I would honestly love to have this server be more serious RP focus over its semi serious (basically TDM) that it is right now.
I'm afraid there's only so much we SMT can do from our stand point as if the players such as Dclass just want to murder and kill people then we are of course going to "cater" to that audience, I think alot of ppl can admit that the wider majority of the server wants the combat on the server and id actually say its the one thing we have over most other SCP RP servers. I can only go "encouraging" a change within RP in Dblock if I have the support of Dclass/CC's, But another issue i find is also a lack of researching. Ive personally sat in Dblock before begging to be tested on waiting long periods of time to be tested on. No new player is going to want to do this especially if they see Dclass CC's running around killing security, they will just want to join in on the fun.
All in all its hard to implement Roleplay into Dblock unless the players themselves push for it, One change that I can think of to help with the "push" would be removing the big red line and forcing more of a prison style line up.
