1. Avoid spamming
Do not post in a role-play unless you intend to be a part of it. (Moderators are exempt from this rule)
Please do not submit a roleplay that you plan on only being between two people. Public roleplays are meant to be a group effort, keep private roleplays to a private message. Do not start roleplays until you have a minimum of three people signed up for it.
Do not constantly nag the topic poster with reminders or needless information, as it is rude and impolite.
Double posting is not allowed except by the topic starter. Instead, use your edit button
2. Plagiarism is not permitted
Do not steal or copy ideas of a role-play made by a different person. Ask for their permission first and have them grant it to you to avoid this.
3. Avoid God-modding
God-modding is the act of making a character too overpowered to the point where nobody would be able to beat them, kill them, or they just wouldn't be affected by anything. This is not enjoyable to others and is unfair.
4. Out of Character Chatting
Place any out of character talk in a set of brackets, such as: ((...)), [[...]], and {{...}}
5. Minimum info needed for a Role-Play
Role-plays need to at least contain:
Title
Plot/Backstory:
Rules:
Form:
Accepted Forms
6. Avoid Scripting
Role-plays should be written like a novel, complete without any random stops. Do not write it like a play and put asterisks for action. Instead, explain it fluently. This is not what is allowed:
Quote
Character A: Dialogue
Character B: *action* Dialogue
7. If a Role-play has no replies in 30 days, it will be locked
This is to prevent necrobumping and regular bumps constantly. If you want it unlock it, PM a moderator.
8. Try to keep up with the Role-plays you join
Don't make a form for a role-play if you believe you can't keep up with it. Role-playing is a commitment, and you should at least try to post every few days. If you can't keep up, ask your other role-players to see if they'll slow down.
9. No cursing is allowed
As a forum rule, you are not allowed to have cursing in your role-play. This includes censoring it and just having it in general.
10. You must have a copy of your roleplay saved to your computer.
The mods are not responsible if you do not have a copy of your roleplay handy. This makes the approval process much faster, rather than you posting it and then the mods having to give you another copy because you didn't write it somewhere else to be able to fix any problems with it if needed.
