Server Suggestion "Open to roleplay" tag

[exrobite]

Suggestion Title: "Open to roleplay" tag
Suggestion Description: Adding a togglable tag for citizens that lets other players know they are up for being engaged in extended roleplay or silly messing around scenarios. While using the tag, players would be unable to grow drugs. Obviously server rules still apply.

Why should this be added?:
- Consent in roleplay is an important thing and for the autistic membership of perp (and just in general,) it is difficult to guage someones willingness to engage in silly behaviour.

What negatives could this have?:
- This is kind of metagaming, but I argue that not all metagaming is bad. Some degree of OOC communication is helpful in the cultivation and safe execution of roleplay scenarios. DnD has a session 0 for a reason.

What problem would this suggestion solve?: It's hard for likeminded roleplays to find each other sometimes. Everything is interpreted through the same PvP lens. The server is very insular at times and this help fix that for some players.

This idea sounds weird and freaky there is alot of underaged and kids playing on the server most of the community and players are 17 or 16.. that would be useless as you can literally call each other and find the other party like that

It wouldn't literally be called that but something like "Open to roleplay." or something similar like helpers and staff can do with "Ready to help."

As someone who got kidnapped and worked in a sweatshop yesterday, I would have this tag on at all times.

Instead of a title just make the name dark green or some shit to imply it, just think a title is a lil much

if the purpose of this is so you can be looser with the rules and have "minge rp" moments more im all for it.
once it gets to 11pm its luck of the draw whether both parties are willing to have a laugh or still want to rp seriously

Any kind of indicator works really, the more subtle the better perhaps

Yeah we need something like this. Some people you try to roleplay and they just stare at you confused or annoyed.

Love the idea. I get quite into the RP side sometimes and do silly stuff, always a good laugh but like the OP said, sometimes people aren't really open to it.
