Having standards isn't an issue.
Using those standards to bludgeon and otherwise belittle other people? Â That's a problem.
Having standards and refusing to lower them is not the issue.
It isn't about your standards, it's about how you treat the people around you. Â You can have standards and still be kind. Â And you can choose not to RP with certain people for whatever reason (or no reason at all) and still not have done anything wrong.
As Raindrop pointed out, no one is obligated to RP with anyone else. Â In my experience, sometimes it's honestly just better to walk away from a situation you know is going to go south because it bugs you on too many levels.
