Back in around 2010 to 2015 I tried to RP in groups. Usually on Fanfiction.net forums. For a while Marvel/DC especially Young Justice forums were super popular. Being a solo roleplayer at heart though I never really fit in well.
One thing I remember that always irritated me is that when it came to group RP if you weren't one of the Admin's "friends" they didn't really care, and more than once I felt like I was in an antagonistic place because one of the Admin's friends would be rude to me, and yet their behavior was never admonished.
I remember one time for something that admittedly was crappy on my part the Mod of a forum sent me a pretty rude message. More than likely she acted emotionally, and sent her message without thinking clearly.
Even when I brought it to the Admin's attention nothing was ever done. The Admin didn't give her a warning for her rude manners. She didn't say anything like;
"While I appreciate your concern for X, you've made Su feel uncomfortable by confronting her in an overly hostile manner."
There was nothing. I never understood it.
And I do call my friends out. I'm lucky to have some pretty decent friends, but I am willing, and have called them out when they're being mean, or just rude to others.

Jesus, I've had issues like this. It's always hard to be new coming in to a group of pre-established friends I don't know how you are. But if it were me I'd pretty much tell everyone off, give the middle finger and go my own way. This is why I only roleply one on one with people.
(I'd probably negatively rate their fanficts too ahaha)

This is an interesting topic. To me, the vast majority of Americans behave poorly but I know that that is because I was raised elsewhere and the etiquette between my people and Americans tends to be complete opposites of one another.
You have to remember that responding to animosity with animosity doesn't get you anywhere. If someone offends you, the mature thing is to respond in a calmer manner and ask why whatever you did upset them--this also opens the door for you to tell them why what they're doing is bothering you, as well. If you deem someone as having poor behaviour, isn't that poor behaviour in itself?
But that's just my opinion on this subject.
Also, English is not my native language so my apologies for any mistakes.
