@Odin Indeed you are

@Lady Amalthea True that. *bows* Never thought about that m'lady.

@Odin That's a different opinion than I've seen.

@Caits I'm sorry I didn't post yet. I'll have the post up tonight, so you'll probably read it tomorrow (for you) :(

A question for my beloved guild colleagues

@Lady Amalthea I know what I've said and I did it for a purpose. Most people will not take seriously a hypothetical question reason why I usually present it as not a hypothetical question but as something I do.
True, some people will think that I was speaking the truth while others will understand/accept why I've presented it as a real thing.

A question for my beloved guild colleagues

Just finished reading everything. You've made a lot of good arguments and I have to agree they are better than "this is what means to play-by-post RPing means" arguments that I received from my friend.

I want to state that I don't do that. I like reading whatever other people wrote 'cause it's fun, it makes me become a better writer/reader etc. The discussion is purely hypothetical, for me at least.

Anyway. Thank you for taking time answering :)

A question for my beloved guild colleagues

@Lady Amalthea What you say it's true but what I'm thinking is that if character C sees A with a chicken head it's realistic to say that he shouldn't really know why character A wears that.
My angle (if you wanna call it like that) is that when I RP a character, I know what he knows, I see what he sees etc.

Also. You've made me think about the issue a little. Thank you for a complete answer.

@Ammokkx That should be done via a GM post, I think

A question for my beloved guild colleagues

Hello ! Thanks for taking time in reading this.

I was having a, I don't know how to call it. A discussion? A disagreement? Something when two people have different opinions on a subject, with a friend.

So I come here to ask what's your opinion on the subject. Maybe I am wrong, maybe he is.

The subject :

I am a firm believer that what happens in IC but that doesn't concern your character, nor is a GM post or something that affects the story but it is simply a discussion between other characters of the RP and your character is not even near those said characters, is not necessarily needed to read for a successful interaction with other characters.
Let me explain this better by giving an example :
My character will be called A and the other will be called B,C and D.
A talks with B in a room and C and D talk in another room that is nowhere near the room when A and B talk.

I was stressing the point that is not a must for a RPer to read discussion between C and D because :

• it may influence decisions later when A interacts with C and D unwillingly (subconscious mind or whatever you wanna call it)
• The RPer may learn information that A cannot know/should not know yet. Maybe C and D plan a murder and A and B are cops.
• I think I could give a few more examples but I think you get the idea.

So. I would like your opinions on this subject. Is it 100% needed for a RPer to read posts that don't concern your character, nor is a GM post or something that affects the story ?

I for one say that it's not a must. I personally read all the IC posts after some time, that is, of course when I'm not GMing that RP.
