*looks around* that's cool I can read my book then. # 7 for wheel of time. (getting closer and closer to the Brandon Sanderson parts.)

I think this might be one of the more ridiculous things I've ever heard about PBP assumptions.

Here's a conversation between me and one of my players:

Me :I'm all for telling you as much backstory as possible but when the party does not really seem to be interested in talking to NPCs then I am unable to do so. And when you go through APs, you likely only get a chance to go through it once. It also makes me feel discouraged that when I try to RP the NPCs, I don't get much of a response.

Him: I want to work towards more interaction with the NPCs but I as a player don't have a history with them. I know Hedran does but it's hard to catch up on that. Especially, when we have been treking through the woods so the day to day would mostly routine.

Me: Even day to day travelling you can get RP

Him: I am also working under the assumption that we are also pretty elite Malitia in hostile territory at this point so we are being quite as we travel, keeping the fire low, and talking we needed as to not draw attention how we are behaving. Talking formations, resources, contigencies are all rp that is directly relevant to the situation. People build bonds by achieving things together. For a group of warriors thfighting and the success is rp and would change the bonds of the group spoken or unspoken. Hedran has been healed and had is life saved similarly has saved lives, that changes bonds.

Me: You're not assumed to be stealthing, since the amount of people in mediun armor would draw enough attention from clanking, whether you were even talking or not. I do not impose penalties on people choosing to RP. Have enough stealth, it comes out in a whisper and no one except the people you're talking to hears you anyway. Insufficient stealth and you clank so much that whether you talk or not it makes no difference.

Him: I'm not saying stealthing. I'm saying common sense movement through the bush. That is why it is RP and mechanically stealthing.

Me: Read some David Eddings, Mercedes Lackey, Tamora Pierce and...

That is rubbish!

I'm all alone, There is no one here beside me.

Looks like my phone is dead. :-(

Unfortunately because we're poor we have the pay as you go phones so someone is most likely getting a new number. :-(

Aww but how am I gonna call you without your new number.... wait I don't think I had your old number. also how do you feel about 2am phone calls that start with "I'm bored"
