Hello all! I wanted to bring up a tiny discussion, only because I was working on some mini plot-esque things that I want to roll out, but I want to sort of recruit people into it by means of the forum.
While I don't really have a problem with this, I am worried about metagaming. I haven't actually seen it myself in this community, but the sheer amount I've dealt with in the past from other RP communities leaves me (hopefully) understandably paranoid.
Part of me wants to say it might be inevitable, really, and that I should just suck it up and try to roll with it. Which is what I've had to do in the past. But then the other part of me is just kind of like "no that is bullshit and I shouldn't have to deal with such behavior."
Suggestions? Advice?
It's not really a *huge* plot or anything. It's more like... making waves and getting people involved, just giving people a sort of small story to roll with should they be feeling a little un-included elsewhere.
