I'm feeling similarly.... I've too many alts, now, as is.... and anchored to Couerl. I wouldn't be a very reliable group-RPer, even though I've interest in seeing what it's like to RP using FFXIV in particular as a medium ._.

What if we got a kickline of taru popotos to dance for you and make you cookies? :O

You'd leave a server over people RPing?

Bit much.

Just because you don't see it happen doesn't mean it doesn't.

Well that's the childish move ever. If you don't like then why you bother?

And I don't know any JP player who into RP, also I don't know what is the meaning of roleplay. Could someone explain it to me thanks :)

Personally, as a role player, I have exactly three macros that have absolutely nothing to do with RP. It is literally just flavor text for my Dragoons three limit breaks.

Lb1 = terminus pride
Lb2 = savage wolf fury
lb3 = bunshin soutenha

This has less to do with RP and more to do with me being a massive Tales of whore.

Honestly, if you're afraid of 'RP' macros in duty, please realize that being on a different server will not "protect" you from this while using DF. You might get paired with an "***hole" like me.

Not everyone likes to have their chat box spammed with RP when they go to a public area. If people do it in private or keep it to linkshells I don't care, but in /say, no thank you. That would be my concern more than macros. Luckily my server doesn't really have any.

Since this is really the only argument people have against RP in their servers, there is an incredibly easy solution to it. You are provided with a fourth, completely customizable chat filter. Go into settings, turn off the /say, custom emote, and maybe yell options. Name it "NO RP EVER". See RP happening around you? Switch to your new, RP-free channel. Boom, your chat is no longer "spammed".

Roleplay is when players create an entire history and story for their characters, and proceed to play it out with others in chat channels. You basically assign your character a personality, and have them interact with other characters with personalities. You can sort of think of it as a real-time pick your own adventure novel that you help write.

And how would this news affect login queues I wonder.

As someone who Role-plays on Mateus, I can tell you that almost never happens. Most roleplay is done in cities like Ul'dah, at the Quicksand.

Could you provide some examples of this?

We are in the age of Necromancy!

People should've been REALLY bored and scrolled many pages to bump this thread from 2015 lol

I was like "hey there was already RP on siren" then I saw the date.

I wonder if something is going on with the forums. There was a mini game topic that I saw on the front page and so I responded to it, and then I went into the thread and.. well it looked like I revived the thing @_@. I was caught off guard like, how.. how is that possible? I never dive past 5 pages, usually because I'm on top of reading them but even if not its like... nobody has time to read that much XD.

Maybe something is going on and some people are getting fed old stuff somehow? I mean my issue could be something else, like perhaps a GM deleted a comment from a resurrection as I responded to it.. but I checked my view history just to make sure I didn't accidentally click on page 500.. no.. it was front page for me lol. At least it was a topic I liked :3.

Wonder if these other people are getting that too, but it could just be a bunch of different cases and not related of course.

I think people are googling things and finding old threads without seeing how old they are and then replying to them with their own experience or to something, but it does seem to be happening a lot lately.

Ye... no. Greg server was pretty RP heavy before a ton of people fled to Balmung, many of whom did so to get away from one guy that only just followd them anyway (before he felt so unwelcome that he came back to Greg). Now Gilgamesh is just in denial, all the while the aetheryte in Limsa is surrounded by such . . . lovely people.

And then there's Levi where, apparently, there's a RP brothel, or was one some time ago; it made a substantial amount of money before an article was written about it. I'm sure other examples exist. Call Mateus the third RP server is inaccurate for that alone.

Mind you, I'm also unsure of the dates one these things, especially compared to this topic's conception.
