Okay, I mentioned this in the welcome chat already but I would like to see if you think this would be fine, before I put it into action. As you know, I set up the OOC rule for the OT. The reasons for this are logical: it can happen that one person acts in character, the other out of character and they don´t know it, thus it can easily happen that people feel offended because of a misunderstanding.
I know how tempting it is to step into Sinbad´s boots when I enter the OT just because... heck, it´s fun. ;D
However, I´d like to avoid fights that started as fun to turn into something where people feel offended, therefore, here is my idea how we can easily get along with the problem.
1)
The OT is strictly OOC (out of character) This does not mean that we have to share our real names to communicate, of course. Our character names function as nick names.
2)
I would advise to creat one thread in the OT area where we can act in character just for the heck of it
My idea would be to call this "The in character tavern" This means that of course this is no part of the actual RP, it´s just OT but with an in character twist. Here we can bicker and tease each other as our characters.
So, if you´re fine with it, can I hear ye say aye?
If not, let me know.
