<Snipped quote by Balance>

Your first paragraph basically explains why I'm willing to switch formats for the sake of expanding our horizons. People won't be willing to adopt our format, and if the customers don't come to you, you come to them.

Your second is another reason. There's almost no one else willing to RP like us, and as such couldn't ever come join us here. If we want to grow our playerbase, someone is going to have to adapt to the community.

It only becomes just another generic role play if you let it. There are ways to describe thoughts and feelings without actually giving away information in your writing regarding puzzles or secrets that need to be found out. Also, again, the fact that hardly anyone out there is willing to RP like us virtually makes this a requirement.

Never mentioned easing anyone anywhere. The point is that we go get other people, not wait and hope that the people we know won't join us do so. If we come to them and get them interested, maybe that could start a drive to understand this main thread and how it works.

One thing I'd like to mention: We don't get anybody else who's willing to RP our way not because they don't exist, but because we don't seek them out. I've always touted the "You adapt to MR; MR does not adapt to you" because I truly believe MR to be perfect. But its perfection can only be attained by those willing to reach for it.
