To me someone who is a great roleplayer, and makes all tactical decisions based on personlity, approach and knowledge of the character is as "skilled" a player as someone who does the best tactically, because it is the player good at tactics, even if the character is dumb as a post. Which is, of course the classic game/story split. And it will vex the hobby until it's death because for everyone that line is somewhere different. Me I do tend to lean on the story side. So I find myself arguing that side of the arguemnt on these boards, when the tone and approach is a more game oriented one... but I am enough on the game side, that when I run into hardcore RP only types, I end up arguing the game side.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /></blockquote>
