Role Playing Questions:
What is RP?
RP is the abbreviation for Role Playing. Role Playing is what I refer to as the collaborative writing where you, the player, has control over oner character. With others, you have your character interact with other characters, developing your character in a certain direction with each encounter.
What is Godmoding and Metagaming? What are the differences?
Godmoding is when you automatically assume that your character is more powerful than another and autohit others, or you take control of another player's character without their permission. Auto-hitting is when you state that the hit lands and the after effects of the hit landing or saying you hit someone. Taking control is when you assume actions or emotions on the other party's end and do not allow them to act in a way they would have wanted.
Metagaming on the other hand is used more in the context of your character having knowledge of something they shouldn't, or never attained. This applies in all cases, such as battle or just casual conversation. Taking private information from someone's character profile and using it in RP is metagaming.
What should I do if I have a problem with someone godmoding or metagaming?
Report them to me or another staff member if you believe someone is breaking the rules. We will investigate and deal with the situation.
