Eh... off-topic continuation.. I can't really do that because my character's behaviors are usually sold on speech + emotes together.

Although there is one I "lazy out" with and only emote if I don't like those whom I'm RPing with.

Bah. I hate this guy who left a woman all alone on an island with no people pretty much all over. I don't care how OOC it would be not to do it, it just is something you shouldn't do IMO. Especially not just out of OOC greed for things they could have gotten anyway -- things they already had, but now they took away the ship and the company.

Bah. I hope you know who you are, and I hope you get bored of Cantr because no one roleplays with you. Grrr! And I will contact PD because of the language thing -- something I only do to people I dislike.

I love OOC hate.

Dudel just let a character get away with taking things and leaving people. Suppose that's poor RP too, to let people get away with a crime.

Damn me for being such a poor RPer. :lol:

When someone mentions a person's name in an emote and not in their speech, don't ask who the person is!

for example:

Code: Select all

a man in his twenties says: "Who is Joe?"

a woman in her twenties says: "*smiles at Joe* How have you been?"


If it had been my char, I'd have responded asking who mentioned anything about Joe, but instead the person corrected themself even though it was meant to be a thought and the wrong name was never said out loud.

That's like me WAITING FOREVER for people to address one another by name.

It'll be some RL days before I'm like "FINALLY someone said this person's name out loud!" XD

Note: Your character can "emote directions" to said person by name but probably shouldn't address them by name.

*Looks at Joe* What is your name?

Makes you look a bit "daft" as a player, perhaps, but is not technically against the rules. ;)

I would do that. As the player, I know the other character's name from emotes and can direct my char to look at the right person, but my character still wouldn't know their name and would likely ask. I'd rather do that than *looks at the man who just spoke* etc.

I've started going through the people page and making discriptions on people's names, for example-

Well armed nudist
Guy with a hemp hat
Female Archer
Girl with four shields and no clothes
Sleeper #1 (that would naked people with nothing and I rename them if I see them move)
Spearman
Sleeper #2
Sleeper #3
guy in drag
guy in loin cloth
Sleeper #4
Sleeper #5
Sleeper #6
Sleeper #7
Actice newspawn who hasn't spoken
Sleeper #8
