Good idea to provide volontary training areas.
Not only being a lazy typist
but also a lazy reader, I did not click the search button to see if it's already in wishes forums.
The idea of being able to decide if you want to go trough a full learning process or ignore the informations you already know or won't use would really be a great improvement. Instead of searching for revelant informations for a specific vocation all over the world talking to every and each NPC, having an easy to find starting point would allow to develop a char according to ones tastes.
But does it apply with RP?
not sure.
As I said it's the community that defines the socialy acceptable behaviours. If more people are really disrupted by "LOL", be sure that GMs will care to /tell people using it to prefer /me laughs. Since I was never annoyed by it (maybe too used to net-chat) I never cared myself for the reasons I explained.
My point was more to show that there is a range between what's acceptable:
- Selling BS to the best offer
to what's fully OOC, disruptive, annoying:
- WTS BS /x.x
If a rule has to be edicted, it can only be an advice not to over-use abreviations. Unless someone finds a way to define more precisely and without contestation what's fine and what's wrong.
You can't imagine how many people whined when told that "wtf" was vulgar and not allowed.
