Alright... having seen these (http://www.ratemyserver.net/forum/index.php/topic,12669.0.html) three (http://www.ratemyserver.net/forum/index.php/topic,11185.0.html) topics (http://www.ratemyserver.net/forum/index.php/topic,12148.0.html), I've noticed people's views on RP servers tend to differ and vary in ways you'd probably expect. You have the "actual" roleplayer & the "watches too much anime and can barely type" and "LOL I PUT ON MY WIZARD ROBE AND HAT" mindsets. I myself have solely been involved with these kinds of servers and would like to hear what people think of them.
I would elaborate a bit more about how I personally feel about them and how I think most people do (based on conversations with people about the subject before), but I'd rather hear what others have to say beforehand.
