I have NO inkling where you think I feel justified by, in approval, or in agreement with you. If I did, why would I be arguing with you?

Now let me address the RP. I am NOT a paragon of RP or PK in any way shape or form. Sadly a paragon of PK is seen as a paragon of RP too often but that is not the issue at hand. I AM one who knows damn good RP and RP atmosphere when I see it because I HAVE seen it.

I remember Valg's mortal Lich spreading plague and doom throughout Thera and a stern wise Warlock summoning a gentle Acolyte to cure me while I lay dying in Galadon from it and then helped me find my way to a safe place. Not enough players for a low level player to experience that often enough. Not enough players for there ever to be a hope to stop a Lich as well played as Valg's was.

My character at that time went on to become a maran, was liked, got a fair bit of good byes and way to try when I con died! Now it is all about item envy, and PK stats. Heck Rogues reply to mine was filled with bias about PK and the like. Pmenoa did use introspection, gave a damn about NPCs and VNPCs alike, always balanced actions with respect to what I could glean off of the helpfiles. I used an alias to set up think as 'tell self' just so I could roleplay whether alone or otherwise. Pmenoa went off to fight evil , almost every chance he got, as a Maran, he failed miserably, not his faul but mine because I am not a STELLAR pker. I followed the High Elf and Maran guildlines to a T only to get the crappy end of the RP stick handed to me. Not cool.

Dorn, I had barely any interactions with, and from what I read he had no idea of what happened. Rogue, well let us look at this thread for what my take on Rogue's judgement. Gnome boy blatantly abused my character IC and OOC and worse was the type of Killer Gnome that was mentioned previously, please make up your minds on that, you want to take his word yet you despise his time of character? Whilath calls the pot black being the kettle. etc.

Now to my RP again. It was neutered, destroyed, and mangled by a level of politicking and mandate ignoring within the Fortress beyond anything I could believe exist. I clearly pointed that out, with appropriate quotes from the help files. And finally, Valg, you poll a favored pool for the foundation of your statement once again about my skill at roleplaying. Maybe if I had been the type to initiate mud sex with Eshana I would 3l33t.. but that ain't my thing and I was glad she wanted a love affair not smut.

I know I had excellent interactions with many in game and worked to make sure they did as well, if I could understand their character within the scope of Thera's atmosphere. My character was rude to selfish and bizarre version of goods, I will admit that but again according to the help files that is what a HIGH ELF would do. But people using OOC knowledge of Eshana to hit her up for gold and
similar things going on drove me nuts.

I asked, IC, if the two had met and NO they had not met in game. Wait a minute, that is no better than the issue this thread speaks of. In game stuff is icky because when there was a larger playerbase a bit of OOC collusions would get ironed out by a swift smacking by a group of skilled veterans. Now not only are they more predominant in the overall % due to lack of players, they are effecting the RP of CF dramatically.

I may rage against the storm, but I see the storm.
