1. The rules and regulations of the guild exist as guidelines for the purpose of ensuring there is no discord during RPs. By following them, you help to ensure that things will progress smoothly without the need for officer approval/mediation. 2. Our guild accepts members from many cultures and walks of life, please accept that not everyone will have the same values and customs as you. 3. If you haven't come to an admin with your troubles, as has been mentioned many times before, please do not wait until trouble boils over to report an issue. Come to us first. 4. You joined a roleplaying guild to roleplay, please remember that when you're asked to show up to something. If you don't like the scenario or situation, suggest a way to improve it instead of complaining about it. 5. To draw inspiration from something is acceptable, but do not lift characters from games, shows, anime, movies, etc. 6. Owners of characters without profiles who wish to affect anything important accept that Uprising reserves the right to nullify their impact on canon until they are profiled. Furthermore, it is encouraged that other members avoid important RPs with unprofiled characters. 7. Adding major new powers to a character requires consultation with admins beforehand for approval. 8. All characters wishing to affect canon MUST have a written, current, approved profile. Furthermore, characters must stick to their currently approved profile. Major changes should be run through an admin. 9. Profiles must contain all of a character's major abilities and powers, players wishing these not be revealed to the public must run the abilities through an admin for a check. Furthermore, no powers should be hidden from the admins. If you wish, you may submit documentation of anything you wish to keep secret to the admins for clearance, and it shall be kept private.

Rules of Conduct: 1. Respect everyone, guild member, RPer or not. Racial slurs and other such things will not be permitted at all. 2. Literacy is an absolute requirement. A bit of internet short form is acceptable in OOC chat, but 1337 speak and heavy chatspeak in IC or OOC chat will not be permitted. 3. Keep the discussion of sensitive topics (ex. religion and politics) private. We do not wish to hear of any conflict stirred up within and outside of guild chat by our members. 4. There is to be no excessive swearing and/or sexually suggestive speech. This is not to say that these things are banned, but please don't overdo it. Just because we've heard it before does not mean we want to hear it again. 5. Above all else, if someone says "stop," be they member, officer, or someone else, that means "stop." This is not because someone wants you to not have fun, this is because what you are doing is offending someone, upsetting someone, or bringing down the mood of the group.

General Roleplaying Rules: *1. No godmodding. Exceptions may be taken in cases where all parties affected publicly agree with the action. Godmodding is thoroughly explained here: [url of post featuring godmodding definition/examples, definition of a DM, and definition of metagaming] 2. If all members being affected by it agreed upon it, a member may play the world NPC for a particular RP session. If members object to the world NPC's behavior, their influence may be discounted. If issue arises, please notify an officer. The management of Uprising reserves the right to supersede the authority of the acting world NPC when applicable, and may also declare events of questionably intended, abusive, and/or rule-breaking nature non-canon. Please be responsible, and note that this is not an allowance to DM. *3. Abusive [metagaming] is disallowed. <-Perhaps thar be link to thread again. 4. Abide by all canon posted within The Library, and all public content posted by admins (such as World Modifiers). 5. Your OOC character in Mabinogi has absolutely no bearing on your IC character. 6. IC speech is written normally. 7. OOC speech is written in (parentheses) or [brackets]. " 8. No emoticons or abbreviations in IC. Ex, Use *Laughs* instead of "xD LOL." 9. Actions can be written in either *asterisks* or –hyphens-. 10. Unless said otherwise, mail and world chat is IC, notes, guild chat, and IMs are OOC. 11. RPs designated as private are to be respected as such- you may not in any way ICly involve yourself in these without permission. OOC observation is generally accepted, but take care not to confuse what you've heard OOCly with what you know ICly. Furthermore, unless explicitly stated all RP, private or not, utilizing any guild-acknowledged characters is assumed to be canon and must abide by the guild's rules as well as what is outlined in The Library. 12. Regarding the Mabinogi storyline: You are -not- the savior of Erinn, or anything of the sort. You did not experience the story firsthand. The events of the storyline are in the past, and if your character has knowledge of said events it is via hearing/reading the story. Do be reasonable, and note that many things would indeed not be recorded in respected history books. 13. The gods in Mabinogi do exist, but they are never to directly interact with players unless a DM allows the specific instance. OOCly at least, don't confuse the power of faith with divine intervention. 14. There is to be absolutely no sexually oriented public RP. Romance is fine, but if you want to take it further take it into private. 15. Uprising is -NOT- an actual IC organization. 16. If you think any of the actions you or anyone else takes may be questionable, please consult an admin as soon as possible. |
