Причина: Adding something

I personally find managing and administrating the RP environment entertaining myself. However role-playing can be entertaining at times.
It's not for everyone, and at times it can be extremely boring, even when interacting with other players. I personally prefer to role-play a legal civilian, working day by day. Others find gang banging doing illegal activities entertaining as can be somehow. I'm going to take one of the most popular forms of RP style for my example, the gang-banger. Imagine growing up in the ghetto with no money, friends, or values of your own. You need to work your way to the top, and doing so you obtain and sell drugs, guns, and stolen goods. As you interact meeting new people, you begin to realize they want you to join their gang, other wise they're going to beat you severely. You take their offer up and begin to work for them, progressing in 'respect' within the gang meeting others. You go out, spraying graffiti throughout the city with your gangs tag. Your home boys are feeling a bit high and have this idea they're going to take a trip into the rivals turf and spray it up. Next thing you notice a group of 8-14 men jump out of the vehicle, equipped with brass knuckles, bats, and one Asian that appears to know Tae Kwon Do. Not only is your 4 home boys shaken in their boots, you're out numbered and cornered. Before you have time to even think about running they're beating the living out of you, stealing everything you own. All they left for you is a black eye and your clothing. Your gang members left you to rot, and sit alone. They deserted you, leaving you to suffer. You thought they tried to fight them off with you - but they didn't. Not only do you know longer have an idea of what to do, you have nothing - once again. This is when the cops roll in, seeing you. You take off without hesitation scared and shocked.
You don't know why you're running, but you are. You jump the fence, limping after landing. The officer rolls up in front of you in a cruiser and jumps out, charging his tazer. You quickly hop into the pool of water that you just so happen to be standing by. But suddenly, you realize you cannot swim. You never learned as a kid growing up in the ghetto with nothing. You begin to panic, slashing your arms left and right screaming and yelling for help. You don't want to drown, do you? No. Officer Christian drops his gear, diving in after you. After picking you out of the water, they cuff you up. Granted you're no longer in the position you want to be, you feel gratitude for them. They saved your life after all. You explain you have nothing on you, no friends, nothing. You're new to the city - in theory. But as Officer Christian reaches into your baggy pants, he finds something: it's a bag of weed. He asks and questions you about it, and you deny it. Suddenly something hits you, and you have a flashback of your so called friends planting it on you when they ran.
Not only did they just screw you over, you're now heading to jail for possession of illegal narcotics. You try and explain you've never seen the weed before, but they don't believe you. They're being generous and ignoring the fleeing and alluding stunt you just pulled on them. You try everything you can to escape the cruiser, but you cannot. It's too strong from within. You just want to burst out and cry, and you do. You don't know why, but you do. They begin to feel remorse as you do, and they let you out taking your weed. You're happy, but once again, confused. You're now left back on the street to regain your respect and work your way up in the food chain, with nothing. You decide to take your life in a new direction, working.
Now that's just the typical 'I'ma gang banga!!!' style. I prefer playing a rich legal boy myself. Role-playing is basically using your imagination applying server rules, physics, and other realistic things to the game. Now the chances you're going to find a role-play scene where the other guy isn't there to win, is unlikely in SA:MP. However when everything is being played out fairly, it's fun. I don't know about you, but I don't find doing the same repetitive tasks shooting someone daily, or doing stunts fun.
