Player Responsibility, Page 2
  by transmitt
Every time you create a character, you should ask yourself if this is something that you're going to want to continue playing. If your desire to play is currently waning, you should reevaluate your reason for creating. With enough experience, you should develop an idea for the type of roles that you enjoy to play the most, and you will better be able to create roles that are interesting to you. But maybe when you created you thought you could play the role without ever getting bored. Fall for it all the time myself. So, you're bored, you want to delete, but you don't want to screw the people who depend on you. What do you do?

Change something up or add something. And by that, I mean change something about what your character does. Maybe you should think of a story arc to make your character more interesting, and try to play it through. If you've achieved all of your goals, think up new ones. It's not hard, but it does take a little bit of effort on your part. I've found that when you put effort into something, you often start to care about it a little more. So instead of deleting your shuddeni void scholar, who knows just about everything there is to know, start working to have him turned into a lich lord. The only limit to what you can do in Avendar is your imagination!

The ultimate decision to delete is yours and yours alone. Nobody is going to stop you from deleting. Beg you, offer you bribes, have your children, yes. But stop you? Nah. In the end it all comes down to how responsible you are. If you delete because things are hard , because you don't want to play anymore without regards to other people’s characters, then you'll get the reputation as being unreliable and that's not a reputation that you want to have. But the choice is yours. Me, I'm going to try my best to be a responsible player.
