From my experience, people who "trash talk" roleplayers usually fall under three categories:
1) They think it's stupid/not a reason to play a game.
2) Have had poor experiences with roleplayers in the past. (Ex: Seeing graphic ERP in public, or the like.)
3) Just plain trolls.
I personally never speak up to any of them, because it's simply a waste of time. Internet fights and debates usually never have positive outcomes, so I avoid them altogether, even when it's something I'm passionate about.Â
If a people dislike RP and make it known, that's perfectly fine with me. It's their opinion, and their actions will only hurt their image, not mine. Also, Square-Enix devs seem to take harassment very seriously, from what I've seen. So if a person is going too far in terms of spam or getting outrageously mean, I just blacklist the person, and send a report.Â
I know a few of my fellow AWers have had to do that, unfortunately. :/
Other than that, I just choose to ignore them and concentrate on my own fun. :) That kind of silliness is just TOO silly to affect the way I enjoy a game.
