These are the basic guild rules for role plays. Role play creators may add more and elaborate on these base rules, but these rules apply to all role plays.
• Adhere to the TOS at all times.
• Adhere to the Guild Rules at all times.
• No romance or violence above a PG13 level.
This is actually something detailed in the TOS. Content above a PG13 level is not tolerated, this includes cybering and excessive gore. You may not state that a higher level than this is allowed, or encourage people to go above this limit in PMs, or off site. This is also something documented in the TOS.
• No power playing, god moding, puppet mastering or autohits. If unfamiliar with these terms, definitions can be found in the role play guide.
• No over-the-top role play layouts.
Role play layouts and posts are meant to be readable and functional. If they comprise a large picture, lots of irrelevant icons and song lyrics, unreadable font colours, and only a small amount of text in relation to the amount of garnish, it does not seem at all pleasing to read. The actual role play text is the first and foremost priority. Aesthetics should come second to this, although they are not necessarily even needed. Font sizes should also be size 10 or higher, for user comfort.
• Adhere to the literacy level of the role play you join.
This means that if the person states they would like a paragraph minimum, this is what you try and achieve. We do like freedom here, but to have people posting on the expected level is appreciated, for everyone's sake.
• Adding on to the previous rule, adhere to the additional rules of the role play creator.
They will have placed extra rules for a reason. Unless these rules conflict with that of the TOS, or the main guild rules, then they should be followed.
• Have fun, and let the creative juices flow!
If you see a post in violation of these rules, please notify a member of crew. Thank you.
