I remember that a while ago, I wandered into an inn, IC as my kindly old mad-man-mage. There was a trio of people, talking IC'ly and OOC'ly about how their characters were great people, and there should be more protagonists like them.
They then proceeded to turn around and shank my old man, who was sitting peacefully in the corner.
Me: *goes ooc after I die* So why exactly did you attack me?
Apparent protagonist: ((You're wearing purple, Zarosians wear purple.))
Me: But that character /wasn't/ Zarosian...
Apparent protagonist: ((My character has no way of knowing that.))
Mang, there was also dis one time, mang, when this girl was all like *sips water* and I pointed out that water was generally unsafe to drink in the medieval period due to waterbourne illnesses and parasites, so people would have been drinking ale like it was water, as the alcohol within the ale killed the parasites and illnesses, along with the brewing process.
People noticed that drinking water = death and drinking ale = Thirst successfully quenched, and acted accordingly by drinking mainly ale.
