Since when is insulting a concept insulting people? I didn't say that the people who are into total immersion are stupid or call them names. I just said that I find the process to be asinine. It means silly...look it up. The annoying aspect come in to play when you try to deal with someone who won't break character. This doesn't just go for MMO games but pen and paper RPGs as well. Have you ever had to deal with someone in real life that won't let the chracter go? It get to be really annoying. I highly suggest you seek out the South Park episode because it does a good job of sending up the whole concept.
