The Goal of a Role Playing game is to keep the game going.
General Info
I've been a free-form roleplayer for a VERY
long time. I also have an RSI (a typing injury), making it painful for
me to engage in intensive keyboard use -- read: using combat
meters. (I also happen to have issues with combat meters, but that's another story.)
Regarding Punctuation Quirks --
:: I have been using ::
for emotes for nigh twenty years, and I don't plan on changing.
Using them is so transparent to me, I don't even notice. I claim
age and seniority! (Yes, even over Mercedes Lackey! :P )
Besides which, separating out emotes with :: allows me to 1) insert
them anywhere in a line and have them clearly separated from the
character talking and 2) have the subject of a sentence be something
other than the character's name.
. or .. (by itself)
Means "hang on, I have something REALLY
brilliant to say, just give me a moment to organize it and type it
out." ie: pause a sec!
... or .... (by
itself) Means "no comment" or simply, please keep
going. I AM listening, but my character currently has no
input/action at this time.
