Hey!
So, with the resurgence of team good, better known as team awesome, I wanted to try to get a feel for how RP conflict might be done in a way that is fun for all parties. Thus, I am asking publicly so that everyone can offer input and help me improve my RP. In the end, if the people I am trying to RP with don't enjoy the way I am trying to promote conflict then there isn't any point in doing it that way. So, in the interest of trying to start dialogue I will put down the ways I have seen others and the way some of my characters have expressed conflict.
Bodily contact. And not the Sunite sort either! This is the usually way I see team good express conflict with team evil. PVP can be tons of fun. It really can, but not every character is designed for taking their problems to the mat.
Manipulation. This is better known as diplomacy. I don't want you to do these things so I am going to attempt to convince you with words and deeds that you should just do what I want you to do. Typically, this also involves a lot of passive aggressive attacks.
Spying. The information dealer is great RP. You get to pick and choose how you want to target another player or faction just by gossiping. Tell the right person something juicy and watch claws come out and the fur fly!
There are lots of other ways of course but I am lazy so there is only three listed. Typically my good character uses manipulation. She can fight, and she has, but direct bodily conflict doesn't work well when you are not factioned. It is also seems counter productive to her goals. What ways do other people have their characters try to express conflict? Is there a way I can improve my own way and style of inducing conflict? What do people out there think?
