Rules

[thedadparadox]

1. Respect is needed in any community, especially a roleplay community. Treat others how you want to be treated, please don't discriminate against sexuality, religion, race or gender, if it ever does come up. If anything is heard about these things happening within the community, or outside of it that is related, it will be addressed with accordingly and dealt with. However, these things can happen in game. There is nothing wrong with that, as long as it isn't passive aggressive in some way OOCLY

2. It was mentioned a little above but don't cross IC and OOC. This means don't take what's done ICLY as something that is offensive oocly. Or use IC as a way to communicate oocly drama wise. This is game and should remain a game, not a place for drama outside of it.

3. Do not godmode. This means taking control of another person's character. You may do small things such as: 'They walked through the door.' Teeny tiny actions like that are fine but complete control of another person's character isn't roleplay, that's writing a fanfic. Don't do it.

4. This game is rated R, because there will be mature themes such as sex, violence, language and rock and roll. This means you must be 18+ to join. There are no ands, ifs, or buts about it. If you aren't 18 and older, don't even consider it. If we find out you're younger than you say you are, you and your characters will be booted from the game.

5. Activity checks will take place every month on the 30th of each month, you will need seven posts in a thread rather it be in the log or network communities. Yes, you can combine posts, if necessary. You can not use threads from a previous month however, or if you do, it must be finished or at least summarized at the end. But importantly, activity must always be new and in that month. Currently, activity will be waived for the first month.

Hiatuses happen. It's understandable. If you need to go away, do so. You have up to a month in order to do whatever it is that needs to be done, or if you're going to be slow, let us know too. For instance, if you're not going to be around much for a week but you will be, give us a heads up, but if it's like you won't be around much for three-four days, we really don't need to know because everyone gets backed up. People won't assume the worse, right away anyway.

However, if you're caught taking a month long hiatus, over and over again, we're talking constantly, then it'll be discussed with you by the mod. Because if you keep doing it, obviously you're not interested or don't have time for the game. You could be hogging a popular character that someone with time and interest could be playing. That's unfair.

6. I won't police all player plots, as long as they don't affect the entire community as a whole. If you want to do something like that, bring it to the mod and we can discuss. Things like pregnancy, relationships, sexualities and the like won't be policed. However, if I see an overabundance of something like pregnancies there will be a cap put on it. So, basically, if you, your bestfriend and your mama are getting their grills baby pumped and babies keep popping out everywhere? Yeah, no can do.

7. When posting to both Network and Log communities, it's important that you use tags. It's also important that you warn for mature and trigger happy themes and post in this format: who, what, when, where, warnings, status, before the actual post.

8. Most importantly. Please have fun! I didn't create this game for people to feel like it's a chore. If you feel like it is then come to me so we can talk. I'm willing to take suggestions, plot ideas and anything else into account to make this experience more enjoyable for you.
