I think you always should use RPI if that is what you want to do. Just remember it is your definition of RPI not a global one. On the note of arrogant and elite. I don't have much of a problem with that if it is warranted. I hate to say it, but calling all other muds hack & slash would be akin to calling your defined RPI's MUSH's which is the direction you sort of go.

Let's face it, if you want paragraph long emotes, a set system of etiquitte to slow down roleplay, a lack of guilds and levels (even though I see no difference between guild levels and skill levels) and very limited combat, aren't you really just a MUSH with Permadeath and PK? And being a MUSH isn't a bad thing, just a different form of roleplay. Maybe call it MUSHI (MUSH Intensive?).
