me.

 Our team died from time to time INFRONT of us.

I think I saw somebody lying dead, He was even my friend, So I went back to our shelter and I acted upset

Even if Nightmare, you got a RP point, you have no point in being frustrated or something.

Too sum up. Whoever is friendly with admins during the event got noticed. Therefore got a REP. Bias

There was a lot more additional RP to what I did. I was also helping gather resources, look after Bambo and helped the team effort. There was build-up to it and appropriate backstory.

It's not about you, it's about all the other people that roleplayed too, is it so hard to understand?

.B Yep

There is no point into making comments that you cannot backup.

I'm purely trying to say why some people including me got their REP's over others. I fail to see why people are so mad over REP's anyhow, they are intended to be an incentive. Nothing else.

 Why did everyone in the Channel of the Staff Members that were on the Server get a REP then?

Im not pissed that I didnt get a rep quite frankly I could give to flying fucks about reps. I play for fun no incentives but when other players get reps for doing the same rp as others thats just unfair or is it a coincidence that the people who got reps where in the channel with the admins/mods running the event.
