I'll most likely drift in and out of character depending on the situation. However, my roads, cities, and signs will be heavily roleplayed, and I'm planning to get very organized with my friends as far as schedules and roles.

My ankle's uncle is my uncle's ankle. It's true! My Server Mods: Runecraft SMP Server Mod - java class replacer for SMP which adds magic runes. Llamacraft SMP Server Mod - bucket fix, lava nerf, etc.
I think that this game has it's most potential for fun in RP. It's a sandbox game based in a medieval world where players mold and shape that world. It's great!
I want to do some heavy RP similar to the RP found on the better Garry's Mod RP servers. My character looks like a nomad, bearded, older rough type. The type of guy you'd find deep in a mine covered in grime, he'd greet you with a big smile and offer you some ale. Sort of cliche in the RP world, but meh.
Two problems:
1.) I want an RP server. Smaller. With regulars that are in touch with the current RP storyline.
2.) I don't like large RP communities, which is usually the only thing a person can find unless you know people, which I don't.
BTW Uhm, if anyone /does/ have any similar interests or things that I might be interested in, send me a PM, no? I'm not too good at following threads, though I'll try to follow this one. I just joined the forum to meet more people, not really.. a forum type person.
I'm sure many others have realized the huuuuge potential for awesome RPs with all of Alpha's new (well, some are not so new to others, but I hadn't played in months so everything besides crafting was new to me) features. I keep imagining little villages built up, connected by a protected minecart train. Wars happening between opposing cities. Bandits. All kinds of stuff that could work if everyone was willing to work together to make it.
I realize not every server will be for serious RPing, but if I run mine again, it definitely will be. There are some issues, though, and I want to know how what other serious RPers think of them.
1. Most importantly: how many other people are gonna take it this seriously?
2. What if during an RP, a law enforcement system springs up and allows for the arrest of unruly players (not griefers, but RPers that killed someone else or something). There's obviously no mechanism to tie someone down and bring them to jail (at least, not yet), so what could be done? Maybe if the offender is beaten down to 2 hearts he has to submit to the offenders?
Well?
If you made an intense server, PM the IP for it. I would be totally happy to join, and have ideas for an awesome RP system as well.
This is the first game I've ever wanted to RP in- because this is the first game I've felt allowed me the freedom to actually fill the role of a character in the world.
I'm looking forward to seeing what server owners come up with as time progresses.
I could do RP, but not serious RP, like "Random Name is slightly annoyed at you, and from his facial expression gives the impression that he wishes you gone." That's boring. :V
My definition of RP is having roles in the game, and taking them seriously. Miners mine, city guard defend, etc, not miners do whatever the **** they want, city guard kill everyone claiming that they were a threat, and fights commonly and randomly break out in the streets while the city guard continue to kill one another.

This, this, this.
Something more relaxed on both the RP and gaming spectrum.
Choose a job and town (or even build your own with people who are settlers or something)
Have some form of enforcement to stop grievers/trolls.
I think a map where there's a large town where people can take a job as some sort of law enforcement. The rest go out and form groups of villages. The large town is in charge of protecting the villages and roads between them from other players and other threats. Villages mine, grow food, hunt, trade, and in some cases fight each other.
People will have to be serious tho or else all havoc will be unleashed. Admin as the king/leader of the island or whatever.
I wont Roleplay a ****, i wouldnt give a damn if some ran up at me and said UR ORCZORS YOU CANNOT HAS GOLDENN APPLEZ GETTOUT MISSTERS, i would rather chop him to death with my "primitive" stone tools..
Only if i get in the mood to do so, but then its just dialogue, i wont run around bitching other people for breaking rp rules.. And ***** about stupid races some drugged writer once made up..
