[QUOTE="Mishihari Lord, post: 6648230, member: 128"] I don't see a particular problem with a player who doesn't want to speak up much in character. They can have their PC be an introvert, too. There, they're roleplaying. If someone insisted on rolling for social interaction rather than roleplaying it out, that would be a real problem, but that's not what Spinozajack is talking about. Sure I'd rather have all players actively participating, but I wouldn't seek to replace a quiet player with a more active one. I have no problem DMing large groups and a player who doesn't actually do much doesn't add much to my workload as DM. Now if they actually wanted to speak more in character, I would arrange situations where their PC had to be the one to talk certain NPCs. The only way to get better and more confident at stuff like this is to actually do it. If they didn't want more interaction, then fine with me too, they can just watch til combat comes around.
