I only played for a month or so after the merge (I'm in a line of work now that keeps me away from stable internet for long periods of time), but I did play on Arispotle for some years before the merge. 

I can't speak for Leanon, but that's pretty much it for Arispotle. Extrtemist/Confrontational RP didn't exist in Arispotle and was often frowned upon because most folks in Arispotle did not understand the difference between IC and OOC, between the character being roleplayed and the real person behind the keyboard. 

Most people on Aris seemed to refer to "RP" or to be "roleplaying" their character, but in fact the toons were  just the extensions of the player's feelings, thoughts, personality, etc. So everything you said IC was taken personally, RP was used as an excuse for factions or guilds to take over all resources and so on. 

Even the event team on Aris was criticized a lot and attacked by players, because the whole concept of RP and dynamic player driven events was not fully understood. I know some good RPers who just gave up on it after a while. 

So in the end this whole thing of kamis and karas cooperating and coexisting in peace created a pretty good and friendly atmosphere to play in, I won't deny that, but it caused genuine confrontational RP to be frowned upon and misunderstood. 

I applaud the french players from Aniro for their extremist/confrontational RP, because conflict is what drives RP and good stories, what makes playing a role that much more interesting. Not just the cliche of fyros and matis insulting each other, but real political intrigue between the governments, sanctions, diplomatic tension, etc.
