Actually, I've played both sides, multiple times. My attack wasn't towards you, it was towards the seemingly mindless, faceless sylvan hordes that attack us. I *like* having enemies that roleplay with me instead of trying to "frag" me without any banter whatsoever. Currently, the Sylvans are indeed guilty of that.
The game has become such a number-crunching neo-Quake mud that it sickens me. Certain characters should be denied just out of the principle that they don't roleplay, but they're not. I'm not going to name any names or take any specific potshots, but it really does detract from the game when you have so many so-called 'elites' talking about how they're so hot and whatever. Please spare me the trouble and refrain from telling other folk that you're better than them or holier than thou.
I at least (as Dhernarn) tried to roleplay with them in my arrogant, condescending way, and got banned OOC from an IRC channel once I figured out who one of them was (and didn't bother pointing it out to the channel I might add, the op there is just an asshole).
> We could all sit here like that dhernoth invoker guy and take potshots at the other side and what terrible roleplayers they are, but the truth is, everyone is doing the best they can, and you can't really make a realistic assessment from the "other side."
