Unenforced rules might as well not exist; if the speed limit on the straight road is forty, but no one ever gets pulled over, it'll default to sixty or higher as road and weather allow. RP's no different.

Because UH has no enforced rules? You want ISRP settings, stay on ISRP. As much as you'd like the ISRP and UH to be the same, they're simply not. Get used to it.

^^ This. There's been some arcs come into play (The dairy farm and the recent demon attacks) but there's no over-arching plots to keep people engaged. Well, that and it's near time for final exams. That always takes a toll.

Honestly, UH is being abandoned in droves. There seems to be all of six players on there trying to keep it alive, but a group has moved off to imaginechat and other servers. Unless there's an influx of new players - and I don't see that happening - ISRP/UH have fallen below sustainability...

I'm not sure if it's by accident or design, but it seems like Enworld staff simply doesn't care whether the ISRP chat portion of the site works. The place has been pretty well barren since the server move and the subsequent downtime. I know a handful of players are already moved over to UH...

Quoted for truth.

(in character) Yer's a whiner, Bari. Stupid quarterling... *mutters* (back to he player) Like Platinum above, I've been a long time player, starting just after TSR (remember them?) moved the chat site to their servers from AOL. While the RP is cyclical - summers are slow, just after Yule...

So, I've been running a monk character in a pen-and-paper 3.5 edition game. She's all of third level and has managed to get herself unknowingly infected with lycanthropy. The SRD says a monk who loses Lawful alignment can never gain monk levels, however where her alignment changes only for the...

Wait what? You've had enough of ISRP? Say it ain't so!:(

I routinely use it for characters I'm working on in ISRP, pen-and-paper and fiction I write. Good stuff, indeed.

I was wondering when someone would get to one of my characters. ;) I was thinking about Tassarina, and was saddened to see the web site disappeared. Khalas, to the best of my ability to determine, went through university; haven't seen his player since. Silverlock's player

Just offer them a stake dinner at sunrise. Problem Solved! :-P

While not televised, take a look at any major atrocity / genocide circa 1920~2007. In .us, I expect to see pay-per-view executions in my lifetime. Sad.

Which leaves a problem for Steel, although his conversion has been clearly piecemeal and very much against his better judgment if he could have exercised it at the time. . . but being nearly dead doesn't give you many options, je? :-) Merle's player

"Huh. Tha' won' do at'all." And off she shuffles.
