Well, we can hash out more of the rules between us, but for now, I'm just going to lay out a few rules so we have SOMETHING going for us, eh?
1) Respect eachother!
This means you! Alright, it's ok if your character doesn't like someone elses character, in fact, it works for the dynamics of the game when you have conflict AND relationships, so that's all fine and good. But out of character bashing and downright being mean is not acceptable, especially on the boards. If you have a problem, keep it in private messages. If you can't come to a solution, get an admin to help mediate the problem!
2) Get to know the game
It's great that you want to join! But please, we've been putting a lot of effort into putting this world together, so try to go along with what we have set up. We are always open for new ideas, just don't tear down the structure we've sweat and toiled to build. ^_^
3) Be decent.
People cuss. People have sex. People do horrible things. That's the reality of it all, and if you want to add these demensions to your character that's fine but PLEASE try to be tasteful about it... I'd rather not see posts that have 'f' this and 'f' that in every sentance. And as far as the nookie goes, if you gotta have it, PM a moderator to make a LOCKED board for you, so that way no one just waltz's in there none the wiser. It's all fun and games until someone pokes and eye out. Why did I just say that? I'm not sure. Just seemed like a good time to say it.
4) GRAMMER! SPELLING!
My god these are wonderful wonderful blessed things to have!! And you know what? When you post, there's even a spell check for you! Isn't that dandy? ^_^ Please use it. Please. Please.... pleeeeeeaaaase... some of you might be good with reading 'creative spelling' but I'm not! And I know there's people out there like me. I know it. We're watching you >_> .... but anyways, keep that net slang down to a mimimum... like... none-exsistant if possible... the occasional 'lol' is ok in OOC talk but NEVER in RP... please.
5) No God Moding!
If you have any RP experiance, you know what God Moding is... when you decide to take the fate of everyone in your hands and make your character uber powerful and SMITE THE PATHETIC FOOLS WHO STAND BEFORE YOU! *cue lightning background and deep laughter* .... ok, so, basically, don't do that. ._. Having character's with weaknesses can be a LOT of fun to play, and it gives them more demension. No one is all poweful, despite the many 'educational' episodes of Jerry Springer you might have subjected your defenseless and unsuspecting mind to. If you are in a battle with someone, try to hash out in a role play plot thread or in private messages what you want to go down. If you can't come to an agreement, if I have to, I'll roll some friggin' dice for you and tell you how it goes down ^_^ Better hope I don't roll a critical miss.
we can come up with more later @_@ I thought having a few would be good for now though.
