Friends? Foes? Homins?

Your answer prove clearly that it's not "Lilz" that is playing but the player behind the screen. Some people are attached to the unique role play of Ryzom. Giving a life, a story to his toon. Playing the backround of the game like faction wars ( yes, if you dont know, Karavan and Kamis aren't friends, so if you choose one of those side you just cant play with the other, well you can but if you are a RP player, you wont, because your toon wont do it.

So it's not that players are unfriendly or something, it's just that they play differently than you.
Hope you will be able to see the difference. As player can be friends but not necessarily the toons :).

When Bittty was young he read the scriptures of both the Karavan and the Kamis. He read the Ten Commandments of Jena and the 8 revelations of Ma-Duk and the commentary thereon by Disciples and Sages. ((OOC: See information on http://bmsite.net and http://en.ryzomnomnom..com/wiki/Kami and http://en.ryzomnomnom..com/wiki/Karavan. Translations exist in other languages as well.)) He became a Karvan when young because his "father" was a Kami and Bittty blamed his father for leaving him in the refugee village to come to the new lands. Since the Second Swarming and the apparent inability of either the Kami or the Karavan to stop it, he has ceased to be associated with either the Kami or the Karavan as a church and has since then studied to become a Ranger.

However, even before that time, he noted that *neither* the Kami Revelations *nor* the Karavan Commandments said anywhere that he could not interact with those of the opposite Cult. In fact the opposite is true -- both churches command their followers to proselytize, to win over deluded homins ("deluded" being defined by "belonging to the other cult"). Therefore, even as a Karavan and a Tryker, he would help any homin who was in need.

The extremist position of "thou shalt not interact" is nowhere justified in the scriptures. That some homins take it to such extremes saddens Bittty, but they are free homins under the light of Jena. This does not mean that his belief and his actions are any less (or any more).

(( Maxxye (and I speak from behind the keyboard to you behind the keyboard): do not assume that because someone disagrees with your interpretation of the Lore that they are somehow not seriously role-playing their avatar. You have no more claim to being "right" than they do. In addition, if someone chooses not to roleplay to the extent that you do, they have the right to look at the results of your kind of roleplay and criticize it on the basis of how that affects the game, just as you have the right to look at the results of their type of roleplay and criticize it on the basis of how you see it affecting the game.))
