Here's some ideas about how to help with the drama (as people have explained it well enough)
1. Â COMMUNICATION. Â I cannot emphasize this enough. Â Right now, my character has seen and is in little parts of drama RP, but we are totally cool OOCly. Â Why? Â Because we talk OOCly. Â I told them my feelings and concerns, and they explained why their character felt such and such a way. Â Talking help.s
2. Â Learn to separate IC/OOC. Â Many people have problems with this. Â It is something many still are learning. Â You might ICly say you don't like highlanders because your character thinks they drink too much and never bathe. Â And some player might be a highlander and IRL drinks alot. Â So they can take that IC comment, and OOCly hate you for it. Â It happens ...
3. Â Leave. Â If something bothers you, leave the area. Â Don't stand and take the punishment and venom. Â If the follow you? Â ignore them. Â If they send you tells? Â Blacklist them. Â The game has those options so do use them. Â Don't think just because you RP you MUST take such abuse.
And never, EVER feel bad on reporting a person. Â I've seen many people do disgusting things to RPers from sitting on them saying they are raping them, to deficating on the table over and over. Â Blacklisting a person will keep you from seeing anything they type, you're just stuck watching them to motions.
Don't let a few people ruin your RP experience or your server. Â I have heard many times people come to a conclusion as your husband has, and I think it is a 'shoot at the hip' reaction. Â But hopefully you both find a place you enjoy playing.
