Role-play RUles
▼
♞
This section contains all the rules regarding role-play and threads. Please be aware of all of these, as otherwise it may cause issues wile role playing on the site. Metagaming
▼
Do not metagame on the site. Metagaming can be defined as any out of character action made by a player's character which makes use of knowledge that the character is not meant to be aware of. Your character has to keep to his/her personality, that was written in the app. Do not randomly change their personality. You have to color all the text where your character says something or thinks something. Actions do not need to be colored.
God-modding
▼
God-modding, is the situation, where someone is soaking up all damage, thought not suffering any repercussion from it or when someone is dodging everything thrown at them with ease. These kinds of situations aren't allowed, no character on the site is this strong, to just totally ignore others they are fighting. If someone is god-modding, please inform the staff and they will deal with them or you can tell them yourself.
Posting/Minimum word count
▼
To keep up quality, posts on the site should be at least 150 words. There are exceptions to it and the rule isn't enforced with an iron fist, but if not kept to at least 150 words, the quality of them will be very low if need to be reviewed.
For posting as well, it's all done in 3rd person. So for example, writing: ''Andrew sat down and ate his salad.'' Is correct in terms of the site, where as ''Andrew sits down and eats his salad'' is incorrect, as it isn't in 3rd person.
Also, when threading with another person, don't decide their actions for them or put them into a situation where there is only one right thing to do.
Threads
▼
If a thread is marked Closed in the title, you may not enter it, unless allowed by the people already in the thread. Threads marked Open can be entered by anyone who wants and sometimes have a limit to people, though if entering an open thread that has been going on for a little bit of time, pay attention to what has happened and don't just interrupt things going on already, unless your character would exactly do that.
Also, in threads please keep to posting order. The general time limit to people posting is 2 to 3 days, this depends on bigger threads, but when that time is over, they can be skipped. Usually post order is determined by the order in which people have posted in a thread, so please keep to it, to avoid confusion. In event threads, that are regulated, breaking the post order, can lead to a minor punishment.
Liquid Time and Limits
▼
The site uses liquid time, meaning that your char can join threads wherever the threads take place. But be reasonable in this, if it's a flash back thread, you may not be able to join it for example.
Though to avoid people being in too many threads at once, they are limited to being in 6 threads at the same time, this doesn't include events or special threads or ooc threads. Events and special threads are an exception, as they may come up randomly, but they will need to be priority and an event takes place in present time, so any thread started before the event, takes place in the past in the event. And any thread started after or while the event is ongoing takes place in the future from the event.
Killing Characters
▼
You are allowed to kill characters without permission, if it's a thread that allows it, this being threads that have the Killing Allowed tag or when it's a war thread between faction. Some event threads may also have this tag.
Though outside of these threads, you may not kill a character without permission, if you have the permission, you can.
