The Tao Of RolePlay
What is RP
There are many different STYLES or roleplay, Short, para, semi-para, mixed. But in each case, it is all RP. IN RP, you operate your avatar as a puppet, it is not an extension of yourself, and the reason for this is the TAO.
You operate your avatar just like you would operate a puppet in a puppet story, no how much of yourself you put in to the puppet, or the story, the puppet will never be you, and you will never be the puppet.
Much in the same way a writer or other story teller can and will put their characters in danger, with no danger to themselves, you will do the same.
But its not the same, is it?
What is OOC
OOC is out of character, or putting your Real Life self in to your avatar, except for the most important of things, ((Fire, Phone, etc)) OOC chatter of any kind is to be avoided at all costs.
