I do believe that a game can not be enjoyed, when OOCly no one enjoys it. To a degree, it has to be a pleasant environment both IC and OOC.
GMs are just people too, they can be wrong.
If you remember back to what Meiaquar was during that time period, then I am sure you remember that it was hard to even find a single person there RPing. that part became alot better after the fact. Its Ingenious to claim that RP is not a effort in both IC and OOC to make it a pleasant experience for everyone. There will ALWAYS be atleast a little OOC Motvation. For example "I want to have fun!" or "Hey there is a problem I want to fix so we can have fun." Disregarding that is kinda...Contraproductive.
Always Remember that we are playing a game.
