people love lighthearted RP, you just can't be OD with it and you can't necessarily expect them to play along.

me too. thought about it a bit. adding maybe an "Antonican" language for some of the humans/barbs. it would have been cool to see what lingua francas would have developped [You must be logged in to view images.

I always RP my ogre "lightheartedly". And "smell my finger" never gets old.

Role-playing took a really big hit in the early 2000s when it became widely known that basenent dwelling sloths were mostly role-playing every female avatar in mmorpgs.

It hurt role-playing decisively and effectively because they were also so good at it.

a p99 roleplay server is the only thing that could have less of a population than red99

There is a guy in our guild who, as far as I can tell, never breaks RP. He isn’t scared to pipe up either. If someone says good night before logging off you’ll see the standard “g’night!”, “cya”, “night”, then he’ll pop in with “So long, brave Talon! May your rest be undisturbed and your dreams filled with peace.” Always gives me a chuckle reading that. Mainly I feel bad for him though, as the RP is never reciprocated.

Haha. Awesome. That’s a way more fun way to give away stuff.

I’m probably gonna roleplay it too from now on.

Cecily glares at you.
