I'm sure everyone is alright with it in moderation. Hell, I use it from time to time.But I've had an experience where people took it too far. A promising story turned into a meaningless flirt-fest where people acted silly the whole time. Most people ended up being more interested in keeping a fluffy animal (long story) than the adventure itself. The plot stopped dead in its tracks. After reading the umpteenth post about people petting a fluffy animal (in a "mature RP"), I jumped ship. I've seen before how "comic-relief" can kill plot advancement if overdone. So I hope people can see where I'm coming from.

Yeah, I can. Don't worry, Norak is humorless, so his responses will probably cut any overly humorous moments down.
