1) I am severely under-confident about my RP and legitimately believe I am bad at it. Though I have never RPed in my life before playing this game, I am the type that will consign myself to ever be a failure at something if I am unable to do it correctly the first time.
2) I am highly uncomfortable asking people to RP most of the time, especially if they have a large network of friends. As someone who is generally not sought out by others for RP, I often wonder if those who agree when I ask are merely humoring me, or doing so begrudgingly. Knowing that RPers tend to be a more... passive bunch, I really do worry that sometimes I am THAT asshole. I enjoy roleplay enough that I have not ceased to ask people for it, but the worry that I am being a real pain in the ass, and not taken at all seriously, is always there.
3) I will not interrupt people who are conversing outside of the game, and I am extremely unlikely to do it in roleplay either. I feel it is extremely rude. Oddly, I do not feel this way when anyone other than myself does so.
4) Poor English and grammar does not bother me in the slightest, so long as a visible effort is being made. I find poor attitudes toward one's English particularly distasteful - consistently low-effort, one sentence RPers notwithstanding. Surely if you posses such a mastery of the language, you should be able to decipher the meaning behind the words of one who is ESL.
5) While I like to keep as close to the lore as I can get, I will roleplay with anyone, regardless of their character concept, at least once. Beggars cannot be choosers.
