Within this topic is an enlisting of all the Right and Responsibilities that come with Membership to the Fresh Wave RP. By reading this you can understand the the code of conduct, obligations and freedom that come with being a Fresh Wave member. You might find the ethics most important to you are not upheld by site ruling, or conversely the liberties you would desire are encroached on by site rules.
I personally believe that this is the most commendable of any possible reason not to join Fresh Wave, and out of respect for that, the site is orientated to push both guests and first-time members alike to read this passage of social rules before anything else in the site, so as not to waste anyone's time.
Rights
- Every member of OPFW has the right to RP at Fresh Wave - This is not a site for any form of elitism or scorn for differing RP ability, niether is it a place for any required level of RP'ing. Members have the right to RP as little or as much as they please and without fear of mockery or judgement. Good taste people, please.
- Every member of OPFW has the right to use OPFW free of any form of Prejudice - Sexism, Racism and Fascism, just for the hell of it. Not for the cause of social reform or anything that gallant - I couldn't care less how you behave outside the forum, I just don't like seeing people use my site to plateau their warped personal agendas. Where am I supposed to put my pedestal? But I'm also told that people don't like being bullied and oppressed over ignorant objections and hatreds so... it works out pretty well all round.
- Every member of OPFW has the right to Freedom of Opinion - Fresh Wave is not a place for social reform. No one one the site has a right request or execute judgement against another member because of differing opinion or ethical values, even if those values are pretty horrid. Whenever a member is asked their opinion by any other member they have the right to answer openly. They given that right by being asked. It's that simple. If nobody asked, they were by going against the last written right referring to prejudice.
- Every member of OPFW has the right to fair assistance from Fresh Wave Staff - There will never be a time or place where it is appropriate for either a member or a staff-member to suggest or agree to withhold dealings with another. Staff of Fresh Wave do not show bias, positive or negative. Such actions will see said staff-member "Future Endeavoured" quite swiftly. Personal disputes have no place in professional matters, and that extends towards your Administration too. If you become a member, I become your Admin - irrespective of how we feel about one another. You should never feel that a personal dispute should inhibit you from contacting me if no one else. I'm a pretty apathetic guy. I don't have an ounce of interest in kiss-asses. I have no qualms in seeing all such associates removed from the site for the sake of a single member if that was the commensurate response. Even if that member hates me to the core.
Responsibilities
- Every member of OPFW has the responsibility keep OPFW free of any form of Prejudice - This is a personal responsibilities not to encourage or participate in Sexism, Racism and Fascism (just for the hell of it) on this site. This is not rule more than a risk. You take the risk when you say such things in the presence of others. This is because there will be certain relationships between members which are open for what would otherwise be labelled as "inappropriate" discussion. (Racy remarks and jokes and burns between friends for instance), however it is up to to the member to discern for themselves what is appropriate in current company.
- Every member of OPFW has the responsibility to separate personal issues from the OPFW - The staff-members of OPFW are not ambassadors, a government force. We're not even internet police. Members do not EVER use any part of Fresh Wave to progress any outside problems with other members. Professionally, I do not care. Period. Other Sites, MSN, AIM, Facebook, Chango - the circumstance is not relevant.
- Every member of OPFW has the responsibility to acceptance the consequences to their actions - The consequences of stepping out of line is that it inherently encourages others to do the same, whether to follow you in suit or to strike back in the same vein. At OPFW, the ideal that bad triggers worse is God. Punishment and penalty does not get thrust upon the worse, but on the first. There is no acceptable realm of depriving another member of there site-given rights or falling short of one's site-given responsibilities and no such act is justified because a more extreme act happens afterwards. The staff-members of OPFW will look to the source of problems as opposed to the biggest commotion.
