Whoa, what a long thread this has gotten in such a short time - until I found it just right now. O_o
First of all: no, I did not feel offended OOC by Feylins player as a player up until now.
Alright; at one time I did not really enjoy the way s/he phrased things when asking me as a "compromise" - which was phrased in a rather demanding way - to write translations into the regional channel at the Ranger's "Assembly". Fortunately no German translation was needed, so I lucked out and did not have to oppose Feylins player. Or was it "unfortunately"? Because it surely indicates that only those German-speaking players who can understand English well enough are still attending to international Events nowadays...
Well, I have also somehow known that Feylin's discontent with Zhoi being an Honorary Initiate might not be fully IC too, since I heard someone saying "being an Initiate might be a disadvantage in gameplay to you, but ...". That might have been one of the many reasons for me to refuse making Zhoi into an Initiate when starting with political roleplay - in February 2011 when still wanting to do all rites and building up fame with all tribes. But that has changed already, most especially since the server-merge and the set-back of fame.
The reasons for Zhoi to not strive to become an Awakened are purely IC now. And Feylins player knows.
Still I did not hold this against Feylins player, we're all just humans and not perfect. Everyone makes mistakes.
Instead I - still - do appreciate the roleplaying of Feylins player. I have to point out that s/he has never ever used dirty OOC-tricks during roleplaying, s/he has never tried to impose the server-history of Aniro onto others, s/he has never made mocking OOC-comments and so on. I appreciate her/his work on Taki Zorai and admire her/his Lore-knowledge, even though we might advocate different individual interpretations of course :)
The player of Sartyrica has a rather hard time with having to talk English as it seems. Even though s/he is not bad at it in reality, fast talking is a bit too much to ask. S/he needs some time to phrase things. I really don't know what to do about this, but I still do feel sad that s/he is not having fun with the Assemblies now, even though many more Homins are attending to them than on Leanon during its last months :(
