I know I really enjoy Darminian's stuff. But I've never RPed with him. That's strictly a reader's perspective.
As far as actually rping with people, Vanil's the person I've done the most of that with. And that's almost always some kind of pleasant or else I'd tell him to eff off.

In what sense? Commitment to Character? Story Arcs? Personality? Spelling? 
Haven't had the most experience with all the rp's, but Tranque seems to be pretty darn commited to character and if Zippy is still around, he was always a good laugh from what i saw.
I'm probably biased, but I'd have to say that Tranque, my co-leader in Familia Grigori, is the best RPer I've seen in a very long time. You never know what he's going to throw at you next, and those mini-missions of his are always a blast.
Aside from that, I love Barnsley's character and how he presents the next chapter in his story: I've said it elsewhere, but Barnsley is practically the Barney Fife of the Matrix and he's always good for a chuckle -- but don't underestimate him: there's more going on than meets the eye, and I'm looking forward to where he takes this...
Void, when he can be found.
Otherwise, anyone from the Daniel Institute of Dream Interpretation.
I have to agree with Dul... Kind of an open ended question.
One of my personal faves though is Barnsley. Never seen him break character for anything. And the amusement. Classic.
I was just being funny with this thread, but it's actually popped into a serious discussion!
I'll go ahead and give ourselves a pat on the back. The Trust is the finest collection of RPers I've ever had the pleasure of playing with. Every character has a great backstory and I'm loving how all the current RPs are tying into each other.
Outside of the Trust, I'd have to say Void. I really miss the old pre-server merge Devil's Advocates RP the most, though. Back then, I think they really framed what it was to be a Merovingian operative. None of this exile/lesbian vampire RP that ran rampant in the Gothique days. They were a two-timing, backstabbing, crime family... the kind of people you could see associating with someone like the Merv, treating him like he's the Godfather. I miss Return, Coraxian, and Kabell.

Quoted for truth. Between Turnabout, Redemption, Extrication and Stockholm, everyone's just weaving in and out of each other's threads like crazy. Plus we have a number of other unrelated backstories and margin arepees going on as well. I love it.
And while I've only read Void's latest stuff, he's definitely a noteworthy part of the the Next Renaissance forums that I enjoy.

Anybody from pre-civil war DA gets my respect. Tranque's RP, to be blunt, annoys the crap out of me, although I'm probably biased by his confusing style of never making alts for his alts... and that I don't enjoy his holier-than-thou OOC attitude.

Zippy to be quite frank, I never was really quite OOC with you, when I am ingame 90 percent of the time I am tranque. Secondly your RP style consists of you pretending you have paws from time to time..
..
Time out, boys. If you need to dicuss this, take this to PMs, please and thanks.
Man, I feel like a referee or something. :: Laughs::
EH, I'm not quite in the mood to defend myself from opinions, my favorite RPers have to be all of the algorithm black team, for creating an immersive and wonderful experience.
And yes that includes zippy, as I read the credits and believe his name was... somewhere in there.

There were credits? o.O
I miss all the old Camon C crew. They were the best in my opinion. Minus Ebola. Never could take Ebola seriously 

Tranque without a doubt, i've never had such fun RP'ing with anyone else.

That's other people. I'm only ever a squirrel OOC. ;P

Void - writing
Sieges - multiple personalities
Tranque - Fresh and clever
For my money: Phrack overall.

Mm, Void has some of the most jaw-droppingly great writing I have ever seen, and you never know what Tranque is going to throw at you next, which keeps the Familia on its toes in a good way.
Hee, I have to give credit to WGAnubis (miss you, Pops!) for helping me create Sieges's dark side, Morraeon, as well as giving me a few tips for the transformation sequence between the two personas: jackout>Noninfectious Flame Virus effect>change clothes from Sieges's cutely conservative gear to Morraeon's Gothic sexiness>Detection device effect, then going from ./mood casual to ./mood cocky. But now Morrae has been teased out of Sieges's head and into her own RSI (ie. I have an alt for her), so the two no longer tag-team an RSI.
sgtclunk

Edit: Added epic picture for emphasis.
Algorithm Black team, Mega City Police Department, GreatWyrm and some of the old Devil's Advocates including Sieges; Tranque, Austrian, Chemuel, Garu, DigitalSpirit, Darminian, Vesuveus, the Bazman sisters on the rare occasion they argh peaghed, EndlessVoid.
Also, a composition of individuals and factions lost to the code, yet without which there would not be as immersive an environment and atmosphere which makes the stories that much more fun to watch unfold and to be a part of.

Yus.
On another note: GreatWyrm and Return. Neither of whom play anymore.
And come to think of it, neither do I.

EDIT: Oh yes. And Chemuel, of course. I reared her, the dame.

Epic win right there.
As for best RPer... Names that come to mind are TheGreatWyrm, Vanil, Phrack, Sieges, WGAnubis, Fenshire, Chemuel and of course... the good doctor Iovai!
...Sorry Tranque. He came first.
xJesusx.
And, of course, GamePlaya3159. EnterTheFenix is a close third.

That was when he quit. But he resubbed after 3 days and came back. You know, after he died, he had his brain overwritten with a program exactly like him so that he was still sort of kind of the same person.

Quitting but then rising from the dead overwritten by a reinstilled sense of faith but still essentially the same person?
If roleplaying the Second Coming as xJesusx isn't dedication to "canon material", I don't know what is.

I lol'd.

There have been many . . . does longevity or forum presence translate to best, current or past?
As for current, I dunno . . . I guess I'll go with Phrack , Fenshire , Mave , Garutachi maybe , and of course , Foxxdie ! They're all definitely up there IMO.
To be fair, I never saw xJesusx do any water-walking. So I'm going to hold my vote for now. >.>
Vote goes in for Void and Fen. Very few can compare.

Delinquent was the best Cypherite roleplayer, and did the part perfectly.
