I just find it VERY odd that people who play a multi-player massive online ROlE PLAYING game would have such a problem with roleplayers that they would actively give them a hard time.

tbh, I'm not worried at all. It is fairly clear that we as a community have a right to role play. If those people cause too much trouble, I'd report them.

I was forced to get on gilgamesh due to Balmung being full. I haven't had any interactions at all but from the names i keep seeing, stuff like Naruto uchiha madara elric lalouche the douchesicle . i'm probably not going to like it here... i hate names stolen from anime..i hate them..
I'm hoping Balmung opens up for launch/ early access. |

Others have said it already, but I'm repeating things for emphasis. There are trolls EVERYWHERE. It doesn't matter what their reasoning is, they will be there, and they will eventually grief you. No one place is troll-free. It's something you've just got to deal with.
Also, experiences will differ from person to person, place to place, time to time. I'm not accusing anyone here of this in particular, but just be aware of the fact that you are not some special victim with a special circumstance. Some people were lucky enough to not encounter the same negativity you did, others might have got blasted with it the moment they logged in for the first time. It happens. That's part of the reason we have RPC. Make some friends or find a few friendly groups and stick by em'. You'll be fine, regardless of what server you're on. |

My experience thus far has been mostly the opposite. Honestly, I'm actually impressed that, especially being OPEN beta (aka free test, no investment necessary), that one of the most populated servers has had minimal douchebaggery. I saw people bashing RPers a few times in zone shout chat yesterday, but nothing unexpected from an "unofficial" RP server. As someone else mentioned, many of these players are walking into a normal server only to find out it has a heavy set of RPers, and some folks, whether it's misconception, general ignorance, or groupthink/mobrule, just hate RPers "just because." I know it can be tough to avoid xxSephiroth Gokuxx attempting to teabag you while you're in-character, but the more you ignore the trolls, the more they go away.
I kill them with kindness and go along with my day, tbh Nothing frustrates anti-RPers more than you continuing to enjoy yourself (not suggesting to force it on anyone/do it at their expense by any means; just saying when you encounter griefing, as immersion-breaking as it can be, it's only gonna be worse if you pick at it). |
