We have a major boy who cried wolf issue on this server, because, get this, some people do actually have to go eat during important roleplay. It may seem like we're just trying to escape, but no, we're going to eat.
Or maybe when you know you know you are going to have to go eat you could leave 5 minutes early so even if something does pop up you can play it out then still have time to go eat it is no one elses fault you can't budget your time
I've been in important roleplay for like 30 minutes and I had to leave for dinner, it's unavoidable when your mum is screwing at you because your dinners getting cold :/
