-=== So what is IC then? ===
-The [[acronym]] IC stands for "''I'''n '''C'''haracter".
+'''Out of character''' comments are frequently marked by using the emote chat system.
-Basically whenever you are role-playing you are "In Character". It is a good thing to note that when a person acts like a jerk or starts flirting with you, it may have nothing to do with the actual person behind the [[avatar]], just how the character would act. It is wise not to become offended by anything someone does "In Character".
