Role-players in Dungeons

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

I have a very low expectation in DF runs so people RP’ing in my run isn’t an issue so long they do not hinder the group severely.

There had been only 2 times I’ve encountered somebody RP’ing in run since my day 1:
• That SCH who had a fight with Lily, henceforth refuses to summon fairy for the entire length of Skalla duty. This one wasn’t rough because the SCH was pretty capable themselves to perform decently without fae.
• That WAR(?) in pre 6.1 Praetorium who made the entire monologue sections pretty entertaining to read. The sound effects used was a bit obnoxious but it’s not like there’s anything else to watch in MSR lol.

Alright, I lied, I HAVE seen once or twice some schmucks make rp comments during a dungeon roulette. But they have NEVER, EVER, EVER, EEEEEEVER slowly walk or halt our progress just because they were rp'ing.

Dont be fooled people, OP is lying to your face and you're all eating it up.

How is this even a thing? I can understand RPing as a concept, and I really don't have a problem with people that choose to engage in it for the most part. What I can't figure out is why a minority of them genuinely seem to believe it's fine to progress at the speed of smell through dungeons, oft times with walk enabled, and waste time emoting betwixed themselves. When first encountering this back in the day, I assumed it was people griefing. And y'know, I'm sure some of these instances have been. ..But not all of them, which is where my lack of understanding comes into play.

Ya'll wanna turn on your RP tags and emote or whatever, that's fine - do it between pulls, not mid-pull. And for the love of Zodiark, turn walk off. Good hell.

You can actually report them for harrashment and hindering in completion of the content.

Also... if for RP reasons want to do, people should do it with people on the same page and not just waste other peoples time that want to get through the place as quick as possible.

I had a guy do this once in Crystalline Conflict which needless to say didn't really amuse me too much. After almost 2k roulettes I think I've seen people actually RP at all maybe 5 times. Pretty rare and most of them just type some random chat gibberish, I think I have only ever had 1 guy that i can remember doing the RP walk. I assume no-DPS healers are just idiots rather than RPers.

Occasionally I will role play as a highly skilled player in dungeons, Very occasionally.
