@ K'nahli: I can honestly say I have had one positive experience with combat related RP, and the rest of it has been terrible. I think many are in the same boat, hence a general reticence to engage in confrontational/combat RP.
As badger said, I'm willing to keep an open mind, but am not afraid to pull the plug if things get too crazy. In a world where sleep spells and bindings exist, its highly possible even non-combatants could make a hasty escape.
I also think criminal activity would realistically happen in isolated areas or back alleys, away from crowds and guards. Unless you got some gang stuff going on =p
To clarify, my one good combat experience, my char got the crap kicked out of her and almost died, so winning has nothing to do with it. Its about believability in how you RP the fight, and I find a lack of this :c
