Sorry I didn't put this up earlier. I just made a new subforum (love me, guys =D) so I'm organizing stuff!

Anyhow. RPing rules. I know we only have one RP up so far, but when we add more (feel free to add your own) this will come in useful.

These rules apply to EVERY RP, no exceptions, and if you break these rules you will first get a warning then I will have to either ban you or possibly report you, depending on the offence.

1. Gaia's ToS. Doesn't need saying, but I'll say it anyway.

2. LITERATE TALKING! PLEASE! (capslock abuse, sorry). We understand typos, but please try to keep the text-talk to texting.

3. No godmodding. That is, no making your character insanely powerful and unable to kill and have loads of special powers and twelve zanpaku-tous and the list goes on and on and you get my meaning.

Quote:
Ben landed a fatal blow on Bob, swiping his zanpaku-tou right across his neck.
Bob jumped up, laughing, his head attaching itself back onto his neck. He pulled out a sword that he had kept hidden until now and threw it at Ben. Then he shot lightning and fire at him and beat his bloody remains into the dirt.


4. Mary-Sues. Here, we kill Mary-Sues. If you don't know what a Mary-Sue is, she (or he -- Marty-Stu's) is the character who all the men fall in love with at first site, whose parents died when she was a baby and has managed to pull through, is always nice to everyone and everyone loves and pretty and has five billion different powers and abilities and things that make her 'special' like her eyes change with her mood or some shi rubbish like that. (If your character has one or two of those, don't worry, but you get the idea, ne?) If you introduce a Mary-Sue or Marty-Stu, Fabian WILL catch them and use them as his test subject. You have been warned.
Quote:
"Oh, hey, Bob." Mary-Sue said, batting her eyelashes flirtily.
"Uh-- h-hi, Mary-Sue! IjustwantedtosayIloveyoueventhoughwe'veonlyjustmetFORTHEFIRSTTIME!" Bob yelled.


5. No writing other characters without permission.
Quote:
Bob put his hand on Ben's shoulder, making the other spin aroudn and look at him accusingly. "You scared me!" Ben said, pouting.


6. No writing other characters that you haven't already claimed.

7. PM me when you join an RP that I've set up. Other owners might have different rules but this is mine. 'kay?

8. Keep all talking unrelated to the RP out of the RP itself-- and when you do talk about the RP while in the particular thread make sure that we can tell it's OOC -- as in, ((OOC)), [[OOC]], //OOC//.

9. Even if someone writes a post that has somethign happening that you don't want to happen, such as their character attacks yours, you can't just disregard their post-- you have to go with what's written.

10. Keep cussing, swearing, 'adult themes', etc. to a minimum-- or outside of this guild.

11. Probably the most important rule here! Be respectful of others-- meaning, don't say that their writing is crap, don't constantly character-bash one specific character unless they're a certified butt-monkey and allow it/don't care, etc.-- you get the gist of it.

That's all for rules, I think-- if you have any that you want to put forward, by all means post.
By the way, could you not attach your signature while RPing? It makes it flow better...

Anyhow, see ya all around~!
