• Italics are used for thought, but also emphasis

• Double parentheses are used for talking outside of the rp, OOC

• Single parentheses are used for explaining something within the rp

• Spell out your words, no short cuts or leet. If you don’t think something is spelled right, put (sp) or (sp?) next to the word

• Don’t copy someone else’s lines

• Don’t quote anyone’s post

• Use complete sentences

Cannon: Cannon is a term for 'main character.'
OC: OC means 'original character’, so it’s someone YOU made up
OOC: OOC means ‘out of character’. I suggest you use the double parentheses rather than this, though.
Color Posting: For most of the RPs in this thread there are certain colors you must post your text in for two reasons. 1. So people don't have a hard time staring at all the same colored text and 2. So it's easier for people to tell who you're playing.
Size Posting: Most advanced RPers post in a small font, normally 9 when they type a huge paragraph, just because it's easier to view then normal size font
