You make a good point, which leads me to believe it is likely just a style of presenting the action - as much as someone would emote in present or past tense - which could be an ingrained habit from some other manner of play. Maybe they're from a LARP group that often states what they WILL be doing instead of what they ARE doing, I dunno. Perhaps the best course of action would be to find someone who writes in future tense on a regular basis and ask why they do that. [sub]V[/sub][sup]
