The Rules of the RPG
These are the rules that MUST be followed in order to role-play in this RPG. We’re not trying to be mean or strict, we’re just doing our best to keep make sure that everyone is being fair, and that they have fun. These are the current rules that will be posted and used until the staff notices other actions that are not accepted and will be added to the rules. Our main priority, is for everyone to have fun, and are treating others the way you would want to be treated. And for that to happen, we please ask you to read these rules before you start role-playing to know the do’s and don’ts of role-playing.
Spamming
This rule is one of the most important on this website. Spamming is absolutely not allowed. We don't accept abbreviations that are normally used on other virtual or non role-playing related websites; like, "BRB", "LOL", "G2G", etc...and posting stupid, annoying and pointless posts and comments like, "Hi!", "I like waffles." or "I'm bored." and sometimes, splling lyk tis, (spelling like this) is not allowed either. Also using faces made with letters like "e.o", "" "" are not used on the forum either. Spamming could lead to a temporary ban, or punishment. If you do it once or twice, you will get a warning note, and level. And on the third time, you will get a temporary ban. But if it continues, you are sure to be permanently banned. If you accidentally post something on the wrong board, erase it immediately please.
Advertising
Advertising is not allowed here. Only because it is also very annoying for the people who are trying to enjoy themselves by role-playing. An example of advertising is saying something like, "Go to my website so we can do this" or "Let's go to this other website that this website doesn't have" and so on. Selling items or domains over posts is not allowed either. And begging, is the same as advertising too. Inappropriate advertising over the role-play posts like, asking to have pups, or saying that you’re a boy looking for a mate. This may lead straight to a permanent ban. Any other kinds of advertising will be recognized by staff and will be given a warning.
Undefeatable Characters
No character is perfect; every character must have one weakness or flaw.
Your character may be strong, big, muscular, etc...But everyone has at least one weakness. You don't have to put your weakness (es) on your biography. You can keep it to yourself and it will be revealed during role-play. It's always best to have at least one weakness; because sometimes, when you're in a battle, it goes on forever! And it's best if you be the mature one and say that you fell to the ground and started to bleed, or that you started to die. Something related to getting injured so these battles won’t last for the whole time that you’re role-playing. You won’t get banned for breaking this rule; but you might get a reminder about it.
Abusing, Harassing, and Teasing
This rule is strictly prohibited; only because this rule is broken and caused very often over the internet. It’s easier to say mean and abusive things on-line because you’re not telling them face-to-face. Abusive role-play actions or comments are not allowed. It’s very hurtful and inappropriate and may cause a lot of trouble. If you see someone breaking this rule, report them or send me a PM right away. Harassing is another big thing too. Examples of harassing are making fun of some ones’ species, color, gender etc…Teasing may be funny to you, but to other people, it’s just plain mean. Sometimes, you can tease about something that may be funny to the both of you, but don’t tease about someone else. That’s gossiping, and it is not tolerated on here either. You can tease once, but once you go over the line, the person who you’re teasing about will probably let you know. Breaking this rule will lead to an immediate ban.
Power playing
Power playing is when you control the other players’ actions. This is not allowed either. It’s not fair because you don’t know what the other player is going to say. Here is an example; Harry punches Jake in the stomach and he rolls off the cliff. Harry is controlling Jakes’ actions before he can say his sentence. Once you write your role-play sentence, let the other player go next so it will be more enjoyable that way. Breaking this rule will lead to a reminder. But after three reminders, there is a chance that you may be temporarily banned.
These are the rules that I have put to make sure that every one that has signed up to role-play, enjoys their experience on this game. If you have any other ideas for more rules, send me a PM or post on the Information and Questions board and I will see if it’ll work.
