We(Gvardia) and most people we roleplay with, use it for both purposes. Out of roleplay chat, and describing the environment around us. And I see that most of veterans are doing the same.

So I don't see the problem with it, that's Argonath's unique way of usage /em, if other servers use it for describing environment, that's their thing.

I think that if people really get mad that some use /em the wrong way then maybe a OOC cmd should be brought in.

By the way, in no way would this make the server more strict or less, would give people other was of roleplaying and hanging out, since some can't understand when one is talking serious or not in local chat, and some don't like when /em is used for that..
I know this might have been refused in the past, but so was a lots of things, which now became reality, so if the dev team along with HQ would talk about it and come to a consensus about the matter, would be perfect.
Sure lets just throw the uniqueness and authenticity of Argonath and become "another" SA:MP Server...

It literally makes no difference wether people use /em for OOC or for third person RP, people know the difference between the two and if you can't tell the difference between what is OOC and RP, then maybe a roleplay server is the wrong server for you.

I see lots of people talking about "OOC;IC;Metagaming" even though Argonath does not support such RP terms.

OOC = Out of character (no shit). I assume there aren't much groups in Argonath that actually roleplay their characters out realisticly, not like everyone roleplays his character that way, but the server is RPG if that changes anything. There's no such thing as Powergaming/Metagaming in argonath(from experience), alot of people use /em as ooc and for rp circumstances. You could have just added a local ooc chat really..

I hate how people use /em not for its intended purpose and actually use it to moan and leave a roleplay situation (ergo refusing roleplay).

This whole topic is because someone is offended because a command is being used "incorrectly".

That's just like doing /me kills everyone or /me flies away, it's incorrect usage but it's in no way a violation of server rules or other people's views.

In my opinion, /em is whatever you need it to be. Do you use it to describe the environment? Fine! Do you use it to "OOCly" communicate with others? Fine! Do you use it to support your roleplay in another way? Fine!

The true uniqueness of Argonath lies in the fact that we have a very light and liberal interpretation of what roleplay is. Because of that, even multiple incompatible forms of roleplay can exist alongside one another. Where applicable, they can compromise and mix and if they don't want to, then they don't.

This, and no further explanation is needed, leave this topic alone.

Adding an out of character chat won't destroy the "uniqueness and authenticity" that Argonath has.
