We've moved to a New Thread - Go there. <3
Hello and welcome to the PCT. Anyone can post here! Reading this entire post will make it much easier for you to learn how to enjoy your PCT experience.
This a joint role playing / discussions thread, but we speak in first person to make it easier on everyone. For cosplays/OCs/FCs, out of character speech can be designated with double parentheses, tiny text, brackets, etc. For everyone, actions can be designated with asterisks, hyphens, etc. Please scroll down to see definitions to help you determine what cosplays/OCs/regulars are!
Important: If you notice a cosplay has made a mistake by posting on the wrong account, please do not point it out in the thread. Doing so is extremely rude and unnecessary. Though we may be perfectionists, we are not perfect. Also, do not openly discuss who the cosplay's main account is. That sort of talk must be reserved for PMs. If it is the cosplayer's choice not to reveal their main account, that decision must be respected.
All the usual rules of roleplaying apply, even for regulars and OCs/FCs. Search the web for examples of good and bad RPing.. Such as: You cannot fatally or seriously injure someone, and you certainly cannot control another person's character, which is Godmodding. If you need help, you can ask anyone for clarification. Just because you're a regular doesn't mean you can provide magical, cure-all help or give yourself perfect fighting skills. Don't do it. When in doubt, follow the Daisy Code! Click the banner below.
We like to keep this thread not completely "serious", but for everyone to have fun we ask that you follow good RPing practice, and don't chew someone out in the thread. If you have to give someone a nudge, do it politely in the thread or shoot them a PM.. Always feel free to voice your opinion, but if you feel the need to attack someone for their behavior or their opinion, do it politely through Private Messages... or not at all. And if someone attacks you, stand up for yourself. You can also PM me for mediation. This doesn't apply to cosplays, since they have to act in character and they might not be the friendliest sort. Just using your common sense will do wonders.
A word about the PDA (Public Display of Affection) threshold for this thread: We understand that for certain cosplays it is in-character to be romantic or sexual, or extremely violent. Gaia requires everything to be PG-13 or below, and we also request that you keep everything within tasteful limits and take things "off screen" to leave it to the imagination.
And now for a terminology lesson....
Definitions to help you categorize yourself:
- Cosplay: Playing a character from a book, movie, play, tv show, cartoon, video game, etc. that you did not create. Cosplay stands for costume + roleplay, meaning you must dress your avatar as the character (with exceptions, like no-pants-day or special outfits) and you must act in character. There are specific examples of good and bad RPing in the guild, but you can use your own common sense and any RPing guide on the internet to help you. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
- Fan Character: Playing a character that you created to exist in the universe of an existing book, movie, play, tv show, etc. You MUST have created this character separate from, and not solely for the purpose of this thread. They MUST have an established story and were not created "just because" you needed someone to play. You must abide by their own character laws. They are not just a way to give yourself powers.
- Original Character: Playing a character that you created from completely original material. Like fan characters, they must not originate from this thread, they must have their own set of rules so you can act in character, as well as their own story. Source material need not be completely finished, but you must have established how the character acts, what they can do, etc. so that you can be IC. Again, this should never be used as a way to just give yourself powers or abilities, it should not be yourself at all.
**New FCs and OCs will be required to fill out a form (and PM it to me) detailing their traits/personality/story for our edification. The form is here. If you fail the little test, you might be asked to develop the character more before RPing here**
- Regular: This is you, just your main account and/or mules. No powers, no special abilities (within reason, this is a fantasy place >> ), just as if you were accessing any normal forum. You can play around and RP with the characters here but please don't expect to be able to piss everyone off with no repercussions. Treat people nicely and be yourself. Regulars need to respect one another, even if you don't like someone's ideas or values, you should treat them as you would want to be treated.

Erik will try to curtail his desire for public floggings.
If you've posted often enough for me to recognize you, you will be considered a "regular". For regulars, more chances will be given before I ban you from the thread. Violations that lead to the banhammer are things like being chronically annoying, a bad RPer, posting nonsense (above and beyond our tolerable nonsense threshold), or committing some other atrocious act.
For people who are new or just passing through and won't read this anyway, you are officially NOT ALLOWED to post: advertisements, arena entries, quests, bumps, gibberish, RP requests, picture requests, porn, page-stretching images or text, or meaningless posts. They do not contribute to anyone's enjoyment of the thread and they are essentially the same as bumping. I delete these posts and add the person to my ignore list, making them unable to post here anymore. I do not give warnings for this.
PLEASE do not quote spam or other nonsense, as it contributes to the problem and creates more posts for me to delete. Do not be rude to spammers/bumpers/etc unless you are telling a persistent person to stop. It just.. makes you look rude.
This thread is open to anyone, we welcome you and thank you for visiting us.
