There is another thread with a discussion regarding the need for a common RP instance. (see here: RP District Discussion ) .

It has been decided that we need to use an existing city instance as a default for RPers to gather in until such time/if this game ever provides a labeled RP district. Until such time the question is which one do we use in the meantime. Please vote on your choice.

American District 3 - 5 votes
American District 5- 4 votes
International District - 12 votes

Let's just make it 5. The International districts can be rather...crowded. Besides, I think the general concensous is district 5 anyway.

Actually, I'm from guild-hall.net's forums, and we decided a while ago to try to make it District 3, since there is not always a District 5. In fact, there aren't ALWAYS District 3s, but it's much more likely.

International Districts are another good idea, but they're always so crowded and full of multi-language spam, it's really hard to find anyone at all.

I vote international, since I've never seen more than 3 or 4 other people there. Of course, that may be because of the time differences between countries, but it would be nice to be able to roleplay with europeans occaisionally as well

Well, seeing as 3 and 5 are not always up, I'd say just use either or. As a rule of thumb, if they're both up, use the lower number.

That's the only compromise I can see at the moment.

Strife, taking your vote as 3 and 5 since you didn't pick one in particular.

I vote for the international district. From my experience it has not been crowded at all. Especially for private meetings, go to a mission launching point or arena and you have all the privacy you want.

And if it becomes not so private due to other rpers, then all the better!

I vote International. It's been quite uncrowded, for the most part, definitely less so than the other districts.

I vote International. Although I'm always worried that someone will come up to me speaking Korean and I'll end up standing there like a jerk unsure how to respond, it's always the least crowded when I'm playing.

Plus, this allows roleplayers from other continents to meet up, as opposed to the normal districts that only take you to the one you live on. At least that's my understanding of it, I'm not sure if it's accurate.

International, as it is often uncrowded. Or district 3, because there's more likely to be a district 3 than a district 5. But I think international would probably be a good choice.

I say international, the most I have ever since there was less then 5 at a time, and more often then not little is spoken

I vote INTERNATIONAL. They´re quite empty AND I´m from germany. So I shouldn´t have to make America my home-district to do RP (all of my friends play with Europe as home).

I also vote Internation as I'm from Europe. Making it American districts only isn't fair as I do want to play with my European guild as well as RP cross-world

Seems like Internaional is the least crowded so I'd say there.

I say International... I feel as if I spelt that word wrong.
Though I might not RP that much, I will when im not fighting =)

It would be wisest probably for this to be district 2 in instances where the population is too small for district 5 to exist, and district 5 any other time.

yes, i vote both.

Of course, international would work too since its permanent, but I have no clue how crowded that gets

International would be my preference also.

2 days ago there were 27 districts in Ascalon City when I logged in.
There were 2 International districts...nuff said.

Changed my mind... I decided the Int district is bearable, and the pros outweigh the cons.

I vote five because I enjoy the quiet of International Districts and would rather not have y'all spamming it up.

Fair enough. So please vote for the RP district petition and we'll all stay away from the Internationl District.

After going back and forth between the mentioned districts, I've decided to go ahead and change my vote to International, since I have to re-vote with the new poll anyway.

Oh wow, I have an idea....why not just make an RP District? Instead of taking up one of the other districts just have them make an RP District...or two of them..one for America/Europe and the rest be International so people can use their native languages is needed?

YAY FOR ME AND IDEAS!! lol....no but seriously, it would be sort of easier than forcing people out of a district so that it can become a mainly RP district.

This whole poll came about because of a discussion about creating a RP District. I'm new to this whole forum-posting thing, but I think this is a great idea. GW is my first MMORPG (well, tried EQ for a while not that long back, but I'm too frugal to be able to rationalize a monthly fee to play a game to myself, so quit after 30 day trial). I would love to RP. I voted 5 on the poll, but unofficially change it to International, as that appears to be where most of you other fine people have agreed upon. I hope to see you all around!
