* secondly I want to keep discussions IC because I cannot stand having fights OOC. Having to take being picked on OOC like it has happened in this very thread here too often would or maybe will quickly drive me out of political roleplay - and perhaps even out of the game Ryzom soon afterwards. Because I rarely play Ryzom for anything else than for RP at Events and Assemblies. As everyone else I am paying to play this game to have fun, not to have my gaming fun ruined.
It is nearly unbearable for me to read that Feylins player does not want to tolerate/integrate roleplaying-specifics of other servers (specifics that allow more players to take part in RP-politics as is desperately needed), to read him/her bend my words (like about "votings") and ask me to "explain in detail" what s/he as a player already knows very well (because of having heared what Zhoi suggested at Assemblies for the benefit of the Theocracy and her work for Taki Zorai; even though she certainly has done even more services for the Nation of the Zorai in the past as well during two RL-years as should be expected).
It was also nearly unbearable to hear Icus' player mocking me OOC during a Tryker-Assembly. OOC I cannot even stand the fact that Icus' player told Nyenors player (who has left the game a while ago by the way...) not to describe a Leanon-specific event in the Forum: while he himself pointed out many times since then that Matis had broken the treaty of the four people and other things that happened only on Aniro afterwards. Even after he was asked by a bunch of players to show more consideration for players histories from other servers (I do not know how the war-event went on Arispotle; maybe the Matis never broke any treaties on Ari?).
If it's "only" an RP-conflict though, then I can take it just fine; since I do not suspect players of being unfair easily and I do not have to take rude IC-words at heart if just mentioned during a dialogue between fictive characters. Yes, I love playing a "bureaucrat". You got that exactly right. And of course every character has a certain personality with their own weaknesses. I enjoy this a lot.
That's why I think it is highly unfair to make me want to change my way of roleplaying. Why do people have to pick on that? Why do people try to force my character to speak differently IC, write in a different/shorter way IC, change my character's view of the world (imposing another "past" on her like a war that she has never experienced), try to make her adapt a certain interpretation of the lore other than her own way of thinking, try to change her status (forcing her to become a "real" Initiate, opposing her Honorary Initiate title that she has worked hard for and still does), rudely ignore Zhois logical IC-reasons and experiences? Not merely IC as an interesting discussion, but OOC coming from other players?!
My roleplaying has never hurt anyone. I'm trying my best to be as considerate as I can and as is still logical, even during fights; OOC and also IC. Why do they have to try and ruin the fun that I find in playing Ryzom by critizising every little thing about my roleplaying they can find, even though it does not offend them in any way? It makes me deeply frustrated.
