Honestly?
There's almost no way to police other people's behaviour. If their character is going to act like a smart-allecky hard ass even in the most dangerous of situations, then there's little else you can do about it.Â
People don't like it when someone tries to show dominion over their characters, I guess. Regardless of circumstance.
Too many times now have I tried to use my character's powers of darkness as an intimidation technique. Let's be fair, if someone approaches you, eyes glowing bright red-orange, with darkness trailing from their entire body, most would probably cack themselves and run. I don't think it's worked to far, either.
At the end of the day? Yes, there are some RPers who need to back down when their character is outmatched, but only they themselves can control it.
