This thread is by no means an addition or alteration to the current rules, or a place for finger pointing. Rather a set of problems faced in the RPs, along with suggestions of solutions from you, the players.
I'll list a few of the problems for now, then edit this as we receive feedback.
Team ups -While fun and all, the bread and butter of some RPs. I'd like to suggest that team ups are discussed through PMs or the FAQ first, a forced team up by 'just running into' someone elses character may force them to completly redo their plans.
Plagarism of other players -Naughty naughty. Keep your characters and actions as different as possible. eg: *If two characters like to drink, it's alright. *If two characters like a gin and tonic with crushed ice and a slice of lemon, one of you is ripping off.

Oddly enough, It's either you and me teaming up or me and Cleon teaming up...Or god forbid me and Rakk teaming up.

Meh, YOu always seem to make it either very awkward or somehow...our characters become fallen for each other, which in its own way very awkward.

I thought that was because I'm usually the somewhat dim, but loveable Kurt Russel type.

Can I just add here that, considering standard average heights for people, I find it perplexing that all but two characters in the latest RP are over 6 foot high, and one of the two who are not over 6 foot high is six foot tall. Like, In reality I'm 184 centremeters, Which is slightly above 6 foot but not 6 foot 1, and I'm sure you guys are possibly all tall as well, but if we're all going to make people around the same height, couldn't we simply just establish heights as "Average (like, 5'10" to 6'2"), particuarly tall (6'5"+), tall (6'2" to 6'5", slightly=shorter-than-average (5'9.765")" etc.? In real life, nobody's height is a specific number, and I think to help prevent two characters being similar to each other as much as possible, this could help maybe? Not that I should get much opinion, not participating in many RPs myself

Probably my fault, throwing in my own height because I'm not a good judge of people heights in the first place, taking the lazy route.

My characters tend to be an inch or two taller than I really am. I don't see a big problem with the 6-footers, though. It's like casting the tall, good-looking people for the main parts in a movie.

I never really saw the need for listing the height of characters, to be honest. Unless you're going to be huge or short, why mention it? =p
