The reason I don't RP on Valikorlia is the insane amount of arrogance that I get from their players EVERY time I log on. Valikorlia is xenophobic, plain and simple.

Maybe when the administration starts finding ways to get new players to stick around, such as reprimanding players who decide to go on ego trips when new players log on, getting jailed...Valikorlia will be playable. Until then, there is absolutely no reason for me to log on, seeing how there are much more accepting roleplaying communities across the web.

It is unfortunate, however, that Graal's roleplaying community is tainted by egotism and arrogance, because roleplaying through Graal could definitely have it's advantages than other mediums I've tried.

Agreed.

Many people don't like role playing as an avatar, and I'm one of them. Just because it is your opinion that its not different, doesn't mean it's my opinion as well. I type out a paragraph or more when I roleplay and I cannot typically do that on a single line chat bar where it is sort of inconvenient to need to look back at something.
That's also rather arrogant. :o Even if I did want to cyber, people don't have to be immature about it.

Just as well, needing a visual experience to experience Rp'ing MUST mean in my opinion that you lack some imagination. It's something me and my 10+ year roleplaying freinds joke about... If you cant RP in pm's then you must not be very a good rol...well...

Well, that's just not how people roleplay on Valikorlia. Really, guys. When you log on to Valikorlia, don't expect the rest of the server to assimilate to how you think they should be roleplaying. On Valikorlia, we use our avatars, not PMs.

If there are immature poos harassing you, tell a staff member. If they don't do anything, go to the GraalOnline support center and write as many complaints as you can about the staff member that didn't punish a player for harassing you. Don't sit there and bash a community that (a) you aren't a part of, (b) you don't understand, and (c) don't have the wherewithal to stick around and learn how it operates. You don't see me complaining when I log on Zodiac and get PK'd every time I step outside the OSL, or when high-level players try and show me 'where to get cool weps' but just attack me when I start following them.
