I think most player problems transcend skill level, tbh. You'll find thread-deserters in Free and in Advanced alike.

Fun fact: if you remove [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3581]the[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/1382476]obvious[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/2353021]outliers[/url], here are all the RP subforums ranked with a ratio of posts to threads (the higher the better):[list][*]Nation: 170.300[*]Advanced: 161.67[*]Casual: 149.446[*]Arena: 64.002[*]1x1: 61.940[*]Free: 28.141[/list]
Obviously I cannot measure how much of each thread on average is OOC compared to IC (not without resorting to a small, randomized sample size), but I found it interesting anyway.

I don't think it's accurate to not count those rps with the 10k posts. Because, regardless of how long they've been going on and how many cast changes they've had, they are still on-going. Not that I was apart of either of those three, but still.

Also, as for the discussion at hand, I don't think there's much we can do to better the community. We can hope that people will want to better themselves, but can't force it on people. Either they'll be cool people who will let people in their happenings or continue their ways. After all, a leopard can't change its spots unless it wants to.
