Well I think the "RP encouraged" muds tend to provide support or rewards for roleplaying, while the "RP accepted" muds simply don't care whether you RP or not.

I suppose that means that "RP None" should mean "You're not allowed to roleplay"? But that seems rather silly...I prefer to think of it as "This is not designed to be a RP mud in any shape, way or form". GW2 is designed to be a non-RP mud, but I wouldn't object if people WANTED to roleplay - as long as they didn't try to force it on other people.

Of course in practice many people make mistakes on listings, and not just about RP.
