For the most part, I agree and abide by everything that Jakky expressed. I couldn't have said it better myself.

Now, on the issue of IC vs. OOC. Several things.

I would really like to see a universal system for expressing Out-Of-Character in the RPC. As many of you have said, many role-players have a different means of expressing "mun bubbles." If we can vote on and approve a system, such as ((__)), I think it may help clear up several misunderstandings ahead of time.
As Jakky said, there are times when role-players may drop character completely in the game when it is deemed inappropriate. On our own servers, when we were all split up, that happened more often than not, because many people do not accept role-playing as party-friendly. My own guild recommended against it, because most people get annoyed at emotes screwing up the tactics of a party. I'm not sure how much this is going to change on a role-play friendly server, but perhaps we should set aside some things to think about for role-players to respect non-role-players and their ability to have fun in the game. Because let's face it. We're not the only ones who have a style of play that they enjoy and don't want to be trampled on.
On the website, it is listed that guilds will be organized by casual to hardcore role-play ratings. I think that our guidelines on casual vs. hardcore play should coincide with those references, so as not to confuse people.[/list:u]
