Voicesets IC or OOC?

Unread post by Eclypticon »

I have seen people get very upset IC over things that are said automatically because of a voiceset and leave group. Not every auto sound is fully knowable before playing, such as the Matron for example. Should players be held responsible for what their voiceset says automatically rather than intentionally?

Personally, I don't hold players responsible for the voicesets because I perceive that they're used more to indicate the kind of voice a character uses rather than taking it literally. :lol:

However, it helps to get to know the lines a voice pack will deliver so as to avoid embarrassing issues.
