Rules
Basics
1. Really, this is so obvious that it shouldn't even be stated, but for the love of God, follow the
Gaia TOS, including the
Rules & Guidelines.
2. Romance is allowed, as is violence. Other people may be interested in your character for their own goals, but whether you welcome them or not is up to you. Be warned, though, that your character's destiny might not end up what you want it to be.
3. Though fighting is allowed, auto-hitting is not. On the flip-side of the coin, though, you can't realistically dodge every attack thrown at you. Eventually, something will get through.
4. Do not post until either myself, or Jayden confirms your profile. If you are found to be posting before either of us gives the ok, you will be banned.
5. PM your profiles to me or Jayden.
6. People are allowed 4 profiles.
7. Label your pm's the following:
for prototypes: The city shall taste my revenge
for hunters: The hunt is on
for experiments: what did I do to deserve this?
for scientist: time to taste more chemicals.

Posting
1. No blinding colors, such as
yellow or
cyan. Also, please refrain from using white. Unless you have a secret message (ex:
The cake is a lie.).
2. Post at least three days a week. If you can't meet at least this goal, you might be better off focusing on what else has you occupied.
3. If you find out that you won't be able to post for a while due to any reason (fire, flood, alien invasion, etc), please let us know as soon as possible. Without prior notice, your character will be removed from the RP at the end of 2 weeks after your last post. You are not the only person RPing here, and you shouldn't expect everyone to wait on you.
4. I expect decorated posts, that means your character's picture, a good color if you want, and a decent size text. Preferably the default size, size 9 is also acceptable.
Literacy
1. NO TXT-TLK. Seriously, guys, what do you have against vowels, anyway? They make reading things so much easier!
2. Don't know how to spell a word, or if the word you're thinking of is the right word? There are tools out there to help, such as
SpellCheck.net and
Dictionary.com
3. You don't have to write a full 5-page essay on what your character is doing in every post. Honestly, we'd rather you not (though if you do, make sure you break up the paragraphs - it makes it easier to read). We also don't want to see one-line posts if at all possible.
4. If your character has a speech impediment or speech problem, or is simply uneducated, then it's fine to show that in their speech. But please try to use proper English where prudent.
5. We are not Grammar Nazi's, I don't expect perfect grammar from any of you, but please just do your best.
Respect
1. Jaydenn Kelvari is the king of this thread. Silver Death Okami Kyu is its queen. If you respect the rules as well as us, then there won't be any trouble.
2. Keep OOC troubles from interfering with the RP itself. If there's someone that you just can't stand, let one of us know so it can be taken care of.
3. We're all here to have a good time. Check your attitude at the door. Failure to comply with the rules will result in your being banned from the thread.
4. All sexuality is welcomed, there will be no bashing of anyone's sexuality, if there is a complaint about it, Jayden or I will speak to the person in question and personally ban him or her for 1-3 days, if it's light, or permanent if it's beyond rude.
Experiments
1. You have a tracker that you can not remove, whether it's a collar or a tracker that's imbedded into your brain. If you try to remove the tracker, you will be shocked and will be unconscious for 3-4 posts.
