Well, looking at the thread... Everything has been said on the matter, to be honest. I personally do what is interesting for my character. In that sense, absolutely any interaction is good to take, but this doesn't mean I will role play with certain people, especially not if they act like complete creeps and expect cybering. I am not here for that, and so I will not meddle with people who appear to be here only for that.Â
I am patient, so when/if flirt happens I usually take a good look to see if it's true, mature in character interaction from my interlocutor. If it's not, I take my leave after some IC remarks.
No matter how much you want to stay IC, not everybody in game is well intentioned and it is absolutely fair to hint IC that you don't want to stay or to fake your character having something else to do (even if it is against your character's personality, aka they're flirty, etc). RP is supposed to be a fun thing to do. If what you do isn't fun or if a certain character spoils your fun by sending absolutely creepy OOC remarks, what's the point of keeping it up?
In character or OOC, OOC or IRL, if anything makes you uncomfortable, anything at all, I believe you have the absolute right to say no and/or to leave and block/cut ties with this person.
I've literally been here for two days and I've seen some of these people. One of my favorite game is tormenting this kind of creeping stuff OOC by asking a lot unrelated questions. ("Do you like cabbages?" "Tea or coffee?" "My grandmother's salmon lasagnas are amazing.")
But I'm impish and this kind of situation amuses me more than it annoys me, but I'm still severing IG contact if it is too creepy. Some people are definitely desperate. But hey! It takes all kinds to make a world!
