Okay, so there's this female who hangs out in the cavern of ages. She's a well known player / character.
Just she's ALWAYS whispering OOC shit to me. To make it worse, she'll say something like :
******* whispers, '' yeah I love my kittens , they play so silly.''

******* giggles at you.

See what I mean.
Whispering something totally OOC then giggling IC to my character, who hates that shit.

Finally , she does it ALL the time.
Like never ever ever fucking stops, moving onto fresh conversations every time one plays out.
I really think she's a nice person.
But no way can I take when I come to a fantasy game, folk talking RL at me.
Fucks RP totally.

kill her. chop her head off. Sadly, Elanthian ghosts can speak. Hmmm, well... find someone who knows silence very well?

I know I know, but it seems she really needs to talk so bad.

:sigh:
I'll do it.

I am pretty sure I know who it is, empath right?


She's a very very needy person. She is over the top with merchants. Just tell her, that's the only way you'll get some peace.

Yeah, but don't be mean about it. She's a really nice lady so don't go killing her etc. I'm sure she is mature enough to take it well if you just talk to her. :)

you know me Vic.
I wouldn't do that.

I'm planning on telling her my AIM, then putting it on ignore.
That way we all win.

Just whisper the link to this thread to her next time she does it.

You could always charge her 50,000 silvers a session for OOC therapy.

Eh. Apart from the IC response, I don't think it's that bad. Whisper is a valid personal OOC format.

It's just very annoying.
I can only remain polite and speak to her for so long.

I don't see how hard it is to RP out loud and whisper OOC if you dont have someone's IM.

I do it daily.

Last night I was RPing my cleric in Vaalor (ugh) and some youngin was whispering to me, i kept trying to RP.. Finally he actually whispers, "Hey are you a NPC?"

:stares:

Finally I whispered, "no, I'm a cleric. And I was trying to RP, but we can forego that if you wish."

if you have her AIM you could just tell her that if she wants to talk ooc to do it on AIM, then you can choose to pay attention if you want.

empath right?

This is usually the case for some reason I don't think anyone's figured out yet.

Asha

Yeah , empaths are pathetic and needy.
Word.

WTF Sergey... SOME empaths not all! :(

My empath would rather give broken bones than mend them...

Simple fix: Whisper to them to stay IC, if they don't, warn interact and move on. There are plenty of people out there that still RP, so just ditch the ones that don't.

However in this case, you seem to have dug yourself a pretty significant hole by not nipping it in the bud.

This coming from the sorcerer who'd hunt for my empath in her hiding spots to get healing.
