....You might think I'm joking but I genuinely was attracted to the idea of a Ishgard RP though it's a pity that with such open hostility I don't think I'll be very wanted in that linkshell.
Since roleplaying is new and you've not actually moved to most populated server with lot of roleplayers, perhaps it's best to not really start with discussing what you think is right than what you think is wrong. No one is here to start telling you that your idea is dumb, but if you are new to roleplaying and don't know much about the lore... then people will just raise their white flags or red card at you and give you the same hostility as written above.
If you are new to something, you are a student or intern. Whatever you learned or you know so far are just basic informations and whoever are your senior students/collegues, supervisors or teachers will tell you to wash up those basic information and follow their regulations and information that they give to you. But even if you "nicely" try to argue about the information and rules that they given to you, you will be disliked.Â
Your character is your character and your ideas. But if you want to improve your character and you want to learn about roleplaying, then you should at least understand what Virella's trying to say. (except the hostility part)
I also suggest you not to feel discouraged from joining Balmung or roleplaying. You might actually meet good people and like roleplaying than you think really.
