#53436, "Without naming names..."


          

Is anyone else annoyed by the Kelly Bundy/Valspeak character running around in game?

Curious why that character hasn't been denied yet. They're clearly not so new that they don't know better.

"* ROLEPLAYING is required. All communication between characters is In
Character (IC), including TELLs, NOTEs, etc. See also OOC.

...

* Characters created strictly to annoy others will be removed."

From help language :

"LANGUAGE (1152)

Here on Carrion Fields, we strive to maintain a consistent, fantasy themed
atmosphere. As such, we expect you to speak as your character would at all
times. While it is acceptable to have an "accent" consistent with your role
that shows up in how you spell your words, you should avoid speaking in
abbreviations, modern slang, and the like. If you wish to include a certain
emotional state, use the EMOTE command, and not "smileys" or other emoticons.
Examples:

(Good):
Garenth the surly dwarf says "Aye. I'm gonna dent m' mithril boot 'n the
filthy orc's skull, I tell ya."
Garenth scowls in anger, and slams his flagon down on the table.

(Not Good):
Bob the conjurer says "R U grouped? Kewl if your not, dude. =P""

How is this different from Pirate/Scottish accent dwarves?

Or do they make actual out of character comments? Did they Bel-Air you?

A wood-elf named a "Valley Elf" that talks in valley-speak is kinda immersion breaking. Is it any different than making a duergar named Danny Devito and asking people if he looks amused?

<TRIBUNAL> Danny : "What, am I some kind of clown here for your goddamn amusement?"

I'm just asking where the line is . It doesn't really bother me that much - assuming someone actually clarifies what is cool and what isn't, I actually posted this as a reaction to someone else pointing them out. It's sorta inline with a bard named 'Mike' and all the other asshattery RP trolling that goes on - what surprised me about this char was getting titled for it.

And for the record, I seriously considered writing a role which would be an elaborate excuse to drop Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes.

If everyone takes CF RP ultra seriously all the time... That's when things get lame.

If it is the character that got a special OOC title for it I don't think it bothers Imms. Although OOC stuff like that is annoying as #### in an immersive game like CF.

But then I played Fupplin.

Like...totally, don't you, like, think so? I laughed the first time I spoke with this person but I'm surprised they made it into hero range with that.
