Your usual rules:


1. Don't Leave Anyone Behind. AKA wait for your fellow roleplayers to post and catch up.

2. Try Not to oneline unless you have writer's block.

3. No inappropriate content please!

4. NO GODMODDING!(For example killing off characters for fun or never being hit and always dodging attacks etc..)

5. Most of all have fun!


((If anyone else has some rules they would like added just mention them and I will get on it!))

Another thing:

OCC: (out Of Character)

If you need to speak out of character in the RP be sure to use Out of Character (OOC). That way the people participating in the RP can tell what's part of the RP and what isn't.

It's for speaking out of Character...like if you want to ask one of the other players of the RP something you can use OCC to tell them. Just be sure to separate the OCC from the actual RP somehow...either by Brackets () or anything really. as long as that symbol isn't used in the RP

I think I could add some more rules:

6.) OOC Topics: You probably want to add an OOC topic before actually starting an IC topic (In other words you should probably have an outline for everyone and make sure you have people willing to rp with you before you actually start rping)

7.) Spam RP: A spam rp is basically one line posts that go from person to person b and even to person c only doing one line at a time. If you want to spam rp then use the spam section because this section is for those who want to rp with at least a paragraph or more.

8.) Types of RP: When creating an rp you should have a general understanding of what the rp is going to be about (science fiction, realistic, ect..). Make sure you either state this in the title when creating an OOC or in the description so those who are interseted know where to check for the IC thread.

9.) Premade RP: Premade rp's are were the characters are set by the creater or the GM (game master). If a premade rp is made then this must be stated so the people interested know they cannot creat their own characters for that rp.

10.) Listen to the Game maker: The maker of the rp cannot control all aspects of the game but does have the right to have players change their characters for better or to weaken them ( a game maker cannot descriminate against individual players) . The game maker also has the say in who can join and who cannot but cannot make people leave once the game has commenced. If a game maker complains to me or any of the other staff about a players activities then we take action only if we have proof of breaking any of the rules of the rp or the forum.

11.) (yes I stated this again and it is only because this is the most important rule) Most of all have fun: I know there are a good amount of rules but I or the others will only be enforcing the more important ones more often, but this is no excuse for any complaints made to me or the other staff. In such events. I or the other staff member involved, will try to resolve the conflict.

12.) Adult rping: At a later date rules on this may be posted once confirmed by the staff. Until then keep swearing down but you can swear just not excessively, cybering or anything close to it is not allowed in the rp, and any explicit picks posted for an appearence must be censered or not put up (the staff has the descression here).

13.) Grammer and Spelling: Try to use spell check when posting in the rp, and try to use the best grammer you can. I know people have problems with grammer and spelling but I am sure you know that it is what and not wat or it is that and not dat.

If we are scared of the dark because of what we can't see, then why aren't we afriad of the light that blinds us?
