Those of you who have participatedin any of my RPs before (which would be most of you) should recognize these rules. I find them very detailed, covering everything you need to know, and they always fit whatever RolePlay I do. Seriously.
So here they are:
- Follow Gaia ToS, of course. First and always.
- Secondly, I am the Goddess and the Ultimate Ruler Dictator President of this guild. You will listen to me at all times. And if I'm not on, chill. Send me a PM. But only if you have a BIG problem. As the creator of the guild, I believe that the rules shall be followed and I will NOT hesitate to enforce the rules. Other than me and Saraian, my right hand crew member, every single participant in the Roleplay is equal.
- NO swearing, death threats, harrasment (physical or mental) etc, in OOCIt's just mean.
- YOU are responsible for your actions. If you get in trouble, it's not my fault.
- Please, NO bumping, NO advertising, NO spam, crap, etc. There is a place for that, and if it's not set a side in the guild, don't MAKE a place for it. Suggest it in the proper board and I'll take it into consideration.
- This is a literate Roleplay. Please post in complete sentances, with correct punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. Repeated errors will get a warning, and if you do not heed, you don't get to Roleplay. The minimum for posts is three paragraphs. But please do not post more than ten paragraphs per post.
- Key for posting: "Dialouge" 'Thoughts' ((OOC)) See my example Below.
- One user may have up to three characters. Unless you neglect your extra character(s).
- Romance and violence are allowed to PG-16. If it gets worse (which it shouldn't!) DON'T take it to the PMs. Just leave. I'll ban you if I have to.
- No fighting in OOC. It messes up the board, and I just don't like it. If you have a problem, come to me. In a PM or a post, I shall except either.
- You CANNOT: post for other people / god mod / take over the thread / kick out other players / etc. You will be kicked out and/or reported.
- KEEP ACTIVE! If you do not post in 10 days, you will be sent a PM from the Post Fairy, and you will have another chance to post. If you: go on vacation / take a break / get grounded / are swamped with work- Tell me ahead of time or right after you get back.
- IMPORTANT: please post your profiles in your journal. I like to keep my journal as a sort of back-up. This doesn't mean we don't have a place for our profiles; there is a correct place for them.Here's mine, for an example.
- Lastly, have fun! This is the most important rule, as it is the basis for a roleplay. All GOOD roleplays are fun.
Here is an example of what a fair post should look like:
This is froma future-set RP in which I play Katie Bell.

'4:05' The winter holiday never slugged by at Hogwarts… but the last time Katie was at her old school was about 6 months ago. But now that it was December, Christmas shopping was going to speed up. Working hours would skyrocket, but so were commissions, so there weren’t many voiced complains by Katie.
As she sat and waited for 5:00 to come, Katie usually watched people pass by the window. As soon as someone would turn near or face the shop, she would quickly look away, check her bare wrist for the time, or fix her hair.
After 3 hours of on and off spectating, she finally got bored. So she went on her daily let’s-see-what-jumps-off-the-shelf rounds. Up and down the aisles, through subject after subject like Transfiguration, biographies of notable Muggles, Herbology, and drama. Finally, Katie noticed a book that seemed a bit familiar.
“Helas, Je me suis Transfigure les Pieds.” Luckily, there was an English translation next to it. “Alas, I’ve Transfigured My Feet.” Katie laughed out loud from the title, but quickly covered her mouth, as there were still some customers left in the store. She picked up the book and remembered where she had heard of it. “Quidditch Through the Ages” had quoted the book. She met Mr. Alfried, her employer, behind the counter.
“Has this book just come in? I don’t think I’ve ever seen in before,” she asked him. The old man had memory of every book he ever ordered.
He slid off his thick glasses for a moment to read the title Katie was holding. “That’s the latest shipment of them, but it was actually published in the 1400s.”
Katie controlled her laughter this time. “I guess there were morons even 500 years ago.” By the frank expression of confusion on Mr. Alfried’s face, she knew to add, “Git? Idiot? Moron. They’re all the same.” As she walked off with her new found treasure, she put in quietly,“Nowadays guys read things like ‘Twelve Fail Safe Ways to Charm Witches’ and crap like that.”
