RP is my priority. I don't enjoy and am not good at gameplay. On the contrary, I put a lot of time and effort and thought and love into developing my characters and trying (sometimes failing, sometimes succeeding) to make them compelling and interesting.
Does that mean I should be limited to playing poor civilians with no combat experience, even if I think I have a good idea for & the roleplay skills to pull off a character who falls outside of that? Because I can't PvP, don't have the energy to devote to realm-first raiding, and have a disability that means I'm bad with numbers?
If someone's done those things, was inspired to roleplay by them, and incorporates them into their story, I don't have a problem with that. But lording themselves as "more legitimate" than someone without the achievements in question comes across as arrogant, mean, and - in some cases I had in WoW - kinda like, "oh well I'm better than all of you at roleplay because I've got this world first achievement" when the person doesn't even roleplay regularly.
