The Rulebook.
Though we are not incredibly heavy on the rules, there are a few of them, and you need to follow them. We currently have a warning system, but if we suffer from too many offenses, we'll be switching to a zero-tolerance policy. Anywho, I present to you... the rules.
General Rules
#001. Respect is a highly important thing to keep in mind. Respect every other member's opinions, and agree to disagree.
#002. Please avoid discussing touchy topics such as race, religion, and sexual orientation.
#003. Harassment of any kind is not allowed.
#004. Please avoid using extreme language at any given moment. We will allow some cursing, but no extremities. And if you are going to curse at a person as an insult, you might as well ban yourself.
#005. In general, we aim to be a literate site, so please try to write out your words. Yes, some chatspeak is of course allowed, but keep in mind that if you ever want to become a member of the staff, complete literacy is a must.
#006. One-word posts are rather annoying, and please avoid them, except when on the games board when you are supposed to use one-word posts.
Roleplaying Rules
#001. Absolutely no powerplaying or godmodding. Definitions below.
Powerplay: To control another character. This most often occurs in fights.
Godmod: Giving characters godly qualities, like the ability to never get hurt in fights, to know everything without experiencing, etcetera.
#002. Ten-liners are great. So are two-liners. So are five-liners. I bet you can guess what we don't want to see in the roleplay? That's right, one-liners.
#003. Character flaws are great. A perfect character is just annoying. So that's something to avoid.
#004. Still on the topic of characters, nobody likes those characters with the pitiful angsty past who lost their parents to a fire and was raised by wolves.
#005. Ah-hah. Speaking of wolves, there's no wolves around Ohu. And where the wolves are, they're not exactly friendly. So, in order to stay somewhat loyal to the manga, it is requested that you don't make wolf member of the Ohu corps.
#006. Mature posts are allowed, as long as you say that it is mature in the title. |
