If all three posts were graded as 2s (which is not how that would work in any case) you would receive an RP grade of 2 for that day. No matter how many IC posts you make in a role play thread between cutoffs, you will receive one grade which will take into account all of the posts as if they had all been part of a singular post.
It should also be noted that after a certain point, posting multiple times in an RP thread between cutoffs would probably just be considered spam. I really don't see any reason why, at most, you would need to post more than twice between cutoffs in an RP thread.
But if you posted 3 RPs in one day (which is spamming pretty much) why would you only give a user a 2 when they put the effort in to make 3 posts?
What is the difference between posting 3 paragraphs in a single post, or posting a single paragraph in 3 posts? It takes no more effort to put it all in one than it does to make 3 posts.
To use an analogy, if you are given the task of writing an essay in school, and you turn in 2 pages not stapled together, is the teacher going to treat each page as a seperate essay and double your mark? That would be stupid, and unfair on students who know how to use a stapler.
