Roleplaying is a whole new form of hobby, never really conceived until the end of the last century. Nevermind trying to integrate the internet into that. sure, there are analogies to be made with old-time storytelling traditions, but they aren't truly the same because they lacked rules and structure. They usually weren't framed as games, but rituals. For us, its both, and its hard to consolidate that with the medium we play in, especially when people so freely deviate from the style and theme of the core games in their own homebrewed TTs, without informing the players or maybe without even knowing themselves they're "not doing it right".
Its only natural we don't have all the answers, yet, is my point, and it bears effort and experimentation.
