Title: Going AFK/Alt+Tabbing
Post by: Volki on August 31, 2013, 07:53:32 pm

When you're in the middle of a roleplay, DON'T DO THIS. It is rude.

That counts for multi-clienting, too. Unless you've absolutely got to or you have lightning fingers, don't do it.

Don't watch movies while roleplaying. (I used to do this and come back from a long scene to find the player I was with logged off.)

Especially don't play other games while roleplaying.

Now, admit it. Who does this? (I know who all of you are... Don't try hiding.)

You mean, like, reading forum posts while others RP around you?

Agreed, but difficult to avoid, especially if a player is RPing a character that's behaving in a semi-passive fashion, where the normal 'call and response' RP cadence becomes inappropriate in that it basically spams the logs with useless posts :P

I write, think, eat, drink and make love at lightning speed. Kull Rhundin waits for no one. So while I may alt+tab to engage my genius, know that you are unworthy of my full attention.

Let this comfort you.
