[QUOTE="Systole, post: 5896980, member: 93930"] Entirely separate from the arena proposal is this issue, which is where RP begins and ends. My take on it is this: Any person or persons employed by a real-world company who were incapable of holding it together for five minutes without getting into a shouting match with a coworker for whatever reason -- religious, philospohical, or otherwise -- would be escorted off the premises by security within fifteen minutes. Now, I'm all for leeway when it comes to RP, but there is a difference between arguing with another PC in the DWI and arguing with another PC in front of a prospective employer who had already indicated (a) her displeasure with the argument and (b) her willingness to fire unsatisfactory employees. If a character wants to paint himself pink and run naked and screaming in front of a legion of enemy bowmen, that may be a perfectly valid RP choice. However, I don't think the player has cause to complain when the character ends up a corpse with three dozen arrows sticking out of it. [/QUOTE]
