Also, I would like to add this which is probably the most terrifyingly annoying thing for me (and still about RP).
Trust a non native when he suddenly reacts ooc as surprised by your IC answer and - after checking - is all "yeah, looks like I f*cked up my answer, I wanted to say that ... " . It's already hard to admit that we failed to understand / write a sentence in english, it's harder when people don't trust us and persist in what they think we wanted to say.
We're not asking to retcon. We're correcting some mistakes due to the language.
So many time I did put Ilwe in some stupid situation just because I didn't checked twice if what I said was normal / understandable. That lead my char to be in bad relationship with others extremely stupidly and those people weren't always tolerant enough to understand and accept it.
That's something really vicious and insidious that can deeply hurt over time.
And sorry I'll try to not monopolize that topic, language & culture problem is something I have to face since years and I see a lot of my friend struggling with it as well. Somehow today I just needed to share my feelings around this =x .
