SE, please designate a Role Play friendly server!

And I was saying how OOC shouts annoy me too, what's the point?

I don't think anyone is asking for anything special here, especially not me in the OP. An RP server is common in MMOs these days. >_>

Blacklist is your friend in both instances.

also, i dont tell them to shut up or anything, i troll the hell out of them in game when they do it in public, i know how hard it is for RPists to ignore what people are saying and they just have to read it soitalklikethisandidoitinsuchawayastowhereiamactualytalkingtothemandgivethemaheadacheandmakethemmovesomewhereelse

"He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no-one had a chance to interrupt; it was really quite hypnotic."

Yes I understood what you said, Foxbat. You were talking about courtesy in public areas and how some RPers shout or speak where it's crowded, and that annoys you... it's not that hard to figure it out.

I don't think you absorbed anything from what I told you though. Do you also tell non-RPers to keep their conversations to themselves, mind the chatter in camps, not to use shout, troll them if they do? Because if so, while I wouldn't agree with you entirely, I'd commend you for being consistent.

If not, then you have double-standards. If you're inconsiderate of RPers being in-character who are annoyed by out of character chatter in public areas, don't expect them to bend the knee to accommodate your specific preferences of public conversation.

If you don't have to think twice to /say at a camp site at the crystal, why should I?

I know this may be a foreign notion, but as a third alternative you could also try asking politely if they might either take their in-character conversation elsewhere, or otherwise utilize more private channels such as /p or /t. While a small few might take offense at this, I have found that the vast majority are pleasant individuals who are not trying to upset anyone's gameplay and would be glad to oblige the request so long as they were addressed in a respectful manner. Conversely, I think it's fair to say that a lot of people (not just RPers) would just blacklist your disruptive gibberish and continue doing what they're doing.

I know it's ever so slightly off topic, but... why have people taken to calling Role Players, RPists. Wouldn't the RPist be a person who persecutes roleplayers based on their existance?

Like a sexist, or a racist?

I mean, come on, it's not like you call Gamers, Gamists. And that would be really awkward for Racers. wouldn't you say?

The term probably was created like all terms are, without visible rhyme or reason. Truth to be told i'm a BIT bugged by it because it's just one 'a' letter away from something REALLY bad and as hilarious as it is, actually because it is so hilarious, it makes reading phrases with that term a bit jarring. (not- trying to raise a stink here just commenting that whenever I see that phrase I have to stop and laugh and restart reading because god, it's so wrong)

the origins of RPists come from another game, i wont say why or how, though i know the reasons(if you know where and how props to you!)

im the one who started calling people RPists here and its kinda ctaching on lol

Ah, no wonder it makes no sense.
