Ernam

Well yeah, breaking role should only be in privacy.  I'm just saying, I'm not going to send you a tell explaining, in-character, why I need to repeatedly hit you.  I'm obviously testing triggers or something, and I find it silly to justify OOC things like that in-character (like "my soul is tired").

Aktillum

Yeah, aeon and daydreaming are both acceptable imo. My soul, not so much. Fun fact: I know someone who got shrubbed for telling someone they would "own their soul". The person it was directed at issued for ooc threat.

Nim

Ernam said:

I pretty much have two modes - full RP mode, where I'm completely into immersion and so on, and testing mode, where I'm pretty much OOC.  It's pretty hard to roleplay "OK please stand here while I break your limbs for science.  The key is separating the two and making sure people you're interacting with are on the same page.

But... that's like half of Nim's character. Inflicting pain and death in the name of objective experimentation!

Jurixe

I think you should safely assume that you should always be IC unless you have specific permission from the person to talk about OOC stuff. Not naming names, but I've been hit with interactions where the person just assumes I understand right off the bat that it's OOC - fine if they're my friends, but if I don't know you, it's pretty unpleasant and unsolicited.

I don't like that some people directly substitute 'aeon' for 'lag' as in 'So much aeon'. I appreciate that you're at least not completely OOC but my mind automatically makes the connection, which doesn't make it any less jarring. I tend to say something like 'I seem to be feeling/moving very slowly today/don't seem to react fast today' and hope they understand. I'm all right with daydreaming or distracted, since that's plausible ICly.

Mishgul

The effects of aeon as an affliction almost accurately describe the actual events however.

Uhh anyway. Here's this: http://d.pr/i/JDYh

@Mako accidentally murdered his gross pet spider thing, Lust. Kiah thought it would be nice to have a little ceremony for his fallen companion. I thought it was so funny that Mako played along. Sortof expected him to just 'lol' and let me do my thing. XD highfive Mako!  

Kerria

@Kotaru‌ says in a soft, careful voice, "I just dive-bombed him in phase with eyesigils."

@Dracemir says to Kotaru with a fading Mhaldorian accent, "Whats dive-bomb? i keep hearing that."

You say, "It's when atavian fighters pull in their wings with swords out from up in the air."

You say, "They either kill themselves, or the other person... sometimes both."

Kotaru says to Dracemir in a soft, careful voice, "I ran at him and threw an eyesigil as soon as I reached him. Pulling us both out of phase, for guards to deal with."

Dracemir utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

Kotaru laughingly says in a soft, careful voice, "And.. I thought the term came from flying mages 

dropping holocaust bombs."

@Aeceon says in a soft-spoken voice, "That's uhh.. Holobombing."

Mizik

(The Midnight Crew): Merador says, "Who wants to buy MudSexilla for 500 dollars. Comes with 

selfcumcounter so you know when you're nearly there and you can switch offensive strategies on the 

fly. Here's a log where I'm hands free mudsexing (if you see what I mean)."

(The Midnight Crew): Carmain says, "Sexvo is cheaper."

(The Midnight Crew): Kross says, "Damn."

(The Midnight Crew): Kross says, "Dibs."

(The Midnight Crew): Sybilla says, "Aww, you named it after me =,)."

(The Midnight Crew): Taraus says, "Does it include a toggle for different classes."

(The Midnight Crew): Carmain says, "Oh dear."

(The Midnight Crew): Ayoxele says, "Holy shit."

(The Midnight Crew): Ayoxele says, "Does it accept tentacles in occultism??"

(The Midnight Crew): Merador says, "Yes, it's based off your class for extra RP potential."

(The Midnight Crew): Merador says, "For example monks can go bear stance."

Good god, lol'd

Datrius

When I need to log off I usually say something like I need to rest or I need to go. It seems more ic than saying My soul needs to rest.

Vaehl

The best I've gotten is probably:

X tells you, "Sorry! My soul had to pick up the phone."

Jhaeli

Admittedly, I try and make a point to let at least one citymate/housemate know that if I suddenly AFK during group combat, it's because I have a toddler who cares not about honour or experience and WANTS MOMMY NOW. I also let them know that they should feel in no way obligated to protect me and I don't really care about dying - I can embrace when I come back, no biggie. When I do, it's in a message clearly marked as out-of-character so that they can read it at their leisure, and it's not something I bring up often or casually. Life happens, after all.

That said, blatantly OOC tells can be jarring when you aren't expecting them from a person, especially a random stranger who is clearly not a newbie.

Bukariin

You tell Dinn, Shogakusha of the Hold, "Hail, Shogakusha. Care for a spar?"

Dinn tells you, "Why what did i do?"

Antionette

Dinn, Shogakusha of the Hold (female Atavian).

She is 48 years old, having been born on the 15th of Glacian, 614 years after the fall of the Seleucarian Empire.

She is ranked 2006th in Achaea.

She is an extremely credible character.

She is not known for acts of infamy.

She is a Citizen in Cyrene.

She is considered to be approximately 375% of your might.

Her motto: 'I have harpies!'

Something tells me she's not a full cookie jar.

Bukariin

I'm just going to assume she went Serpent to pickpocket denizens or something

P.S. Does that actually make decent income?

Razha

No, unless you pickpocket super strong denizens, which generally will kill you before you can get away, unless maybe if you set up triggers.

Although...when he gives you food. It isnt poisoned..huh..go figure..

Real event. He ran up and gave me and @Sunny each a handful of fruit in delos and ran off. And I was totally ready to fight him too...I was like...wat...my comment to someone was..apparently he is trying to prove to us that he is indeed a fruit cake.

Funny you say this, I had my credibility slip because a youth talked about "lagging" And I corrected them with the term, no Lord Aeon is visiting you. And bam, lost credibility. When I issued me to find out why I was told, speaking about Aeon of any sort is OOC...funny..don't we have Aeon cards that do almost exactly what Lag does?
