This whole thread is much ado about nothing.

I play on Besaid, I don't RP. The RPists never force their brand of game-play on me and it doesn't impact my playing experience whatsoever. If you team up with a role player their goals are the same as yours: to progress. Let them have their fun as it is absolutely harmless and confined to their own LS. This is a total non-issue.

I can't believe this thread has gone on for 35 pages. If you people didn't post and reply to such drivel there would be much more constructive discussions going on in this forum.
