Really, everything in here falls under one simple concept:
The Golden Rule
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Basically, if you wouldn't like someone doing it to you, don't do it to other people.
Be Respectful:
This is to everyone. Don't harass people. No slurring, attacking, gossiping or name calling.
No Profanity:
Keep in mind that there is no age limit to the players on this board nor to the people who may visit our chatbox, and that there are people, no matter what age they are, who find profanity uncomfortable or downright off-putting. Please keep any and all explicit content to the Mature forum.
No God Modding:
Always leave a way for other peoples characters to react and to do things of their own accord.
Plagiarism:
Is extremely frowned upon. Plagiarism includes the unauthorized use of artwork, writing, characters or icons without the permission of their creator, or without acknowledging the source should you have permission to use them. If you are discovered to be plagiarising, you will receive a written warning from a member of the staff. A second infraction of this rule will result in a 1-2 week suspension depending on the nature of the infraction. Continued breaking of this rule will result in a permanent ban.
English: Aka: Write right while role-playing.
The language of choice for this board is English. Keep chatspeak and other such net lingo out of your roleplaying posts and to a minimum in your OOC posts. Keep it to normal English grammar! Keep OOC notes in the IC boards to a minimum. We have OOC boards for that. Also, try to keep from misspelling. (Everyone is human, it happens sometimes, but don’t let it get out of hand. This is what spell-checkers were invented for.)
Being Active:
If you do not post for two months, without notice, your characters will be considered NPCs. PM the administration to get them back.
If you do not post for four months, without notice or contact with the Staff, your characters will become permanent NPCs. You can not get them back after this point.
Dragon lengths:
We at this time measure our dragons in feet. If there is any confusion over this, please contact the Admins.
