I want to encourage my players to roleplay a little more by giving out roleplaying XP. What is your experience (no pun intended) with RXP?
My experience with RPXP is this:
The players who already role play get a lot of extra XP. Those who are unable or unwilling to role play fall far behind. I have never personally seen RPXP encourage a non-role player to role play more.
That said, in my current game whenever I see a player doing something Amazing™ (and that could be just about anything: good role playing, and ingeneous plan, taking an incredible risk and being lucky enough to succeed, a really good description of an effect or action, etc...), I give them a "personal milestone". That is to say, a bonus milestone for that character alone.
