you obviously havent spent too much time in #Osu then

SPOILERLooking at it from a personal opinion standpoint, hell no.
Looking at it from a usefulness standpoint, hell no. Here's why.
In a roleplay, it usually requires the establishment of a bunch of things in the beginning (IE. Characters, sometimes plot (or at least the starting off), who's who, etc). If you do it in a channel, then every time someone comes in, you have to be like "Ok here's literally everything here's who's who and like here's yeah"
Plus if someone leaves it's really awkward because if the plot is around them at the point in the RP, you're pretty much killing an entire channel until they come back.
Plus, making it public allows people to just come in and be like "AND THEN A MONKEY CAME OUT AND LE POPED ON EVRI1 XDDDDDDDD"
In addition, when there are roleplay channels in other IRCs, there's generally one show/thing that the IRC is based upon. For instance, I was in an pony IRC and there was a pony RP channel. Because everyone there would agree that it would be about ponies. In a game like osu!, you'd go in and people would be like "I WANNA DO HETALIA XD" and someone else is like "I WANNA DO PONIES" and like there's no established guideline of what world the RP would be in. Multiple RPs don't work in there either, lol.
@Otonashi: That would get so intrusive, though. I do agree that a channel for anime/manga discussion would be nice, but people would wanna talk about a new episode of a show they like and people would be like "RUSSIA AND POLAND TOOK OFF EACH OTHER'S PANTS XDDDDDDD"
As an additional note, I've noticed often that separate channels to discuss individual topics have never really worked out as well as imagined. Look at how often there's large video game discussion in #videogames (The last I remember is when Mario Kart 7 was big, and E3 (Last year. My net died for this year's so I'm not sure)
It looks nice but it seems WAAAY too complex for something that doesn't really have a huge demand ouo.TheVileOne wrote:
Eh there would be conflicts among people wanting to roleplay different things. CDFA has a point about that. In other RP settings, there are multiple different chat areas to RP. There would only be one area for osu!RP.
I have a potential solution for that issue and other issues that are presented.
The same channel could be used for multiple RPs if the RPs were divided into groups on that channel. A user could enter a group via a command, and only members of that group can view messages. If someone would like to start a new RP, they could just create a temporary session and create a scenario via command. A member that is not part of any RP could show up in all chats by default, and members in a RP group can submit a message to the main chat by using a special OoC identifier such as !! or//
!rplist - Show all active RP sessions
!rplist -f -Show RP sessions with friends
!rpjoin <rpname> -Join RP session
!rpscenario -set -Set a message that defines information about the RP
!rpscenario -view -View current scenario (Will not be viewable to all by default)
!rpscenario -view -all -Display scanario in chat for all members of that rp group to see.
Only the RP host will be able to modify the scenario and set rp restrictiosn if any. Passing host can be done through command as well.
It's certainly a complicated idea, but it's possible. This idea will be easier to implement when clans/groups is added to the game if such an idea doesn't render this idea obsolete.

Like wtf that would be just spammy and nonsense lol
Remember this is a rhythm game. I don't think there's a place here for this stuff.
If you want to roleplay, omegle is a good place for this or maybe find specific forums.
There's also skype etc etc.

CDFA summed up my thoughts here.
We click circles, not roleplaying that we're Cookiezi and wanting to be the best at clicking circles. (I hope you get what I mean by this)

Well It would be nice though since #filipino is turning into some #roleplay stuffs which is full of nonsense and it's bothering some filipino players even though we told them to stop it they won't anyway no supp since it would be a disaster just by imagining it
