Larian Studios Forums General Chat Chat (Anything) Off like Germans ;-) .. :-D

IO think I have a reason why both English forum and German forum are so different :

- In the German Forum we are maily role-players.

- In the English Forum we are mainly the real people.

(Personally, that's why I tend to like the English forum more. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> )

So in the German forum we are constantly playing our role - partly what you can see as the Avatar - and that leads into our topics like the DRagon Race or the Vampire Race. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

The "Story" in the German RPG Chat is "On the Road again", a long, *really* long story, and very seriously made.

Also there we play our roles. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I think that's the reason why here are almost no topics like the Dragon Race, because people here are the *real* persons - and post like them.

This has also another impact : We had our infamous "lawsuit" against Alix, where in the process the borders between role-play and reality became blurred. No serious role-player should do that ! But in the end exactly that was used as a reason for ... well, what actually ? In the end it became a whole mess. I still shudder when I think of it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

Hre, we don't have this "border restriction", because everybody here posts like the real poerson. Which sounds more honestly to me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Maybe in a more sophisticated form of this Forum we might need a border between RPG behaviour and "real" behaviour, so that they don't get mixed up. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />


Alrik.

Edit : P.S. : In the German forum I play the role of a "Streuner", what would be not really a thief, but rather a strider like Aragorn, some sort of. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Used to make a living in towns, my character now shifts slowly into some sort of ranger. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
