I think judging may be the wrong word...there's nothing wrong with avoiding RP that you're not into. It's when things get taken out of character and condescending when it becomes a problem. Calling people out as bad or going into a linkshell and saying how so and so is a bad rper is what in my opinion needs to be avoided. All that will cause is more people to avoid the roleplayer, which only makes the situation worse. Yeah there's a lot of stereotypes out there. You see a scantily clad cat girl, yeah chances are high that they could be just looking for erp. You want to avoid a character like that and not risk having to rp with someone like that it's fine. It's when a person starts vocalizing those assumptions that's the problem. Even if that character isn't an erper and their character is scantily clad for an actual IC reason suddenly they start getting a negative reputation. Â There's a lot of people that are new to rping and normally need a little extra patience. If that person gets hit with a lot of negativity they'll almost certainly be pushed away and have several stereotypes about RPers confirmed causing them to just become another troll.
People all have standards and there's nothing wrong with that. But if you're out in a public place or event then you're going to have to deal with what those standards say is subpar rp. You'll have to deal with RP that may be considered disruptive or obnoxious. Though I think in those situations is where people need to exercise extra tolerance even if you don't like the character or rper. A person may not like it when people post short little responses. Though then there's people who won't appreciate waiting for a paragraph of text, describing every little facial movement for a yes or no question.Â
Basically just be nice to each other and avoid the backbiting.
