Hello
Hi there, my name's Uchiha Roxas and you might remember me as the Captain of some other mildly successful guilds such as: Naruto: Way of The Shinobi (WoTS) or my newer venture All Along the Watchtower: A DC Comics RP (AATW). I'm just here to welcome you to this new guild I've put together and I do hope that we can RP some time in the future; I know that some of you might be wary though so just don't panic. Take it easy. And I'm pretty sure that we can make it through this together!
Well, I've been Cap'n Roxas and I hope us Zoid lovers can make a good go of this!

General Rules
1 ~ Follow Gaia ToS
It's the most basic and most heard rule on Gaia Guilds. So, let's get out the way straight away then; please abide by the Gaia ToS.
2 ~ No God-Modding
God-Modding's meaning has changed considerably over the six years I've been RPing. At one time, it meant using divine like means and powers to influence roleplay both in and out of character but to me personally, it's always meant the neglect of reason and the bending of the natural order in order to manipulate the roleplay scenario you are currently in. For example, Auto-dodging without even being aware or adequate reaction time and ignoring the actions of others towards you because you as a roleplayer refuse to say they have happened. These are both forms of God-Modding.
Repeat offenders will see punitive measures put in place.
3 ~ No Metaplaying
Metaplaying is the use of Out of Character or OOC knowledge and using it to influence in character roleplay. An example of this can be seen when two friends whom are rping against one and other discuss tactics and one of the said friends uses the the fact he knows what his other friend is up to despite the fact his character would have no means of knowing how or when the opponent was going to attack. This is Metaplaying.
Repeat offenders will see punitive measures put in place.
4 ~ Restrictions on Character Changes
Character changes happen almost all the time; whether they are small or large. Yet, there are stricter measures on large character changes. Changes such as new skills and new weapons must be approved by a moderator and once a character is approved, any changes made to that character must be approved once again.
Anyone caught not following the correct procedure will have their character removed from Roleplay until the issue is resolved and a moderator has approved the profile. These rules also apply to Zoids and their load outs.
5 ~ Character Death
Character Death is a natural thing in the Roleplay. It's war. Total war. Sorta. So there is no need to ask to kill another character. Death will happen and once dead your character is dead.
Refusing death and arguing against death is a form of Godmodding and carries the same punitive measures.
6 ~ No Post Editing/ Deleting
Post Editing, is not allowed to happen unless Moderator approved and non-combat related. It's a form of God Modding and carries the same punitive measures.
Deleting a Post counts as an edit because it changes what has happened within an RP by removing certain elements. Not only that but it is also poor RP etiquette to Delete Posts. So, this amendment clarifies that Deleting a Post is the same as Editing a Post in terms of severity and punishment.
7 ~ No Posts of Sexual Nature
I don't care what you're into. But not in the guild. You can RP romance, flirtation and relationships can be roleplayed out but if it escalates into a sexual situation and you really, really want to proceed into the scenario; please, dear God, take it to PMS. Neither, I nor the guild need to be exposed to that and it can get the guild into serious trouble.
Anyone caught partaking in such behaviour will automatically be banned.
8 ~ Work Stealing
Me and the Moderators put a lot of work into this guild and the roleplayers in here are also hard working and brilliant. However, there are the times where the work we slave over is stolen and used by others; if this is made apparent to the moderators and with adequate proof, we as a guild will take action.
Anyone caught doing this will be banned from the guild.
9 ~ General Respect, Politeness and Cooperation
I hope that we all can get along really well and help each other out. The only thing that I ask of you is a basic level of respect to both the Moderator team and the fellow members. We also ask you to be polite and cooperate with everyone in the guild.
10 ~ Follow Guild Procedures
There are a few procedures in this guild that must be adhered to. If you are having trouble with a certain procedure, don't be afraid to ask for help. If you are purposefully ignoring procedure, we will punish you for it.
