"in which I ran around touching the butts of a multitude of characters in search for the luckiest butt in the Quicksand"
is rp to me. Â Stupid rp, yeah. Â Spammy rp, yeah. Â Maybe mostly ooc rp, yeah, but still rp.

While I do get the point you're dragging across, I don't exactly agree with most of it or even see that it fits. Behaviour like that loosely hangs on the balance of lolling and honestly, I don't want to feel forced to blacklist someone just because he went on a random... goofball spree. Especially if the person is a roleplayer. It just gives out a bad impression and you know the first ones are the most difficult to erase.
We're playing with other people, so we should be aware of that all the time. As I said and as many have said before, QS is quite the busy place so blurping out emotes that aren't RP, ergo do not contribute to the RP scene in any way is counter-productive and even... just bad. As I said before, it's best if you do these sort of things somewhere else and prefferably in the closed groups of friends (God knows I've goofed around with my friends a lot of times in wow, but we never went on to disturb someone's RP). I also agree with Edda's point that the thread doesn't do much help. It seems to me as if you were trying to see how the community would respond so you knew if you could try something like this again. I dunno. Maybe I'm being too vindicative at this point.
