the_logos will become famous soon enough
Yep, they all do. I'm not sure if you want to call it roleplaying or not but it is definitely very immersive and players take the political aspects of the game -very- seriously. They write constitutions, sets of laws, have trials, elections, conspire to throw people out of office, etc. It's great fun if you're really involved in the political side, whether that's at the religious, guild, or city level.

So, if I'm a member of the Shamans guild, which is not getting along with the city it is chartered in (Hashan) and I have a guild meeting to formulate a strategy to stack the Hashan ruling class with either Shamans or people sympathetic to us, but mention that I saw last night's Daily Show and found it funny, am I RPing? That's what I mean when I say I don't know (or care) if it's what people consider "RP". I'm just happy to see players taking the world and their positions in it seriously.
