If you have any suggestions for the rules let a mod or owner know.
Please dm a mod or an owner for appeals.
Moderating isn't a job it is a hobby we may not always be around so we appreciate the patience if we don't respond right away.
Rights
1) You have the right to play whatever you want. Any Scene/Character/etc
2) Any kink means any kink. Scat, Vore, Gore, Bestiality, and all other kinks are more than permissible; enjoying them is your right.
*So long as it doesn't conflict with the rules.
3) You have the right to choose who you RP with. No one gets to make that choice for you.
4) You have the right to block anyone you want. Troll, Moderator, Spammer, Owner, Anyone
Note: It is not suggested you block a moderator or owner.
5) You have the right to be free of ridicule or persecution for your sexual preferences.
Reporting Problem Persons
1. Moderators are not required, or expected, to watch the room continuously (Though they are sternly encouraged to do so when they can.), only to respond in a timely and appropriate manner to complaints from group members.
2. For any problem that can not be solved by blocking the person that is upsetting you, screencap any evidence and contact a group moderator via PM.
Tip: Screencaps can be uploaded to Tinypic.com or Imgur.com for easier sharing.
3. If you can not reach a group moderator, or a group moderator is unable to resolve your issue, you can send an offline PM to a group owner for resolution when they are next available.
Tip: To give your issue the best chance of being addressed, be sure to include the screencap and send a copy to all group owners and moderators.
4. If a group owner is your problem, please find a level-headed way to talk to them. Trying to spite, argue, or make matters worse in general is never a good thing.
Trending Issues
(Reviewed 2/13/2025)
The following are issues that have become a greater concern due to the frequency with which they occur in the room.
Please be aware of them and know that the moderators may be quick and heavy-handed in responding to such incidents.
These rules are still up for revision.
Instigating:
Joining the room or ongoing conversations for the sole purpose of stirring the pot. Instigating drama further, baiting drama, or anything of the sort is no longer tolerable.
Donate to RPH Pings:
Spamming/trolling/purposeful misuse of this ping will get you banned. Knock it off.
and before the "just remove it" wah wah, it doesn't matter. You're being a dick by pinging the people who still have it. Stop.
Bans and Appeals
(Updated 12/20/15)
Logs are needed as evidence for a ban. The logs must clearly show the offense.
Bans don't have to be permanent and can be appealed by an owner.
Only an Owner can lift a ban they have not personally put in place.
And to open up on the subject more, if you (Moderator) feel that you banned someone unfairly or for some reason that is your fault, you are able to unban that person. But you cannot unban people who you have not banned yourself unless you're given permission from the person who banned that person or an owner.
Do not unban someone you have not personally banned without permission.
CYA for Moderators
(Important for new mods)
1. All mods should be neutral in their decisions. Do not even think about being a mod if you're going to find yourself in a position to engage in favoritism. You will be stripped of your hammer if you're holding your friends over all in your decisions. You should treat everyone equally and punish them equally.
2. New Moderators are subject to a 30-day period to see how they handle their hammers. If they are found to be abusing or ignoring issues then they will have it taken away.
3. Unless the offense is incredibly bad, at least give a kick/warning before a ban.
4. Do not make a decision without logs. Logs are evidence and are incredibly helpful not only to staff but to the room as a whole.
Tip: It never hurts to send your screencaps or notes to other moderators/owners. You might not be online when trouble arises again.
5. Before committing to an action, it's good to get a pulse from the room. Ask some others if the offending party is causing a problem. It could be the case that you've stepped in on an inside joke or another case where the involved parties are simply strange folk having fun in their own strange way. If no one has a problem with it, but you can probably let it slide.
6. When kicking, fill out the reason text. Don't forget, they may have blocked you or might not be paying attention.
7. Send a copy of the screencap to all group owners and group moderators. Remember, they may appeal the ban later and you might not be online.
8. If you're ignoring issues. Your hammer will be taken up. Temporarily or Forever.
9. RPH tools is necessary and required by all mods.
Communication is important. This goes for everyone. Screenshots are a necessity.
(This needs to be enforced more.)
