I am have them removed, seeing how there is such a rage over them and that I have not been on yet to RP them once, but it wipes away a good deal of my character's backstory and experiences in life. Also, they would pretty much be an iron sword, only slightly weaker. I am used to the RPG vs. RP format so I may be doing this incorrectly. Please do tell me if I am so I can make changes

Guys, he still has to use a regular sword, it's just something cool he can say in game, I mean, if he says he's gonna stab you with them, are you gonna yell agh and /kill?

I don't think there is at all of a problem having the weapons for lets say, character design or background reasoning. However, if you were to type in game 'My character pulls out the knives and stabs your character faster than he could block' then you would be using them to powergame. Using action typing to fight is fair but boring; nobody will ever win:

'My character stabs at your character.'

'My character blocks your stab.'

'My character stabs at your character..'

Etc..

You could very well use a sword in game for PvP (or PvE if you really wished) and recall of how you used your knives but in that instance you couldn't particular force others to realize you were using it. If you attacked somebody with a sword, they would think you attacked them with a sword - of course they would have no other reason to think so. You could state in game, or supplement information in local chat, that your character's sword is a concealed knife, but there aren't any rules to limit or force others to follow that RP view/extension.

So then...what exactly is the arguement then?

The new RPers we've been getting don't seem to understand RP in minecraft.

Yes, we want the server to be as real as we can get it, but still to the point were its STILL minecraft, not some made up game in which you walk around and type your actions and such.

This is an RP server, but we are still inside a minecraft world, if you're so into this type of RP, I'm sure there are other games that would better suit that type of play.

Ahh so it is not text based fighting. I think I understand now. Thanks for explaining.

That is completely preference. You can text base fight as you please, as most of us do to get the point across, rather than just stabbing with a diamond sword.

Oh good, I prefer text based fighting. It adds to the realism and feel for me, and isn't based off spamming click
