Dice keeps people honest. Dice, or heavy OOC communication before the conflict.
However, Â I personally don't think ooc level matters, Â only authenticity of how you've played ur character up to that point.
I do prefer rolls. Especially when matched with character sheets. I'm talking about non-roll based combat though, which seems to be rather popular.
They have not signed on to an agreed set of rules so they go as far as their imagination allows... which can be pretty far.
I avoid combat rp unless I'm comfortable with the other rper, or unless there are established groundrules.
EDIT: @ Gege: I had someone comment icly on my characters archery, because they checked to see I was oocly an archer. But... I had my bow hidden. I was oocly archer because it was a higher lvl class, therefore access to more clothes.
Icly, my character explained they'd never touched a bow in their life. They preferred to do their talking with their fists. The other person seemed sorely confused ^^;
