MMORPG =/= RPG =/= Tabletop RPG =/= Textbased RPG

I roleplay now for like 14 years, every week. Multiple hours with friends and often with strangers in open events and also play tabletop rpgs. Just cause it is labeled as a rpg doesn't mean you can force your idea of an rpg on other players, on common ground you have to be neutral. It's the same as if a glamour maniac just goes out of his way and whispers to you how you can improve your glamour and sends you messages for this for hours. Or a person that found the meaning of life in housing entering your home and lecturing you about feng shui. Most people don't want to deal with that so don't be rude to strangers by forcing your ideals on them.

And i can say, among all serious roleplayers out there this what OP described is basically a No-Go in our scene and even we like it when we get quick through the dungeons. We don't force what we enjoy onto others, especially with strangers.

If you want to go through a dungeon in character find yourself a group for it and don't just be impolite towards other players.
