Our jobs, as members of this RPG is to make it fun and easy for people to participate. As such, we do have some rules that need to followed. Don't worry about it, they aren't too horrible. Any questions, as per usual, should be directed towards Prof. Rudra.
1. Thou shalt have have fun. This is our golden rule. This whole thing is based off of the quirks in life, it's meant to be light and fun. Doesn't mean there won't be drama, oh there will be, just come completely prepared to make fun of yourself and everyone else. If you're in the mood for something darker, we can surely recommend other RPG's.
2.Thou shalt not control other characters. When writing, be careful not to control other characters. While this is similar to a round robin in some respects, the biggest difference is that you can't control even the most minor of actions from other people. You can however, control NPC's. We run the RPG with the general assumption that there are other people than the players around. You can, say, control the waiter at a restaurant, or people passing by, etc. etc. Just don't get out of hand, please.
3.Thou shalt not steal other characters. When you apply, we need you to apply as an original character of your own creation. We will not accept any crossovers under any circumstances. Knowingly doing this will result in a character deletion.
4. Thou shalt not disappear without notice. Really, we worry, and it can put a damper on the RP. So, if you plan on disappearing for a while, please try to get your posts to a place where it's plausible to stop. Also, inform us of how long you expect to be gone in the General Topics forum. As for normal posting. We'd like you to post, at least once a week in character, please.
5. Thou shalt obey basic grammatical laws! Everyone typos, but there's a difference between that and completely not even trying. It's a matter of respect for the RP and your fellow members. So please keep an eye on that. If someone exhibits a complete lack of trying, it is grounds for a ban. We don't want to do it, but it poisons the mood and will not be tolerated.
6. Thou shalt not freak out when people curse (magicly or otherwise). This RPG is PG-13 edging on R. Expect cursing, drinking, implied boinking, etc. etc. Keep it within reason and in character not just because you can.
7. Thou shalt speak in color! It's fun and helps people skim to see what they've missed. Just make sure the colors are visible and not completely annoying, please.
8. Thou shalt have your username be your character's. That means "Professor Kingsley" is acceptable but "KingsleyBuffyFan01" is not. If you accidentally didn't follow this rule, just PM Professor Rudra and she'll get you squared away.
9. Thou shalt not spontaneously arrive. f there is a going on and you decide to join in, do not act like your character has been there the whole time. Narrate that you entered the room and then join in. Even though you can read what is taking place before you post does not mean that your character does.
If you don't follow the rules: These rules are here for the member's benefits. We can and will enforce these if needed for the comfort of the other players. If something is posted that is completely unacceptable, you will be banned immediately. An example of those things would be racial slurs, any bashing of religion, and any bashing of sexual preferences etc. etc.
