I think Eva nailed it down pretty well. I mean, we could sit here and discuss our different levels of what can be acceptable, but that won't really do anything in-game.
Some people have higher standards and adhere to the lore heavily. Others might be a bit looser. Some might be even looser still. People won't change what they feel comfortable with, it's just how they are. I don't even really see my optimistic ideals as plausible. They're nice to say and think about, but to actually make them a reality isn't so easy for most people.
I haven't really seen any issues in-game, to be honest. Maybe people gossip a lot behind closed doors, but I've never seen anyone storm off from RP after getting upset OOCly about some character. I haven't seen anyone call some one out OOCly about their character. I've just seen people roleplaying. Plenty of random roleplay goes on. Plenty of shell roleplay goes on.
If some one has a higher standards, or really loose standards, it's going to dampen the amount of roleplay they have access to. That's just the way it is, there's not really any direct fix for that other than working at it. They just need to get by, one day at a time. Take things with a grain of salt if you're up to it.
It doesn't help that our community is small at the moment. It really is. As things grow, more and more people of varying styles will show up. Not everyone will always get along perfectly, but that's to be expected. As the game grows in popularity, you can be certain our community will grow, and more RP will become available. Until that happens though we all need to just get along like adults, even if we don't enjoy roleplaying with specific people or characters.
