This is a key line, I believe.
IF you are an RPer who prefers to mainly RP within your LS -- and that's awesome if you are! No judgements! -- then you may never see a problem.
But IF you are an RPer who interacts with a broad spectrum of people, it's going to wind up being very limiting to, as the OP said,
Quote:I would just make those characters not exist to my character within the RP.
It's going to wind up being limiting more to yourself, than anyone else; but moreover, it's just rude. How do you know that their RP conflicts with yours right away? You don't.
So if you and I, for example, are in an RP interaction, we might interact on and off casually for weeks before a conflict of storylines comes up. Do you suddenly *blink* that RP out of existence?
However, if - as I said above - you prefer to limit your RP primarily to your LS and very close friends, you may never experience a problem. Just be aware that problems could arise, and you're just as much responsible for handling them respectfully as anyone else is.
