Honestly. Its pure laziness from the EMS.
The Higher ups(dco+) are fine, they have been around for a few years now.
Even myself when i was active through EMS and gained my way to CEO.
I never had a problem with role playing. I was always thinking of new ways to create role play and interesting role play. Surgeries to amputations etc etc.
The list can go on if you decide to somewhat use your imagination. I think thats what people lack and come to the conclusion they get bored.
Yes there isn't a lot of activities as EMS, but there isn't anything wrong with using your imagination to create some role play.
It can get boring at times. But when people are dying you can generally enjoy yourself.
When Zomboid was in charge and some other boys were there we never had a problem having some fun.
