Part 1: How will rolling benefit us:
In our current state of RP, we are going along the basis of P2L (Play to Lose) this means that many players have created characters or based their storyline along something which is highly improbable, highly OP or very hard for some players to accept IC. This causes the staff team problems relating to many different things, including players reporting and telling us that their character has been killed by a "Robocop", "Terminator" or "OP Killing Machine", the problems this causes for us is that we have a certain number of players on the server going around with OP characters which cannot be killed; from my own and many others (I have spoken to people) point of view, this alienates many players to have to stay away from any action they may want to get involved in, this does not go without saying the general gist of action inside of Roleplay is generally recommended to stay away from. When rolling is implemented it gives every single player the ability to mold Roleplay around their very own storyline and playstyle; if a certain player wants to try and resist the ties a MPF unit is placing on them, by trying to squeeze their wrist out of a tie, or even try to fight a "OP Character" they have the chance to win a certain scenario. This does not mean players can run around typing "/me snaps mpf unit's neck" "/roll 100", it means that players have the opportunity to develop their character further and get into a lot more situations they previously had not had the chance to get into.
Now, onto the rest of the guide. I'll try to keep it short.
Part 2: Rolling Guide. When do I use it:
Now some of you may be asking "What is Rolling" or "How do I use rolling". Rolling as I have already stated is a simple way of balancing RP, giving players the opportunity to win different scenarios they may be placed into. Here is a small example of when rolling is best used. Before I go any further, you may also be asking about roll bonuses in this certain scenario alone, everything to do with them will be covered in part 3.
Any further Roleplay from this point is completely up to that Citizen character to mold around and change to however he wants. Again, this does not go without saying in many situations alike this, roll bonuses may be apparent, scenarios like this may not be able to work to their fullest.
