Seriously, though, that kind of attitude reminds me of the guy that invited me to join a Citadel TF. When I declined, he explained to me that it was my RESPONSIBILITY to team with others since I was in an MMO.

I restate my position: LOL!

So please. Knock off the whole lolRP line. If that's how you feel, this is the wrong game for you.
Bill O'Reilly has this problem, and it appears that you have it as well.

BEING LOUD DOES NOT MAKE YOU RIGHT

Got it?

OMG! I SHOULD MAKE A TOON NAMED Mr. Shouty WHO TALKS IN ALL CAPS!


Edit: Wow! That was such a great name idea, I logged in and the name was available! I just made a sonic/sonic defender named Mr. Shouty.

Knock it off. All of you. Even though I disagree that RPers should get some kind of special treatment and went for a lulzy "lolRP" in my initial post because I didn't think I'd be listened to if I talked logically, what you're doing is essentially taking potshots at people from behind someone else's back.

Grow some backbone and actually join the conversation.

Shoulda named him "Loud Howard" as a Dilbert Homage.

I already came up with a battle cry. Something along the times of:
"OKAY. LET'S JUST CHARGE IN! FOR SOME REASON, SNEAKING UP ON THEM NEVER SEEMS TO WORK."

Will you use a standard chat font, or will you have some nice bright color to really make it stand out?

I rp the L-block when I play Tetris.

Seriously, this is like saying sitting in the driver's seat make vroom, vroom noises is the equivalent of driving a car. Just because I'm somewhere that an activity occurs does not mean I'm partaking in it. Likewise; if I sit in on my friend's D&D session, eat all the cheese puffs and drink the Mnt Dew (and what's with that new spelling), and talk about the weather; I am still not roleplaying.

True, but your fingers get as orange as thiers.

God, it's been like 2 years since I last saw that video, and it STILL cracks me up. It's actually even funnier than I remembered!

The enlightened person is aware of this, acknowledges it, and proceeds to act in such a way to maximize their own benefit, which includes minimizing 'costs.' Acting outside of normal socially accepted bounds is permissible under such a thought system, if the subjective benefit outweighs the subjective costs.

This is frequently misunderstood, however. It does not say that you are allowed to run roughshod over others freely; it simply says that you can if the benefit outweighs the costs. A suitably powerful, rich and connected person can do things that an average person cannot, because they have the wherewithal to ignore the outcry of those below them -- the cost is not high enough to consider. In other words, the subjective repercussions of ones actions determine their legitimacy.

As a philosophy, that's pretty dark, though it goes a long way toward describing the corporate mindset.
That variation is fairly dark if only because the use of it fails to look at things in the long term.

If you weaken the people around you, you accomplish a certainty of two things:

a) said people will have less capability to help you in the case that you need help

b) said people will have less reason to help you in the case that you need help

Granted, individuals of greater resources can probably get away with ignoring the certainty for longer than others, possibly even to the end of their lives, but the fact remains that the long-term results of abusing others is that you suffer.

On the contrary, if you strengthen those around you then:

a) said people will have more capability to help you in the case that you need help

b) said people will have more reason to help you in the case that you need help

Now, granted, most of the reason I thought along those lines is that I got tired of trying to convince people that I behaved in certain ways because I felt that was "right" way to behave.

People tended to assume I was putting on airs of morality with certain tendencies and wouldn't leave me alone with trying to convince me that my behavior had no point. So I started looking for practical reasons for all my moral decisions.

THAT makes people leave me alone for whatever reason.
