[quote=@Dawnscroll] [@Lunaeria] Do me a favor and please don't patronize me, especially this early into the game. There's no other way one could take that sentence other than an insult. I was simply unused to the plot advancing as quickly as it did, even before early character interaction. Railroading vs natural growth as it were, especially for an opening post. [/quote] I literally wasn't patronising you but you mentioned the roleplay as if there was supposed to be some significant difference which was easily noticeable. Also I end things with sweetie and pet names all the time it is the way I talk and if that bothers you then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ also tbh I don't see how you were railroaded when what happened was literally what I told you would happen in the OOC and things were kinda sped up for the convenience of no one person having to speed out a post. I've personally seen much busier opening posts in Advanced and Casual roleplays so I guess it boils down to personal experience. But I wouldn't say a significant amount of plot lies in the group making their way onto a ship because enemies might be nearby. If that's the case then Shamo is going to have a pretty boring reign as Avatar.
