#2450, "Why I hate roleplaying."


          

I can't say this in a mature way, because it'd take too long.


I'll just say this. All of my characters play a role consistantly. I don't do things which would compromise my role. I will stay IC and speak like a character in the world of Carrionfields would speak.

I refuse to perform for "RP staff". I refuse to make "RP" emote alias' to prove I'm a consistant roleplayer. I think people who use "fluff" to draw attention to themselves are attention-whores and should be dispatched if it's at all ICly reasonable (Mree!, Deary, *snarling*.. I'm talking to you types)

I think immortals judging roleplay is silly. I think staying IC and living your role through your actions is "GOOD RP". I think the rest is just a lame excuse for imms to reward people they like and #### on people they don't.



I'm glad that I've never seen a character become a PVP powerhouse because of "RP rewards".... So I think the system works pretty good. I would only get concerned if a PC's power potential relied on an RP-elitist's approval. That would suck.
