[QUOTE="Fenmarel, post: 2558351"] From what has been posted I had thought as much but just wanted to get the views from others on this matter. Now please don't think I am going to use something as trivial as them reading my character's mind and turn it into harassment. I actually have fun with the banter that usually entails when a character mysteriously reads one of my character's minds. One of my favorite quotes was by Fenmarel to another character..."even a mouse can control when it squeaks, are you less than a mouse in that you can't control your abilities?". The one thing most tend to overlook when they do read thoughts is that hardly anyone is going to welcome the invasion of their privacy. I had a character kill another character for that very thing, but it just so happened the character was plotting against another character and the poor telepath chose the wrong moment to read his thoughts. Even though the thoughts he was having were benign he had to make sure that what was deeper in his mind hadn't been compromised:D. As far as the ignoring thing that is very hard to do when someone looks at your character and starts answering thoughts running through his/her head. I think a little common courtesy should be used with this "ability" that so many seem to have. As Davon said a pm would be a very nice way to find out, and what if the character has protection against such things? Jason [/QUOTE]
