Re: (OOC) Attracting New Races/Subraces to the city
Darn part elves again... :-P
Lady Hester. I figured I would break down your message and give you some clarity.
When you said "variety and respect for the individuality and differences of others in PaxOku."
I do not believe since we have started these changes in PaxOku since we took on kijustsu Anei they we have shown anything but respect for all that come to the city.
"My definition of role play is "
Everyone has their own definition of role play and we (PaxOku) will not push any RP style or treat anyone less because we do not hold a definition of RP and never will. Everyone is different and we must not only respect but understand others views. I have not seen anyone in PaxOku try to change peoples views on RP.
Hence the Open Door Policy and the abolishment of citizen applications.
"Should those who come into town for an event or just observe be turned away or discouraged because PaxOku is a "roleplaying town?" "
No one has been turned away from PaxOku. Rper and Non Rpers alike are welcome to PaxOku city. Nor did PaxOku ever say it is a roleplaying town only.
Hence again The Open Door Policy.
"Likewise, if someone starts a scenerio or plotline, it should follow to its own ending."
PaxOku city nor any involved in PaxOku should ever tell a Quest Master how to run their own events. Again PaxOku is also an open door policy to Quest masters as long as they do not destabilize someone els's Quest or undermine Lore created in PaxOku.
Some may not find that an open door quest policy but should Lord Havok say Lady Serina has died and her spirit lost forever.. then Winfield walks in with a fishing pole and says I have fished up the Spirit of Serina.
1. Thats just rude to do to any quest master.
2. That would create a major problem that I dont have time nor anyone else have time to deal with.
"If I am that friend, I shall choose to go to a private area, which may still be in town, but not on the street, and talk to them. But that is me and my choice; someone else is welcome to choose otherwise. *shrugs* "
Again PaxOku will never tell anyone how they can talk in the streets of PaxOku city. We are not the Rp police and anyone can break character if they wish. Thou you and I may find that annoying and not the best RP that is their RP and it should be respected.
