1. You advertised a Roleplay environment that was enforced, and when I logged in and started a character, I typed 'Who' and saw things like 'Rogan, the Hair-Slayer' and 'Elise-She Just Wants A Shag'. I was looking for an IC game- so I left this one.

I'm not a mud Admin, I'm just a player. But, I have noticed that a lot of the RPI/Mandatory Roleplay games really go out of their way to keep the 'Who' as an OOC command (if they even have one). My home game lists people by accounts, not by in-character name. If you were to see 'Rogan, the Hair Slayer', it would be an OOC commentary on their account name and no reflection at all on the quality of roleplay or an in-character name.
