Yes, but I think many people agree with me when I say it's better to not try to roleplay in toguilds or MM's, and save all that effort for the in-game screen. Some things make sense for having to present in a toguild. For example, it's a waste to try to have roleplaying in PM's/toguilds/or masses like "Greetings, Knight James Redson. I bring goods from the east. I will sell you this magic ring which posses the power to <insert long explanation of what a complicated ring would do> for a mere five thousand platinum coins. *displays the ring, grinning with pride*" That's roleplaying...but it really isn't needed for PM's, and if someone is accross the world and you're RPing that you're offering them this item, you can see where the "bad RPing" comes in. It would be better to not waste time and just talk OOC, and say he's selling a "Ro_ for __ plat". However, let's say a high official were to make a long announcement/speech to all the people of the kingdom. It would be nice for after each line he sends, he were to send that same line in a mass message for everyone to see (For interested roleplayers around the "world"), or in a toguild for people who read slow or went AFK. Of course, it would work just as well (and be hilarious) if you were to not re-display the speech either, and you'd have a great RPing reason by saying "You should not have fallen asleep during my speech! *smacks him with royal sceptor*" *sighs with a tear* RPing is so fun....
