Give/Take
Likely, this is the most important rule for engaging in RP in the room. Always keep in mind to give like you take, in all facets of interaction. Always attempt to be cognizant of this often-overlooked tenet of RP. It is meant to be enjoyable for everyone, so if one character dominates the spotlight constantly it can become tiresome for others. This is the core of RP etiquette.
Godmodding
As defined as: Influencing other player characters outside of your own against their autonomy. In any facet. Is disallowed. You may control how your character acts and reacts to any given situation.
Power Play
A separate issue from godmodding. This is simply a character who is too powerful in combat scenarios. RP, especially in a group setting, is a collaborative effort (reference Give/Take) and as such there is no tolerance for characters who are powerful enough to solve any combat scenario solo. Dependence on allies, personal shortcomings and weaknesses are -powerful- writing material that are all much more compelling than effortlessly overcoming any encounter. These are considered in a case-by-case basis, characters found to be too narratively powerful over the course of an RP will be asked to revise or use another.
No Smut/Porn Based Profiles
While we do not mind adult content featured in profiles, or even smut happening in the room, we do not welcome smut-based profile lurkers as they don't really offer anything worthwhile to an ongoing plot, and the characters tend to make things awkward and uncomfortable for the rest of us who just want to write a story.
No Underaged Characters
Self-explanatory. Underaged characters in a setting that can be rife with sex and sexual themes is unsettling, regardless of justification.
Ask First
This is an expansive setting! If people are already IC and you would like to post into that rather than starting your own scene elsewhere, it’ll help you out a lot if you have some idea of what’s going on. It’s not impolite to ask if you can join the rotation, and asking for a rundown of what’s already happening will allow you to blend into an ongoing scene more seamlessly.
IC/OOC
IC and OOC are to be completely separate. Having a problem with another character IC is fully allowed, you may hold a grudge, wish death upon their family, constantly seek to hinder them. If you wish to do any of these things OOC, to the OOC player, you can do them on your own time outside of the room. Conflicts IC are relegated to IC. IC play may contain violence, egoism, racism, or any other taboo. As adult topics to be explored in character, you are expected to handle them as an adult, as you are expected to be an adult to use this website. State that you are going fully IC, even if you started out just joking around. Sometimes it’s hard to tell whether someone is snowballing or being silly. Make your intentions clear to other readers. You are allowed to post half-effort half-IC/OOC posts as many find it a valuable way to warm up into fully IC, but you are -not- allowed to use this as a "clever" method of evading the rule of keeping the two separate.
TBD.
