Code of Survival
"Respect the codes if you wish respect for your life"
The code is quiet simple. If you obey and respect them everyone will live in harmony.
Code 1: Literacy, is key here. I know that you are all very intelligent beings and are very capable of writing acceptable English. When posting please have the courtesy of writing at least two paragraphs just so everyone has enough information respond to properly.
Code 2: Consistency, is very very helpful. Past tense is the best option when posting, along with the third person point of view. Gives everyone more perspective.
Code 3: Respect your other players. By this I mean no killing of characters unless given permission by the other party. Also please no auto hitting, when attacking another character at least leave enough room for that character to respond appropriately. If you stay true to this and keep everyone in the know then everything will be painless.
Code 4: Your characters are not Gods. Gods are great don't get me wrong it just more fun when they have their own weaknesses to mess with. Yes these are neurologically and physically advanced beings (in comparison to us Humans) but that does not mean that they can do anything and everything. Therefore, all characters will be injured/weakened by something, but please keep things realistic.
Code 5: Characters do not have your knowledge. When interacting with other characters or in new places treat it as if it is new to you too. They do not know something about another character unless that other character reveals the something to yours.
Code 6: Thoughts and dialogue are a good thing. We all like hearing about what is going through someone's head and what they are saying. On that note:
Thoughts should look like this and "Dialogue should look like this".
Code 7: Romance, Violence, and everything else perverted. That stuff is great! Just don't over do it. There is only so much everyone can handle.
Code 8: Before posting, please wait for my approval. No need to be hasty.
Code 9: Colors, are what bring personality to posts. It's great, just don't use
Yellow or
Cyan or god forbid
White!(White) Those be nasty colors indeed.
Code 10: Characters should be your own lovely creations, something you should hold pride in for creating. Don't take characters from other people, that's just unfortunate and a lot like cradle robbing.
Code 11: When sending me your characters please send them to me by
PM
Anything I didn't cover? Feel free to send me a PM!
