NationStates Jolt Archive

Hi everyone,

It pains me to have to ask this, but I have searched through the various help threads and found nothing to help me with this issue.

I recently started an RP in an attempt to reintroduce my nation, and made it relatively open. Long story short, one of the other RPers introduced something in a post I neither expected or approved, and I overreacted, slamming the other nation OOCly; the RP has now been effectively frozen for the past few days as a result. I'm in the process of trying to apologize to the RPers concerned and trying to restart the RP.

Whether or not the RP can itself be salvaged is a secondary concern for me. Right now, I am more worried that my one moment of bad judgement is going to be a permanent stigma.

So: is it possible to rebuild your reputation after a bad RP? Has anyone successfully reformed? Or am I doomed?

If it was something you didn't want involved in the first place then you should be well within your rights as in regards to not wanting it to happen. How you handled it I don't know though.
Your RP reputation should be based more on how you write, how realistic you are, and how interesting it all is. If say, for instance, you never want nukes in your RPs, then that shouldn't be a problem.

I tend to roll with the punches with my RP as long as the other play 'aint modding; but I don't think anyone is ireadeamable to the point of having a permenant stigma; even Hataria has made a lot of progress. the person you blew up at might not want to play for a while but theres plenty of us around.
