They can be an odd bunch. I've had a few bad experiences in-game and in forums. Some people have some ridiculous ideas about what should go into an MMO. Other times, I've been impressed by their work. Sometimes I play along in-game, but not much. It depends on the type of MMO. If it's the medieval/fantasy stuff, I don't really care to make the adjustment in speech.

i think games like WOW making servers for them is great, cuz not everyone wants to play "Ren Fest online", but obviously some people insist on it, and that fine, i belive thats how the rpg seen started. I tried to chill with some RP people before, but i dident read the manual i guess, and i was quickly banished, apprently you arent suppose to talk about "going afk", or " BRB gtg buy some beer IRL".
