follow these:


1.) no GOD-MODDING ( GM ) no one is invincable, everyone has a weakness, yes violence between members is allowed, but again, no being invincable.
2.) no sexual content, take that to PMs only
3.) dont spam or use text talk, a small amount is ok but not : k c u l8r
4.) please use the ' introduce yourself ' forum before useing the RP forums, it saves people from getting confused about your character.
5.) have fun, and remember the rules

Im also going to be going around correcting peoples spelling aswell, if i see a problem.

you dont have to follow the ones below, its just to help if you dont know how, or need tips on how to improve your RP skills


1.) Good punctuation and grammar is key, however, we are all still human and mess-ups will happen. Don't stress if you don't have spell check or anything, usually look up the word or try your best. However, text talk is frowned upon when used in roleplaying and should be avoided at all costs.

2.) Roleplaying is almost writing a book with multiple people. You should try not to use any action symbols when describing a character's action. Just type it. What are action symbols? The star, *, dash, - and the squiggly line, ~.

3.) Quotation marks are always important when your character speaks, use them.

4.) Third person is used when roleplaying. No using, "I", "We", "Me" in any form when just doing an action. However, when you are going to use those nouns, is when your character speaks.

5.) OOC is common in roleplaying, I do it to chat as well as roleplaying at the same time. But to signal OOC you use, common symbols such as { OOC }, ( OOC ), and even /OOC: or even simply OOC: but when you do not use the symbols, always use, BIC: ( back in character) when going back into character.

6.) God-modding and auto-hitting is frowned upon in roleplaying. What is this? God-modding is taking control of your roleplaying partner's character without permission. Auto-hitting is when you allow your character to hit your partner's character without letting them to dodge, this also includes dodging every attack and killing your partner's character without permission. Do not do it.

7.) Roleplaying is all about fun, however, sometimes people can get into it. Nobody wants to roleplay with a jerk, be nice and have fun.

8.) Quality is more important than quantity. If you can give a awesome reply with two good paragraphs, that is much more wanted then posting with seven paragraphs of rubbish. However, sometimes, especially when your new or going describing something, people like description. But not to the point where we fall asleep on you.

To make a roleplay more interesting to read, you want to add description when you post. Here is an example of a simple, beginner post:

Jeff turned around. "Well, hello there," he spoke.

To make it more interesting, mod it to a post more like this:

Jeff turned his body around to the girl that caught his attention. "Well, hello there," he spoke in a low tone to the female.

Now, in order to make your posts more descriptive, you want to make your environment explode into life. For example, instead of:

The trees were big and the wind blew as he ran through the forest.

Add personification and adjectives to bring the environment around your character to life. Like so:

The gigantic trees danced as the wind exhaled against his back, propelling the male to run through the forest

w-well, back in the 'ol role playing days (god i'm so old ;n; ) we early role players called it 'God Modeling' because you were 'modeling' or 'acting' like a god, ex; not dying, killing everyone in one blow, getting everything you want without fighting for it, etc.
._.; btw what does 'modding' mean?
