Question Re: Dealing with RP Attention Hogs

I find this problem pretty alien.

If people are roleplaying, it's assumed they're in-character, right? So why aren't they dealing with these attention hogs in an in-character manner? Confrontation and (IC) drama is core to roleplaying and indeed any sort of fiction, why avoid it?

I understand that admin may want to avoid OOC drama, but if players are unable to separate IC drama and conflict from their OOC selves then they need to be coached on it - the inability to separate IC and OOC events, actions and feelings is a bigger detriment to truly excellent roleplay than any loudmouth can ever hope to be.
