OOC Local Chat

[Xander]

I of course use Brackets for OOC. Only because if your roleplaying and you try to talk and rp at the same time it gets so confusing. Especially when you run into someone who i just roleplaying and they talk the same ic and ooc. I mean i dont mind using brackets but i also heard that /em is for ooc talk aswell.

/em was incorporated for third person/party actions
for example if you rp a waitress or bartender who isn't actually there
you could

* BlackBird orders a beer from the waitress

/em Waitress retrieves and opens the beer and hands it to the man.

Yes, while many people use /em for ooc, it was never made for that purpose, nor was that it's intended use.

What did you say urs?   About 70% of people want this Ooc chat?   Well, you are about right so far

If there would be a command like this, new players would have the wrong idea of what Argonath is about. If you want brackets, type them.

[Seskom]

I understood this topic totally wrong...

I can say it aint hard to add brackets if you want to use them or use /em when you want to make OOC note..

Frankly, I think its divided into two alright - one group that supports argonath roleplay, and the second part that supports their own way. In this case, "their own way" is your OOC/IC rules.

Those things did not originate from Argonath, so they are not true Argonathian customs.

Are you trying to bring into Argonath the "serious" roleplay with OOC/IC shit and others do not hey do not fart do not fight do not talk do not pee do not poo etc...? If answer is "yes" - then you are not welcomed...

Using brackets is showing that you have no ability to RP and is for sure not a sign for good RP. In fact if you are not able to make difference between IC and OOC you have a lot to learn about RP.

One more quote.

I do not care.... We were making Argonath with OUR VISION and people liked it... your vision of Argonath (with the huge amount of ZOMG roleplayers) just shitted Argonath to the cheap moaning community where every kid is crying about everything... And where everyone is sure that roleplay depends on the chat system and not on the brains' activity and level of IQ of players themselves...

No matter how many of you team up to drag unnecessary stuff into Argonath, Argonath will stay what the Developers want it to be, not what "ZOMGLEETRP" people want it to be.

We finally agree.

Yeah, but a million more topics like this will be created, so I will put the search tool link in advance.

Why need a script for this? If you feel you need the OOC brackets, then just type them. Besides, there's more characters to type for "/ooc" than there is for ").)", so a script would just be totally redundant.

The point is, don't moan at all about who don't use them, but ALSO don't moan at all about people who do use them. This is the best way not only avoid arguments and complaints about "bad RPers", but also to bring people together in a happier environment.

 :ps: WTF?? I just noticed that typing two brackets together makes a "something wierld". :S

Word Censors are set for each SMF Forum, not for SMF as a whole.

Not a very good example of an RP...

Imagine that you are on stage during a school play, that you are portraying a knight who is about to slay a dragon. Instead of just saying "Die, thou evil dragon!", you also say "Okay, drop down on the ground now so that the dragon will look dead" afterwards to the guys in the dragon costume, in front of the play's audience. Not a very good actor.
