Someone hates us! - Coral Ferrinas - 09-22-2013

I was rping near Quarrymill, and we use FATE as our RP element. Of course, this attracts a lot of Non-RPers who are hunting for FATE.
Unfortunately this happen:
----------------------------------------------------
Gilbert La'pine: Fight on! They'll not have the hive back on our watch!
Gilbert La'pine: Another wave!
Zephyrik Epocan: Everytime someone RPs, God kills a kitten and a puppy.
(Coral Ferrinas) The gate is still standing sir!
Tae Hyolyn: I was about to say that Smile
P'lha Tahl: *gasp*  You don't like kittens and puppies?
Zuzuzan Zozozan: Nothing wrong with RP.  Don't be a jerk Tongue
Tae Hyolyn: don't really care for them, no Smile
Phae'ra Nireath: I hate pets in general.
----------------------------------------------------
Really?? What do we do to deserved this? I don't think we have done anything to bother them at all.

I've encountered this in every single online game I've played since my MUD days. Don't let 'em bring you down.

You have to understand those poor non RPers. Finding random RP that's completely unrelated to you can really ruin your gameplay. Even your life.

No reason, it just happens.

I love when people RP in FATe and will step in if I see it. Have fun!

If you can hate it, they will hate on it. I'd either suggest partying up and keeping it in a party or ignore them. There will always be someone who hates something, wither big or small. /comfort.

I can't say I blame 'em. Role-players are surrounded by numerous misconceptions often cemented by role-players themselves. As a result, a lot of players just don't bother understanding exactly what role-play actually is. It's a shame and the vocal disapproval of role-play isn't needed but that's just how it is.

It's best to not let these things get to you and shrug 'em off.

Feel sorry for the trolls, for they have no friends. When they see a bunch of people playing together and having fun, they want to try to make you as miserable as it is. The best thing you can do is starve it of attention and hope it dies a quick death.

RE: Someone hates us! - Asyria - 09-22-2013

Who gives a **** that people dislike us for RPing?
People have been disliking other people for any reason you can imagine since the birth of mankind.
Is this really worth discussing? o_o

This is what /blacklist is for. Smile Well, this and gil sellers, at any rate. Thankfully, griefers and trolls seem to be less common and less obsessive (on Balmung, at least) than they were on, say, WoW.

You always have the option of switching to a private channel, but I'd recommend just ignoring them. You have the right to RP publicly just as they have the right to ignore you if they want -- and soon, to transfer off to another server to get away from those awful RPers and their having fun.

Take heart in this individual and forget the rest!

RE: Someone hates us! - Miah Polaali - 09-22-2013

Agreed. I would stil continue to RP publicly. As it will help advertise RP if other RPers are in the area. Also, to make it know that there is an RP presence towards non-RPers may help attract those who have never RPed to give it a try. That was the case for me. 
I will admit years ago I was one of those trolls who did not quite understand RPers or RP in general. And yes having RPers around while doing somethign was annoying. But, after a while of seeing it, I would eventually begin to become more curious about it and well here I am now. A rather heavy RPer on MMOs. 
So, I say continue to RP publicly no matter what, continue to ignore trolls, and not lash back out. Even though you may have some people mistreat  you publicly, but you will also open up something new to people who have never tried it.

It really is their problem to deal with. There I already wasted too much effort on them.

Some people are too dumb to realise that MMO is short for MMORPG which means Massive multiplayer online role playing gameBig Grin
