1. Respect Eachother : Do I need to explain more? Nobody is above or below anyone here. Everyone is equal and we hope you will treat each other so. Learn to respect each other and behave well. And by this, I mean treating everyone like your equal and not point out people’s wrongs rudely. In other words, don’t treat people like they are idiots. If you have problems, consult a staff.
2. Respect Staff : We usually know what we are doing but we are human and can forget or have flaws. However, it is advised to respect us and listen to us. Which means, no rude comments or pointless arguments. Also, remember that we have a life outside the site too. So if we are late in doing things, just try to understand us. You have anything you want to say about a staff? Go to another one or an admin.
3. Be Understanding : This is important. People are different with different outlooks and different attitudes. Try to be understanding and try not to start fights. Put yourself in the other person’s shoes and think for a bit. Calm yourselves down and just be polite to them.
4. Chatbox : Chatbox is for interaction and fun. Go crazy since no one is stopping you. But, remember to respect each other and not start fights in the cb. Spamming in the cb is not allowed either. Finally, advertisements are not to be linked in the cb at all.
5. No Godmodding : Godmodding is in essence when someone’s character practically does anything without limits or boundaries. And example is when they simply cannot be harmed by any and all means other RPers try. Yeah, nobody is a God here. You cannot just not take hits but deal damage to your enemy. So try not to Godmod. Remember, in a good RP fight, it’s always fun when you take hits and deal hits. An one-sided fight is just plain boring.
6. Metagaming : Metagaming is an "out of character" action where a player's character makes use of knowledge that the player is aware of but that the character is not meant to be aware of. Let’s not do this, people. Use of outside knowledge of the char inside RP is no fun. Wouldn’t you rather have your character experience everything and find things out by him/herself? Metagaming is a definite no go in the RPing world.
7. PG-13 : This a PG-13 site, people. This means we do not allow sexual or mature threads in our site. If you really want to RP that out, take it to PMs. Nobody has any complaints on that. Cursing and swearing can be allowed as long as it doesn’t get out of hand or too sexual.
8. No Racism : We are all human beings living in this bright bluish greenish planet called earth. We are equal and and that is why racism is not allowed here. There is no white or black or this country and that country here. We are all people who loves to RP. Nothing more, nothing less.
9. Be Active : This is very important. We expect our members to be active. Post everyday or even once a week but be active. Also, being inactive for long can result in the removal from important positions and so on.
10. No Harassment : I think this is an understood rule. Watch your words. Remember that some things you say, even if it’s meant as a joke, can hurt people. And if someone kindly tells you to stop, just stop. Carrying it on will only result in getting punished.
11. Language : We hope to see good language in here. And by good language, not only do I mean polite wordings but also complete sentences and not so bad grammar. Nobody is asking you to have perfect grammar cause pssh who has that? While RPing, please try not to use text language or the act of shortening your words with a u or r or...oh you get what I mean!
12. Loopholes : Oh yeah….human nature. We just love finding a way to abuse rules, don’t we? Well, please refrain from doing that here. If you find a loophole, bring it to the attention of staff instead of abusing it. We are a new site and we are just starting out. So there could be places uncovered by us. If a loophole is found and used then you will be warned only once and if you abuse another loophole you will be banned. When a situation like this arises, a moderator or administrator will always have the final say.
12. Joining Threads : Never join a thread without permission of those in the thread. This can lead to many issues and complications. Some threads may be jobs or they might be private threads for a person or people so make sure to ask permission before joining a thread.
Breaking Rules: Breaking rules will result with a warning first. Then, we will give a 2nd warning, then a temporary ban where you will lose your important positions and finally a permanent ban. So be good and don’t break any rules!
