I play Armageddon, which has permanent death. Most players don't have very long-lived characters - anything over a RL month I'd say is considered a bonus. I've been lucky in that almost all of my characters have lived longer than that, and one made it to around 9 months before she finally got whacked.

While I'm playing a role, I tend to get as deep into the role as I possibly can. It's almost like osmosis. But what keeps me from being devestated, or having "too much" of a personally emotional tie to my character, is knowing that I'll have a chance to do something really neato the next time around, and fall in love with the game all over again.
