I just started figuring out what all of this "RP" stuff is... bunch of nonsense if you ask me - you can chuck it all, or...
"Succat glared around at all of the non-paraholics filling the chambers from every side of the non-paraholic cavern. Luckily, every drink being served was spiked with poisonous parahol that would cause even Citanest to slump into a wriggled heap by the end of the night. QnanG5284 and Saypin each stood, holding their own (empty) mugs, toasting with the others and jesting, but were no doubt thinking murderous thoughts behind their smiling masks. One Drunk stumbled into the center of the gathering singing in a slurred Japanese dialect. Good thing only Succat could comprehend the lingo or all would be lost. It was a song about how the Para no longer held any power over a Warlock once that Warlock became Drunk enough off of their own power - it was quite disturbing to say the least. A dagger ought to do the trick, though. Just a few more hours and the fools would be in PARAdise... just a few more wriggling hours..."

*sigh* Well, I was right for all of 3 and a half hours anyway I suppose I should just make an RP Etiquitte post. If somebody else can point me to a good one somewhere else (or just wants to write one on their own) then feel free.

I'm totally calling dibs on the Professor. Maknud can be Gilligan.

exploding frogs is definitely the professor. xade is clearly ginger, and citanest must be the skipper.

Well, I'm Spanish, but i hope I can be able to follow most of the IC conversations... at least when directed to me ;D I'm absolutely up to the RP forum. Yeah! Darn lack of practice in English))

ha, look at that- they had a pie fight. Who'da thunk. Admit it though, you were all over that guy in the purple suit. Professor Plum I think his name was...

Part of the reason why I avoided the whole 'clan' thing was the liberty someone already took with my character early on in the process.
If you RP, you need rules against that sort of thing.

For the record, I was not raised on "traditional authority structures", and was never poisoned by the "no one can say what my character does in any roleplaying environment ever!" defense against bad GMs, so feel free to take creative liberties with "Maknud" as long as you don't feel like you're being a jerk, and I will notify you politely via PM if I feel you consistently go too far.
That was a bit inflammatory maybe? Meh, hopefully I've communicated exactly what I think.

I assume you are talking about the following passage from my little piece on the Black Orb, since it is the only time your name has been mentioned: I am very sorry that this has made you stay away from the league. I am, however, a bit baffled as to how a three-word question that anybody could have asked was taking liberties with your character. (In fact, I originally wrote that piece 8 or 9 months earlier, and originally that question was asked by a different warlock, who stopped being active in the league.)

It's an ownership and identity thing. 'My' question from that same thread felt a bit odd to me as well, but hey, it's all with the best intentions, right?

Perhaps it's just due to my past RP experiences, but it seems a little stupid to restrict the entire RP operation to one-person vignettes and speeches that make no mention whatsoever of the other characters.

Oh, agreed, but in general there's some setting rules and asking permissions first.
On that point, I'm with maknud. Use wastelin how you like, everyone: just don't expect me to be happy if I find myself doing unmentionable things with summoned monsters. Good taste, and all that.
