Roleplay is when you talk like in Shakespheres novels (Im not sure if Shakespherians a word) and act like FFXI is the real world etc. You dont get it :/Quote:

Your role playing because its a online role playing game.
I love it. I don't do it personally (cause I suck at it) but I think it's a lot of fun when other people roleplay while playing the game. There's not too many people who roleplay seriously on my server, so it's amusing when I run across someone who is rambling on about the blessings of Altana. :)
Yes I mean the D&D nerds definition. I wrote few examples in my first post but I guess they werent specific enough.Quote:

It doesn't really bother me. Occasionally I'll just goof off and roleplay an idiot, but I certainly don't seriously roleplay.
No, that's not what roleplaying is at all. Roleplaying is acting like another person. For example, some people enjoy roleplaying a police officer or a Japanese schoolgirl. In a ROLE PLAYING GAME you are encouraged to take on the role of another person within the confines of the world of that game. The NPCs in the world of FFXI speak in contemporary english, so roleplaying in FFXI does NOT involve using an Elizabethan dialect.Quote:

I personally don't roleplay, but only because it makes the game a lot easier when you can say things like "dude! fix your macros!" or "brb, mom needs me to help with dinner". Roleplaying is a lot of fun, but it makes the game a lot harder.
Sorry wrong roleplay
Hark, a goblin.
I've never seen someone actively role-playing in Final Fantasy XI.
I would probably go along with them if I noticed that they were trying to stay in character.
Yar the pirate go /hump /hump laddie! O_o
Yeah, I don't think I would play along if someone did that to me, but I really haven't seen anyone actually roleplay on Midgardsormr.
What about you, lionx?
I personally have not seen anyone do that openly. I wouldnt expect anyone to UNLESS they have an RP LS. Since FFXI does not have specific RP Servers i would guess that most RPers probably only RP inside their LS and dont impose it on others(as that be rude and expecting too much of others). I know that there are some people posting threads about RP in ffxionline, however as you can see, a majority of FFXI players dont RP. ^^;

I play a little of this, a little of that, but I don't let it occupy that much of my time, you know!Quote:

Yes, it's a wonderful thing to see. That's why I wouldn't mind playing along if I saw someone actually doing it, but it's not that common at all in Final Fantasy XI.
