It's not "don't do what I don't like", since you're perfectly free to RP in private/designated places/channels and I don't mind at all. It's "don't be rude and force me to see what you are doing when I don't want to see it." It's called respecting others.

Hearing people talk to each other quietly as you pass them is very different from hearing them recite a script, badly and loudly, right next to you while you're standing there trying to buy groceries. Most people would find that very rude.
Spamming emotes or messages in chat count as harassment, yeah, but mods aren't going to bother anyone RPing in /say or /em unless they’re getting vulgar. Besides, /say isn’t shouting in public, its talking. If you're getting this annoyed by people talking to each other in a city, area chat must drive you up a wall lol
