I don't mind the IC consequences of the choices I make for the character. I am mostly concerned with OOC consequences of those decisions. Since I am unfamiliar with the lore, I do not want to inadvertently set myself up with a story/character that is going to be shunned by reputable RPers and RP circles.
I am sufficiently spoiled by past associations with excellent RPers that had rather strict ideals. While I do not wish to be so 'elite' in attitude, I do want to create a character/story that is acceptable in such circles, whether I frequent them or not. In the end, once I am more versed in the lore, I still want to have a character/story that I am still satisfied with as I tend to hold myself to that 'elite' ideal.
Hope that all made sense without sounding snobbish!
