	'''<u>Low Roleplay (LRP)</u>''' and '''No Roleplay (NRP)''' occurs when there is little to no interest in roleplaying in good faith, nor is there any real intent to roleplay. The two terms hold the same connotation with the main difference being that LRP has marginally more effort involved with roleplaying. A player or action is said to be LRP/NRP if they conduct themselves as if they have minimal interest in contributing to the roleplaying environment, often breaking the immersion of other players.

	They are more interested in memeing, mechanics, and are self-indulgent in their behavior without consideration for others or their immersion. These players will face a quality control ban on the Main Server. Please note that if a player is so poor that they come off as LRP/NRP, even if they intend to be MRP/HRP, they may also face a quality control ban. So, using an excuse like your character is "mentally unstable" is invalid if your conduct comes off as LRP/NRP.

	For instance, you can say your character has minor psionic abilities, given reasonable constraints. You can use this in emotes to describe flipping a coin or pulling out a cigarette from a pack hands-free with your psionic powers, but you cannot do anything that would have a significant mechanical impact. However, you cannot say you can crush people at will, as that affects in-game mechanics and also falls in violation of Character Guideline #3.
