There are a LOT of cliques within the community, which is why I always play with the chat off. And as to the illiterate/literate topic, my view of a "literate" roleplay is writing in paragraphs and full sentences with proper punctuation and no emotes. Such as:
'Panting heavily, she narrowed her eyes at her opponent. "You're going down, Generic Bad Guy Name!" the lioness snarled, and lunged for his throat.'
And the "lunge" for the throat leaves room for her opponent to either dodge the blow or take it, instead of a "*bites throat* *dodges*"
I have nothing against those who prefer to roleplay using "**" actions, but if you're going to godmod like that take it to a party chat, not in local chat like I have seen some people do. It's just plain irritating to log on and see that before closing the chatbox.
