A useless flop who happens to be a noble and if you ever watched Caligula, being a useless flop never stopped thousands of useless flops from running kingdoms and holding positions of power. If Arcacea wasn't so bent on being a powerhouse, they might allow RP outside of dainty romance to survive in a mostly silent realm of over 75 nobles...Wonder why? Its because most of the realms nobles are there to 'win' and 'win' only.
No one stopped your RP's you obviously just didn't do anything to earn the respect or attention of those that had the power to elevate you. Like all realms there are more nobles wanting positions then there are positions and every realm has different ways to decide this. Least in Arcaea you don't need to be a long time friend of the Ruler to get anywhere. We played our character IN character, and it just so happens that Arcaea is a military orientated realm, thus those interested and able to demonstrate military ability tend to get promoted, as that is what our characters look for. There is no need to whine about OOC motives when there is a clear IC reason for being overlooked.
