Complaint Department / Re: IC baddies vs OOC goodies

What would you prefer -
1. A player who stumbles across an event & calls his guildmembers in to join in the event, or
2. The player doesn't call in his buddies because he's afraid he'll be accused of not plaing fair, only to read in the forums about how role-playing is dead & no one comes to join events any more??
Yes I agree that players should read other's descriptions & act accordingly (the player doesn't know the hooded figure's name, etc). However, if you want people to join in and role-play with you, you will have to anticipate someone calling in his cavalry!
Keep in mind that there are baddies out there who do their fair (or should I say unfair?
) share of ooc. The problem comes from all directions.
If you want a lot of players involved in your rp, don't complain about the use of chats to bring others in!! Instead, focus your energies on finding a way to educate players about the more basic rules of roleplaying - in my opinion, that would make your naughty adventures more enjoyable for yourself.

). My impatience is because there is a special event coming up for my character very, very soon & it would have been wonderful to have such a thing as a working fire there. I'm sure there will be other events.
