Ok, this is more or less just basic little things pertaining to OOC/IC and MG.
Firstly, I don't know about the rest of you, but I myself have a tendency IRL to say "kk". I've had some tell me when I say that in IC, that it's OOC, but I fail to understand why, since it is something I say IRL, as an actual word. Do I need to type it like "Kay Kay" or something for it to be accepted? I just don't get it, since it's not like I'm saying stuff like OMG, or LOL. When I laugh, I do /me laughs, or I'll type out Oh my god, and so on.
On the topic of numbers and such. Say I have $3257, and I'm talking to someone about my savings account, is it alright to say something like... "Yah, I've managed to save a total of 3257 dollars in my savings account." or should I be typing out the full number in words? I naturally won't use abbreviations for stuff like lbs "pounds" or $ "dollars", I do spell those out.
Another question is pertaining to something like say... Paychecks and Lottery Tickets. I've seen as an example, someone say "Oh crap, I need to go buy a lottery ticket before the draw deadline." and someone say that's MG. Honestly, I don't get that, it's in game knowledge, your character knows the time, and that they need to rush for a ticket if they don't want to miss the draw, and the same type of deal when it comes to a paycheck, so... Is that MG? and if so, can someone explain why?
Sorry if these seem like stupid questions, but their seem to be people who have issues with a lot of things, and when you ask them to explain their issues, they don't give explanations, they don't try and explain how you should do it properly, and so on, they just complain about your lack of ability to RP, and I hate to sound rude but... Shit ain't gonna get better if you aren't willing to try and help people understand what they're doing wrong.
I've had a number of RP situations occur as of yet, and for the most part, the LSPD and SADVLA seem to be the only RPers I've encountered willing to help you understand how to deal with certain situations.
In the meantime, I'll continue reading guides on and off to try and learn more stuff I may not fully understand.
