Where is the RP at? Etc.

So BGTSCC is an RP server, medium or whatever. I enjoy playing on the server but there is a couple things that ruin the immersion of the experience.

First off, I was with a group, 3-4 players and we were walking and RPing, more than the typical BG player where you RP in town which usually consist of, "I'm an awesome dark clad knight care to go kill giants?" and that's about where the RP ends.. Either way.. We 4 players slowly going through this one cave, again actually RPing, and these 2 players come running in behind us, type" Hi" and then loot our newly dead foes remains... and go ahead of us killing everything in 1 hit(clearly way too high for the zone). Like seriously..

Next adventure, I was out with 3 players RPing a bit more casually than normal and moving through the Gnoll Cave. We come across a player with a Torm cloak, and saying things like, "With Torm's blessing,, blah blah", and healed himself back up with lay on hands and that's fine, but what I have an issue with is the guy he is partied with has a zombie warrior, and talking about Myrkul......, is anything enforced?

DMs cannot be everywhere at all times, so I have 2 recommendations for you.

1. Stealing loot from corpses that you killed violates the rules. Take a screenshot and get the character/login names, then send the screen shot and details to the DM Team for review of the matter.

2. I would highly recommend you react IC'ly to how your character would react to a Tormite being buddy buddy with a Myrkulite who has summoned an undead. It may be that the Tormite is simply disguised as such and you could IC'ly call out the disguise. You could even screenshot any RP that comes of it and make a forum post in one of the IC sections such as Rumors of the Sword Coast posting a "description" of the false Tormite.

Now, again, if the duo OOC'ly runs off without responding to the RP then you have your screenshot and should send to the DM team. With evidence said Tormite might very well fall (if a paladin) which could require the player to RCR their character. If not a Paladin the character may get evil points or even lose the ability to cast spells if Torm is unhappy with the unholy partnership.

TLDR; yes, things are enforced. However, we the players have the responsibility to do our part to enforce the lore as the only way to enforce anything is to make sure other players are respecting the campaign/server setting.
