Ladies & Gentleman, I am Wilco and I welcome you to Roleplay UK.

I am part of the management team on Roleplay UK and I am part responsible for the day to day running of our community & servers along with the rest of our very dedicated management team.

About Me

I am currently 33 years old and pleased to not be the oldest member of the management team but certainly not the youngest.

I live with my girlfriend of 9 years which some of the community have met during our community meetups.

I work two amazing jobs outside of the community so I can be extremely busy therefore please respect my request to not message me or add me to steam, If you need to contact someone then please use the forums only. When I am online I am either working or extremely busy.

The Foundation Stone of Roleplay UK

I founded the community in February 2014 with a vision to build a community that players could be very proud to be part of and a one that was serious about Roleplay, i am a passionate one when it comes to this community, we have achieved so many great things and you will not find another one like it.

We run a very tight ship here and what I can promise players is a place they can call home and enjoy a very likeminded Roleplay enthusiastic and pleasant community for the next 10-20 years and beyond, We are well known for our strict rules but it is that ethos that makes the community what it is!

We were the first server to make everything completely UK themed and then focus our Roleplay around that which has been a huge success which we hope to move on to other games and platforms.

Today we stand the biggest Roleplay community in the UK & Europe and our community receives over 1.2 million hits a month.

Why I am still here after 4 years ?

Our Roleplay is second to none, We have some of the most talented Roleplayers in the world and to this day some of the on the spot thinking amazes me daily.

The structure of our board/management/staff/support & development team mean that I do not actually need to be here, So if I want to take a week off I can at a moment’s notice, I rarely do but it eases the mind of the very big task and responsibility I have here. 

But more importantly to my heart our community has helped many people overcome serious personal issues in real life right at their time of need.

We have laughed together, we have cried together and we have connected people to turn online friendships into real life friendships, that for me is worth every last second of time we have put into it.

I joined roleplay.co.uk at the beginning of May 2014. I started out as a Kavala hobo just trollolloling around for a few hours taking in the epicness of the server then made my way out into the world on my trusty quad bike. Before long I hit one of those pesky fences in the middle of the night. After spending about 10 minutes trying to work out how to actually repair my quad a member of FF was passing by. He took me short ride in his chopper and dropped me off in Athira with £200k to start my iron business. 24 hours later with practically zero sleep I made my first million. In the next week I met some of the best players I have ever played with here from a gang called FFE. We then joined up with the infamous BRC who were renowned for their RP. After a couple of months rebelling got stale and I joined the police. After spending an obscene amount of time as a PCSO I quickly went through the ranks to CSI then in November 2014 I applied for an admin slot, at the last minute mind you, which I thought I had no chance of getting. I then spent the next 6 weeks as an admin and one of the heads of police but I was spending more time dealing with admin issues and thought it was unfair on the police so I left.

From there I have been doing my thing on the server as an admin and later managedement team member. I do the odd stream now and again which I still try and get on the server for and have a laugh. Still loving life. Still loving the brilliant team I am surrounded by and I am still amazed by the ingenuity and uniqueness of the RP which can only happen here.

Much love,

Vlad.

I started playing Arma III Altis Life mode in the end of 2013, after watching a famous Youtuber video that was very entertaining.

After playing in some servers, i happened to land on this server after it's launch by mistake and it was one of the best mistakes i ever did!

I've been with this community from the very beginning and i cannot be prouder of what it became and the goals we reached.

I also would like to thank Wilco for making this happening and for being a great leader, all the devs for the much needed help , the whole staff for all the effort they put into this community all the time and the community members for returning here everyday and helping with what they can.
