That said, I've seen just as many people proclaim that roleplay is griefing/bullying/whathaveyou in order to smear the reputations of people, just because it handed their character a minor L (or no L at all and just made them mad).
Any pk in an open PK zone is reasonable. When you enter one, you're cosigning any and all methods of player-driven death you could experience in there.
I mean, for what it's worth, I think Open PK bashing zones are absolutely stupid. I c…
Ganking is fine, gank away. It's an established rule that you get PK on anybody in a gank squad (save for Open PK zones) and people team up because they wanna win (aformentioned valid reason). It's fine. Keep ganking idgaf.

There's definitely an incentive--had I not hoarded chocolates and other buffs in advance for the GH, I totally would've done Iron Man. The incentive is that it's a smaller pool of people bashing, your chance is a lot higher to place, and yo…

Outstanding, you're going for a Bad Discourse Triplet it seems. Are you taking requests? 'cause you've covered Sealioning and tone policing already. Gaslighting is always a big hit.
Hot take: you don't have to perfectly understand a situation in order to roleplay in it, OOC or otherwise. Being a human being is all about acting on limited information and our cognitive biases and blindnesses. So, honestly, I never consider it too…
Casual chop-busting aside, this is def a problem game-wide, no side is without sin--that doesn't mean we should accept that it's okay. I've definitely seen plenty of people sanctimoniously dismiss the Shadow Tether as wholesale toxic because of

What a horrible comparison. Shouts are easier to opt out of than SAYs are--SHOUTSOFF my guy. It's more akin to opting out of a city channel. Does it make it awkward when gods join the fray? Sure. Consequence you face of ignoring shouts. Or …
I don't think they hate people powerbashing newbs. I'm personally not the greatest fan of it, but if they hated it, group xp share would be a lot worse than it is.

Yeah, I'm really happy they scaled back the penalty on Warden/Carnifex, but I don't overall agree with really any of the end/wp changes, other than reducing the syssin one (because holy hell their cost was high). One of the arguments for ra…
lol with the extremely insane 66% increase in endurance use in Carnifex, it's going to make doing Ironman Mode an absolute chore for anybody in Warden/Carnifex. Gonna have to take a nap every 30 minutes.
Being in a situation that's very frustrating to you as a player, but your character's personality means they generally wouldn't care at all. It makes it hard to act authentically when you just wanna quit an org or something out of frustration, but y…
When someone shows romantic interest in your character and then in short order tries to talk to you OOC in some familiar way. Like, on the one hand, I kinda get wanting to just talk about RP with people (I do that all the time with some folk I knowi…

I will say, on this note, even though it's not really fully on topic with the thread, but every time I think about possibly approaching Ruq for RP, you're fishing or doing beetles; that's perfectly great and dandy! That said, in this game i…

I think it's alright to deviate from mandated cultures for guilds, probably even quite a bit. Still, there's probably a reasonable limit to how far that can go. The Dominion is never going to be able to swing a philosophical switch where th…

This is ostensibly a good suggestion, but there are definitely organizations that are in a place where they trickle out new members at a steady-but-slow-enough rate (their outflow numbers probably don't actually look all that bad on paper i…
I'm not sure how the Teradrim Aren't Warlike ethos ever survived; their entire foundational lore is that they're the jailors of some of the most dangerous entities to ever exist (Both the Sorcerer-Kings and Baugluckgluck9000), as well as prot…
