| RULES |
This is a Role-play community for adult, mature players. Anyone that continually breaks the rules will be asked to leave by a moderator. And considering there are not very many, and all are fairly easy...I should hope there would be little reason to ask someone to leave.
|
| BE ADULTS |
| If you're not one, pretend. The moderators are not parents, nor do they wish to be anytime soon. If you have a problem with another player, attempt to settle it with them in a civil manner. If you feel uncomfortable doing this, or feel you can not reach agreement, bring the problem to a Mod. If you have an issue with a Mod, bring it to their attention, or the attention of another moderator. They don't bite. |
| ABOVE ALL, UTILIZE COMMON SENSE |
| Be responsible role-players. Know that actions have consequences, good and bad. In Character Actions = In Character Consequences. |
| BEFORE YOUR CHARACTER |
| …maims, kills, or otherwise severely affects another player's ability to play their character you should ask permission from that player. |
| AGE 16 OR OLDER |
| Due to adult content in the form of violence and implied sex, this community is 16 or older. All members are to send an age statement to the moderators. All threads containing Graphic Sex shall not be posted in the community. Please contain that to the character journals. |
| INACTIVITY |
Regular play is encouraged and expected in the community. We understand that not all members have boundless free time to devote to the game; however, we would like to see as much character involvement as they can manage. If a character is completely inactive for more than one month the character will be removed from the game and the PB put up for the use of other players. To rejoin the game you will need to post your application again. If you are sick, injured, or otherwise unable to get online for any length of time, but would like your character(s) held, please contact a moderator with a short explanation of why. Please note that extensions are made on a case-by-case basis, and there is no promise that one will be given.
A) Please note: If there is a continual pattern of inactivity, you will be asked to discuss any issues you might have with the moderators. This is to see what changes can be made to help the player become more involved or decide if this is or is not the right game for them.
B) Players also should not leave a thread for more than a week without replying. After one week of inactivity in a thread, the held up players may move their characters on with a brief explanation of how the meeting ended. |
| Non-Player Characters'S |
Non-Player Characters (NPCs) are acceptable, but on a limited bases. There should be no more than one or two NPCs for any player that will be in common usage, or re-occurring. Please do not use any fairy tale figures as your NPCs, however, nor any of the figures listed as 'mod run npc'.
|
| RESPECT YOUR FELLOW PLAYERS |
| No flaming on the board. Tact is the key to any open OOC Discussions on RP style or problems. Names and characters should NOT be brought up. If you have a particular problem with another player that cannot be worked out between the involved players, then bring it to a moderator. |
| CHARACTER PROFILES |
| Players are to update their user profiles as directed on the application page. This is for our sanity as well as the other players' and your own. |
