Question to Role-Players

[Enkidoh]

I don't really need a RP server - I role-play well enough on my existing server (but then I've never been one for being in character 24/7 though, hence I usually avoid dedicated RP servers in MMOs, just so that it's up to me when I'm in character or not - I hate games which virtually enforce you to be in character at all times).

So it doesn't worry me too much if SE doesn't go ahead with adding an official RP server to the game - the game's RP community seem to have gotten along fine without it anyway.

Not trying to argue anything, but i really have to wonder where people have played or what they've heard to make them think that RP servers are all in-character, all the time.

I don't think i've ever played a game that tried to enforce this, whether from the company or the players at large. Every RP server i've ever played on has mainly just been a tag that basically said "Role-players should gather here", and then everyone did their thing whether it was Heavy-RP groups or Light-RP groups.
*You'd always have the RP extremists that tend to get pissy if someone isn't RP'ing their way, but those guys usually quiet down when they realize people won't be bullied to do things their way.

I dunno if i've been lucky, or if others unlucky...
