I've got one guildmate who, in an effort to RP more, say's Hi in guildchat,
then turns it off. She's also got RP flag set. So, basically, if I miss
her Hi, and do a /who all on the guild, I'll never even know she's around to
hook up with. :(
I take a different approach. I look at guildchat and /who as being possible
because of gnomish inventions called Communicators and Tricorders. ;^) I
also have no issues personally with conversing with evil races. My two
guilded characters, bard and rogue, feel associating with the dregs of
society is a necessary part of their profession.
I have not yet found an IC way around discussing strategies though. That
information NEEDs to be clear & concise.
Peace
Evulia <Sisterhood>, Tunare
