That sucks when gms do that. My point is that it gets really frustrating for me when the rp turns into a social gathering and then becomes a total mess when every single character gets in on a conversation because the players don't have anything else to do with their characters and then it gets really annoying having to respond to each character. If I want a social gathering then I converse in the ooc, it especially pisses me off when the theme of the role play is suppose be about telling a story and instead becomes conversational mess. I don't role play for the sake of conversation, I role play to create interesting characters and to tell a story as well as have my characters face challenges. I'm in it for the Hero's Journey
