Or, you know, don't pick fights with strangers.
That's just generally good advice.
If you do, though, talking about it OOC is probably a good idea.
Uh...you really should communicate ooc with someone you don't know before randomly attacking them. Future conditional doesn't exempt you from this simple common courtesy that can avoid so much drama.
First, most of us aren't randomly attacking anyone; most of us deserve being attacked at some point in the course of the RP. Â Second, it doesn't necessarily require OOC communication if you've got an understanding of how this works. Â That's originally why it became the de facto standard. Â I mean, you may find you have to drop to OOC for every conflict, but dealing with anyone else particularly well schooled in how this works, I rarely have had to over the last decade or so.
