1. This is an open forum. No bashing or trolling. This should go without saying.
2. Please deal with disagreements calmly and reasonably. If the problem persists, contact an admin and they will help you sort it out. You are advised to sort it out on your own first.
3. Please don’t post in all CAPITAL LETTERS. It interrupts the flow of the English language and can be taken the wrong way.
4. Keep swearing in all threads to a minimum. I’ll let you use your judgment, but we’re trying to keep the board PG-13. The same goes for swear words in other languages. We might have some plotlines going on in which your characters are in mortal peril, and anyone would let a few curses slip in that circumstance --- but if your character is dropping the F-bomb every other word, you and an admin will probably have words to see if we can work out the problem.
5. If you are going to be gone for a while, let us know. This also means if you’re going to be posting sporadically or you will be unable to post for a while because of life, please let us know as well. It’s also advised that you let those you have a plotline going with know so they can plan in advance for your character absence.
6. Please read the character and RP rules before posting.
7. If you want to plan out an event beforehand --- a monster attacking a nation, a murder mystery plotline, a fight, a romance, a character death --- we ask that you do so outside of the main RP area. There will be a place for plot discussion, but we ask that all inter-character relationships be dealt with outside. Private Messages (PMs) are the most available way of going about this. I personally also recommend you coordinate some sort of chat service with players you have a plotline with, such as Skype, Yahoo, or MSN Live. This is by no means required, but it can be a nice way to work things out ahead of time in extraordinary detail. Again, I understand that some people prefer more spontaneity in their RPing and that’s fine, but the option to plan out ahead of time is available and welcome since the RP should be fairly plot based.
8. When a character enters a thread, simply describe their entering the scene. When they leave, add ((*insert character name* Exits)) When a thread is dead, mark it with a code [THREAD END] (remove spaces)
9. Please keep signatures to a reasonable size. Character names should be included in all signatures, and if possible, linked to the character app.
10. Please listen to the Admins’ rules and final decisions. We are trying to help make sure play runs smoothly. If you have any problems, feel free to contact us. If you are contacted by an Admin regarding one of the rules, it is not an attack, simply an effort to make sure play runs smoothly for you and everyone else. Take it in the spirit it is intended and feel free to air any complaints or concerns with us.
11. Have fun!
