Being sick really muddles my mind, it seems :o(
After another 20 hours of sleep with very little to eat over the last two days, my stomach and bowels seem to have normalized themselves...

- IC items at the Charity Auction.
That's just so wrong, IMHO. It's grossly unfair towards players on a budget (and most Cammies are). Paying OOC money to buy something you should gain through roleplay and IC actions is something I simply can't accept. It's Cheese to its highest degree. Imagine an IC conversation: "Hey, where did you learn that from?" - "They just taught me". No way...

There was something else I thought of while still in bed and now it's gone. Argh

Note, you get the teacher, your ST can still shoot it down.

Course then you pay money expecting something and don't get it? Gah.

Anyway, if it helps. No IC items will be for auction for SERE events while I am RST, and CAN stop it. Just does not seem right, and those that have less money get the "shaft" if you will.

OOC Cash = IC Benefit?

Glad to hear it, ooc cash for IC stuff... just wrong, imho.

Baring membership to a society, but thats 1 fixed cost for everyone, once a year.

I remember a full contact larp system that I encountered at Gencon around 5 or so years ago, their generation system was based entirely on how much cash you paid for your character, something roughly like 5 pounds got you 10 character points - or something. The thing was it was a limited maximums system and 50 quid got you everything you could ever buy. So you could start maxxed out, utter lunacy baseing it on money paid...

Now I can see it more at a convention. Like it? Nah, the "Rich" get the better toys already.

But in this organization, I do not like the sound of it, as was pointed out..where is the roleplay? Where is the work into it? Fair? I hate that word, but I would like to keep it consistant at least.

Then again comes the whole new thing of, some get stuff like that without roleplay....cause their friends PC just teaches them for no rhyme or reason *sigh*
