Message: <blockquote data-quote="Xerber" data-source="post: 2892511" data-attributes="member: 35905">blah blah...Your argument is that people don't use the various rooms because they aren't staying "Setting-specific". Well, to tell you the truth, The moment that the CRT was given a specific setting, the amount of users plummetted. Why? Because of this exact reason. Because people like you will sit around and fume over something as insignificant as whether or not a character is supposed to be in one room, but isn't. When this whole thing started back on TSR, the CRT was created for the sole purpose of allowing any kind of character from any type of world to come and congregate. So if somebody made a Freeform character or world for that character, they could use it and be able to freely RP. But that aparently wasn't good enough for those of us (not naming any names...) obsessed with the nit-picky rules of campaign settings, and so now, according to the rules, we are to be trapped withing the settings. So basically, If I have a character who is from Faerun, and somebody I want to RP with is from Greyhawk, Oops! I can't ever RP with them, because I'd be breaking the rules. Does that seem like the interesting and enjoyable experience that we all come here for, or does it seem more like a safe haven for the Campaign setting-obsessed? So why are people more inclined to go to CRT than the other rooms? Is it because they are ignoratn of the rules? Is it because they are "spitting in the faces of the Magi"? Or maybe it's just because, when given the choice between many, pretty much identical rooms, they would rather stick with what's familiar, as all humans tend to do instinctively, than go to a room that only truly differs in the amount of users?  If you want to change this, maybe you should suggest ways, other than campaign settings that many people either don't use or don't like, especially in ISRP, to set apart these other rooms to give people actual reasons to go to them. You see, I have, as opposed to your style of making a point, used logic and made suggestions towards a solution rather than simply rant about something that made you upset. So please don't tell me that I need to "Open my eyes" and "See the big picture" Because I really don't like being told I'm ignorant by hypocrites. It just upsets me.</blockquote>
