What is your view on RP or ERP and why is it so taboo within the community?

[Nezerius]

I am not the one reporting people, I said and I wish people would read today, you shouldn't be surprised if you get reported and then come to the forums and complain about it.

No one should be surprised about getting reported, if they harass another player. Normal RP doesn't count as harassment, just like people simply talking to each other near you doesn't count as harassment.

This entitlement of we're role players and can do whatever we want, should be the measurement for everybody then, meaning if you bother somebody with it, especially with ERP in regular chat since this game isn't X rated, you can not say that it was unjust.

No one is saying that RPers are entitled to do whatever they want, they can do whatever any normal players wants to do, including normal RP. The majority of the RPers also agree that ERP should be done in private channels.

I even mentioned in my first post that I seriously don't care what people do, as long as it isn't in my face, and yes I do reserve the right to say that, just like RP'ers think they have the right to tell us, that they are allowed to do it anywhere and we should just black list them or walk away.

If a few RPers just decide to walk up to you, and start RPing right next to you, as a way to harass you, then you're in the right (unless you happen to stand near a RP hotspot, but I don't think those are as common outside of Balmung). If you simple walk past a few RPers, and one just happens to have just typed text in /s, I wouldn't really see that as "in your face".
