Fail roleplay, or FRP, is a term used in role-playing games to describe a situation where a person fails to roleplay properly, whether that be through going down an unrealistic route in history or intentionally breaking character. Fail RP can have a negative impact on the gaming experience for all players involved, as it can ruin the immersion of the game world and break the sense of realism that is so important in role-playing games. Examples of Fail RP include depicting a character being shot without showing the effects of the injury, continuing to play without acknowledging and depicting injuries sustained, ignoring in-game requirements such as hunger and thirst levels, and breaking character by shouting out of character information or stealing from other players. In general, Fail RP refers to actions that are unrealistic or hurt the roleplay experience of other players.
