Erik did it, Anaris. You know the difference, I hope so. He is a character acting as his behavior. Implying "I" did it, that would be OOC.

Yes, I get that. It's a convenient shorthand, and doesn't change the issue. When the rules of the game are involved, it doesn't matter whether it's something that you do IC or OOC—characters can't break RL rules, only players can, and this is a rule that can only be broken IC in the first place.

Either way, that's a semantic matter, and a distraction from the real issue.
