Just take a good hard look at what you just wrote & then the problems that players that grief RPers bring with them.

You know exactly what I mean when I make the PvP server comparison. Just because theyâre gone doesnât mean you donât know what they are.
And yes, you do make what about comments. âWhat about my friend!? He never griefed anyone!?â

Ive experienced it yes, but Iâm also not the only one by a mile-shot whoâs spoken up about this being a fairly common sight and occurance neither now or before.
Youâre getting kinda close to Athramus-posting with this response (Claiming that because you yourself hasnt seen the super common thing everyone else has, then its wrong/misstaken)

Interesting dichotomy with this guy.
You experience griefing and negative interactions with OOCers? âThatâs just, like, your experience man.â
âMy friend never griefed anyone.â Is his experience, but we should just take that at face value and accept that OOCers are good and welcome.

This is why I called/call it Athramus posting, since when litterally the same topic was discussed a while ago, said person said that he personally had never been griefed when RPing, and therefore the logical conclusion was that people who told about it happening to them from DB and Shaâtar were either lying or misremembering/overexaggerating.

âMy experience is to be taken as gospel, but your experience is discounted even with evidence.â
Iâve seen that level of entitlement across the internet and itâs certainly not welcome here either.

at the end of the day, broadblade, just because you and your friends joined the server for unknown reasons and just happened to get into roleplay eventually - does not suddenly mean that all OOC-exclusive players are suddenly part of the solution
you, and people like you, are exceptions to the rule - shouldnât have even been on a server designed for roleplay in the first place, but adapted for whatever reason

To be fair and this is only my âbadâ experience, Iâve encountered an equal amount of trolling and disrupting from RPers with some grudge, as I have from pure OOCers.
That said mounts are just obnoxious as are the folks who park or pose with them in RP hubs.
Yeah those should get booted off also i say shruggingly

Griefing just isnât okay at all, I donât think anyone is denying this(Except certain OOCers)
There are people who fill in their TRPs with information, create a background for the character and so on while never actually roleplaying.
One statement Iâve seen come up/be made several times now seems like such a non-point to me. If youâre ignorant about RP (as in, you have no idea what it is â I personally didnât since I was very young when I first played WoW), youâre not really part of the âproblemâ as far as OOCers go. If you donât know what it is, simply say so and Iâm sure the majority will be willing to teach you how to RP or explain what RP actually means. Nobodyâs excluding new players by telling them to leave if theyâre simply unaware, as long as theyâre willing to learn.
The issue, however, arises when people arenât ignorant and still donât care about or want to try RP. At that point theyâre just deliberately choosing to ignore what this server was made for, and should just change to a different one.

The funny thing about this is, while their gross overreactions and slurs are obviously not warranted, this made me think of a perfect example of the very problem at hand, except in reverse, and it makes it very clear.
Being full on IC in a BG, that is walking around and emoting and stuff, is just as silly as coming to an RP realm while not doing the above.
Itâs like a mirror.
Some of you need to take chill pill, like seriously.
No one will boot OOC players, accept it or not that is a fact, its amazing that some of you think that Blizzard will go on OOC player purge lolâŚ
I never said anything about walking around and emoting.
No-one will stop people posting that OOC players should go either so it looks like neither party will get what they want =P

I know, I know. I didnât accuse you of doing so. It just made me think of the comparison.
IC chatter in BG chat is no more harmful than OOC chatter in party chat on AD.
Fixed wording.
woah its almost as if this is a public forum and we can post our opinions freely
