Hi, guys! My name is Tollero! I'm uh, a bit new to the community, I guess- I've only been playing for... A few months, and I'm only on tier two ahahaha-
But! This post isn't about me and my tier troubles. It's about...
Wait for it...
Roleplaying!

Yes, roleplaying. Uh, as far as I know, it's a bit unheard of in Spiral Knights- at least, I haven't seen any around, but then again, I'm new to the community!- except for a group made up of me and my friends! We're a guild called Trollcops, and our entire existence in-game is to just have fun, get armor/weapons, and sit around in Haven and talk to each other icly until someone wants to go back down to the Clockworks.
Now, again, I don't know everyone's stance on it. But, er, from what we've seen, it doesn't seem to be too good! Or, it's just that no one knows we're doing it or... Well, there are plenty of things. But, the main thing is: People can be quiet rude while we're trying to get our RP on!
So, here's just some things about... Well, what's been going on, I guess, and how to prevent it!

1. While we're in our usual hangout spot- either that nice, cut-off area to the left of the fountain in the Town Square, around the actual fountain, or another area faaaar to the left(near the shield and armor vendors) in the bazaar- a lot of people just... Come up, and start being very rude to our members. Not coming up and just saying 'hi' and sitting down-we can handle people like that! They're welcome, actually- but asking for items 50 million times, or, er, pelvic thrusting in their face...
I'm sure none of these unhappy individuals actually come on the forums, but, still! My friends and I don't like moving around, and that's, sadly, what we have to do just about every day. :""""""(
So, uh, I guess, if you see a group of people sitting around haven, just chilling out and waiting for energy/talking: Don't be a jerk if you come up to talk! Seriously. We're nice to just about everyone, so. :C

2. If, uh, you couldn't tell from the name, we're a Homestuck-based roleplay guild. I don't know if Homestuck is a bit of a taboo here, but hopefully not! (For you fans of the comic, we have an Aradia, Droog, Slick, Crowbar, Jade... Uhhh... Tavros, Sollux... And I think that's it! And a few people just interesting in roleplaying not as a character. And, sadly, only the first three characters are on regularly. :C As for non-homestickers, we have Losty, Dok, Toll(me!), Bromona, Nix... Uhh, Umbra... Quite a few other people, ehe!) Anyway, one of our members mentioned that, once, while going about their own business, a fellow knight came up to them and just said they were 'sick of Homestuck being shoved everywhere.' They left before they could say anything else. Because of that, said member's feelings were hurt! Not too big of an offense, one might think, but we consider it pretty bad!
So, please, we're just trying to have fun here. Don't talk to us if you're sick of Homestuck,I guess. Please just ignore us and go about your business. We're not trying to get anyone mad or hurt anyone!

One moooore thing, before I end this post!
If you're interested in the guild or anything, there's a few people you can contact! We're always looking for new members, so. Our head officer (since we can't, uh, contact the actual guild leader) is usually on her character Apocalypseariisen (There are two I's there!) And, personally- while I'm only an officer on one character- I can be contacted either on Tollero, or Spades-Slick (mostly on Slick.) Officer Losty can also be contacted on LostyLosty!

Have a nice day, and good luck doing whatever you're doing!
