It's getting funny how people are against this concept so heavily.
Yes. This is what one would call the basis of proper roleplay. I think we all know this well! Now a -very- hefty question regarding that: How many of us practice it? How many people go into a spar daily in well terms of PvP, are stricken down harder than a mountain or worse, and simply flop down without any sign or sort of wounds on them? How many times do people tend to disregard any of that and just focus on 'fighting' itself while neglecting the other end of things? Surely I am not the only one who has seen a majority like that. The point is that I can see why people find this concept alluring; the weight and actual sudden nature of it brings tension. It brings a more strict element of excitement usually neglected or barely exhibited in most cases.
Other than that? My opinion matters little here other than just pointing this out personally. The entire thing is a -concept-, a way to promote a type of RP that either some neglect to fully commit to, or just don't follow. It is an idea that people can use, or just disregard entirely freely at their own leisure. No one is forcing another to use it, frankly a majority can just disregard it. So whichever one chooses, have fun! That is all that matters in the end.
