A Comfortable Room
[Chilly]
A plethora of gaily coloured silk pillows with fringes and tassels
completely conceal the floor. A large pillow in the corner stands out, a
brooding black mass of velvet and fringeless. Screens of nature scenes
painted with the spare strokes of a brush that hint at and outline the
subjects, leaving much to the imagination. Behind the screens, silk
curtains and sheets painted with bright patterns hide the walls, pulled
back only around the windows that pierce the southern and western walls to
look out over a lush garden filled with an untamed riot of plants and
trees.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Azarial states, "I've never figured out how to realistically price the time I put in here compared to 'normal' programming jobs. it...seemed like it demeaned the work somehow."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed ponders.

Kinaed claims, "The next topic is a bit sensitive."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor arches his brow as he considers what this could mean

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "I've had some talks with RPers who have come to TI from other RP games (specifically MUSH backgrounds) and found RP on TI not their cup of tea. I asked them a few questions around why they left, and it has to do with inconsistent RP etiquette."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed states, "But I think it's inappropriate for me to throw up a help file on RP etiquette and expect people to follow it."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Safir has lost link.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A person wearing a mask depicting a sunrise with a voluminous black silk monastic cowl with wide sleeves asks, "I come from MUSH environments, and I have no problem with RP Etiquette. Can you be more specific, Kinaed?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "I thought maybe we should come up with an agreement about what we consider being polite during RP to one another, which I'd put in a help file."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor questions, "Was it so much a matter of rudeness as in word wise or the way rp happened?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed claims, "Specifically, things like setting the scene for people when they come into a room, walking out of a room without emoting (when not travelling) or acknowledging other people, turns, stuff like that. "

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Takta claims, "Hrm. Problem being we all come from such different traditions... what some folks consider necessary others just do not care about or even care for. For me, there aren't any hard and fast rules except for no passive-aggressive posing and just properly 'responding' to others."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed claims, "I think it's more about our genre of games tends to have a game-by-game set of expectations."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Safir has reconnected.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "TI doesn't really have any established rules other than we don't turn unless asked to, but if we're asked to, we turn."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes states, "My experience is that we usually kind of naturally follow that rule, anyways, for the most part"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Takta says, "I think it should be fine to move on through a room without emoting if there's an OOC check/comment. 'Hey, just moving through, sorry'."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Kinaed nods at a young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A person wearing a mask depicting a sunrise with a voluminous black silk monastic cowl with wide sleeves states, "Yeah, I do not understand those remarks, Kinaed. I mean, I understand what you are saying, I just do not understand the logic or that statement as a motive to leave the game."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "It has been for at least one new player whom I spoke with."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Temi claims, "Not that anyone is actually being rude."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Temi claims, "Just that people don't know what to expect for ettiquette."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "I don't think anyone is trying to be rude, but I think their perception is that it was a rude experience."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Kinaed nods at Temi.

Takta queries, "Did that person cite a specific piece of etiquette?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A tiny, flimsy woman muses, "Since this comes from some leaving the game over it, what more specifically was the RP-styles they had issues with?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Temi states, "So we're trying to write down what we do live by."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Kinaed nods at Temi.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "For them, it was not having the scene set and "being acknowledged before they'd had a time to take in what was happening so they could form a pose""

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor nods "I will be honest that given this is my first mud and never played a game like this before that i am kinda of oblivious to other types of rp on different game. And i agree with takta.. if your passing through say something oocly for people don't prepare a pose then have it wasted when you leave suddenly

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes trails off, "So, in all seriousness, they got pissed about being spoken to...to quickly"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes says, "Rofl"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor asks, "Wait.. a scene set? really?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed claims, "Ie, if someone walks into a room, having other people react to their presence before they could figure out what was going on. I got the impression they're used to OOCly walking into a room, then slotting in."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Takta says, "Gonna be blunt: I think this is that person's individual problem for expecting a MUD to follow MUSH rules."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed states, "Remember, we're talking about different game cultures here."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor says, "Yeah i agree with takta here.. "

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Azarial states, "That sounds like it would mix ic and ooc too much for how we prefer to operate"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Aios claims, "Yeah, I always thought you were supposed to scene set specifically so people DO know what's going on when they come in."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed queries, "It might, but wouldn't it be good to have a help file about what we expect so we tell new people what to expect when they come on board?"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Takta states, "I DO like scene-setting as an approach, but it almost requires turns."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Delilah appears in swirl of fog, thunder sounding throughout the area lightning streaking through the clouds. [OOC]

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Kinaed says, "This isnt' about who is right or wrong, it's about retaining players who want to RP."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Arynon claims, "Usually with those i've rp'd with, if someone walks into a room, EVERYONE sets actions to the current scene, I don't know how much more they want the scene set"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

A young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes claims, "Can't tell you how many times i've had people immediately do actions so i knew what was going on"

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
Aios nods at Kinaed.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)
A young woman with chestnut hair and ice-blue eyes nods at Arynon.

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:rested P:walk] (action)

Seymor nods in agreement with arynon
