Raynes are you loosing it or what? Saga is the name of the game. So put stuff about the game there. Roleplay is well, roleplay. Just post there. It only has three posts on it now. Thats probly why they want you to move. Nobody is useing it.

You did read this thread from the start didnt you......or are you one of those who only reads the last thread posted and draws every conclusion about the whole thread from it......because um I was refuring to Baldy and not to Raynes. I have nothing against Raynes....yet.

Now wait a second here, they told you to move your RP threads away from the Saga board? Then what about the board rules?

It says clearly that you are welcome to post about any events that you may be organising. And unless I've missed some, all the RP conversations in the Saga section were in response to a thread about a player-organised event (either the karavan convention or the attacks on tribes). The purpose of those threads was to notify everyone about these events, the RP conversations simply came about as responses to these.

Suggestion to allow both RPers and Vehement Anti RPers to post in the Saga (which is how I feel it should be, open to both, yet convenient/respectful of both).

The FIRST post that is for an event should contain ALL the info on who, what, where and how. Who-the sponsor or "host", What is happening, where, and when (please include time zone)

If this is JUST an RP event, it would help if that was noted in the title, ANTI RPers would then not even open it (and if they do open it and whine about the RPing, they should be ignored since they are OOC and not IC, therefore in that thread...they wouldn't exist). ANY RP event threads should be concidered OPEN ground for ANY and ALL RPing that any poster should choose to post, within the code of conduct. Just remember it is IC and don't get personal with the player...ONLY the character.

Just because there IS a role play section on the forum does NOT mean that that is the ONLY place that RPers should post RP, that just means that is where you should look first if you enjoy RP and want to participate. I see NO similarity between RPing and "off topic" in any section of any forum...this IS a role play game, by design.

Don't think that if others are RPing and you choose not to that they are "showing off" or that you are obligated to RP too. And like any thread, if you don't like the topic/thread...don't open it.
