There will always be a cycle of newer members wanting things that we've already discussed years before.
SeriousRP doesn't mean having a stick up your arse 24/7, but there are people (myself included) that enjoy the finer details that only come with taking things seriously. There is a section of the base (Mess Hall) where Semi Serious RP can take place. Furthermore, some battalions are more relaxed in their RP, some battalions (like my 104th or my Shock, were extremely serious) part of the enjoyment is having those guidelines to RP within, they help our RP grow and things become more unique, complex, and enjoyable
