I think we all agree that it’s common courtesy (and a bound agreement to ToS) to keep racy messages to private channels.
I completely agree with blacklisting players once that rule has been broken. Personally, I try to go the IC route if my character is in the space when it happens and do some “the fuck do you think you’re doing in the middle of this bar†RP. If it’s ignored, a whisper is sent (super communication, a go!). If that doesn’t get the person to shuffle off to tells/party/a house/room then the blacklist gets a new member.
I certainly agree with blacklisting a person that is trying push RP on you (of any sort: erp, fighting, etc) after having been asked to stop and it’s been made clear that you are not interested in furthering things in that particular direction.
It’s my firm belief that it’s your $15 a month, play how you like.
That philosophy works for many subjects- playing a pimp, playing a fighter, playing a barmaid, ERPing, combat RP, playing a non-lore/game compliant character (a sparkling vampire that hails from the foreign lands of Azeroth and fell into Eorzea through a massive vortex in the middle of a great sea).
However, understand that your choices have consequences (good or bad!). Just as it’s your right to play how you wish, so is it your neighbors.
There will people who disagree and people (players and characters) that agree. Â
Embrace those that play with you and enjoy your story and style, understand that others may not and that’s okay. One hundred percent of people will not mesh one hundred percent of the time. Be disappointed, but understand it’s their right to fill their own story and RP how they like. Ignoring a player or playing off another character as odd and refusing to engage in RP with them is within their rights if that player/character breaks their immersion or upsets their RP. They’ll in turn find their own circle to play with. Perhaps one day your worlds will collide over something you can both agree with.
