SinvadersNeither is having one group of players tell everyone else, "If you do not play the way I play then you are not welcome/allowed here!", especially not when that group of players is so offensive that they drive players from the game in droves. And if you find tolerance offensive enough that you would uninstall a game over being told you cannot control other humans, then that's on you.Allowing players to do whatever they want ... is not a way for designing a game.
I don't see what your sentence as to do with mine. I'm talking about game design in this one not about players behavior nor player being RP or non-RP.
You basically need gameplay restriction to orientate players, to give them a general direction about how "this thing" should be played.
But I believe, you will prefer to ask people to uninstall the game rather than ... well you know.
And to answer another part of your message: I do know many players (and more than you might think) who left the game because RP is dead as well as the game backgrounds being "meh" (to stay polite).
