Wait for it. Sort of.

Every time I change something about the character, it's further from the original design, and therefore ever-more indicting of how bad the original idea was in order to require so much refinement. This isn't IC gaining of experience and letting it shape you - it's fundamental errors at character creation that make what you portray simply wrong.

My characters do not define their limits. I do. Unlike some people who are able to shift into a different mindset entirely and be someone else, the vast majority of my roleplay isn't spontaneous. The script writes itself half a second before I speak it. The characters do not talk to me, bounce at me, live in a portion of my head or make their own ideas. I do.

Ergo, some of the fault has to be mine when I believe my character has insulted someone - whether I actually have or not.
