Standard Guild Rules
We gotta have them for order and all that mumbo jumbo 1. Obviously follow the Gaia terms of service, We at DKPW rather not lose our guild because of your actions. 2. Enjoy yourself! Have fun! Be respectful! 3. Activity is key, please at least make the effort to post at least once a day. If you feel you're going to be in-active do make the best effort to post in the in-active thread. 4. No godmodding (automatically hit your moves, counter everything, not feeling pain at all) If you're godmodding, then your opponent cannot have fun! 5. Please be literate, in other words No 1337, NO CAPS LOCK ALL THE TIME (except if your character is yelling in a promo, and even there, bold text can do well), no need to bastardize the English language 6. Save the Drama for your momma, we do not welcome nor want it. 'If' you have a problem with someone that cannot be solved privately (and we do mean privately not OOC in matches) then we'll happily listen to your disputes with a moderator. If you're not satisfied with that perhaps DKPW isn't the best place for you.

Auto Hitting / Auto Winning
You gotta know when to hit it and quit it bra While auto-hitting/auto winning is not encouraged, and one should be respectful of their fellow colleagues and their time, we at DKPW realize that the occasional auto hit will progress the match along that otherwise may have been forgotten. Do 'please' be mindful and respectful when calling them. You are not required or encouraged to call them, use at your own discretion What is Auto-Hitting? Also known as Automatically connecting with a move If your opponent does not reply in 2 days (48 hours at least), you may have one auto hit/auto connect. Auto WinningAlso known as Automatically winning a match If your opponent doesn't reply after 5 days (120 hours), you won the match Calling an Auto-Hit/Auto-Win If you are able to get an autohit/win and want to call it, please give a notice in your post, saying you're calling it. An ((Auto-hit)) in double parenthesis, or any OOC quotation you're using is fine for that. Auto Hits/Wins do not count when: They are not with a 48 hour/120 hour grace period Auto hits/wins are not counted between the following dates: Day before, during and after Thanksgiving December 20-27th December 31st-Jan 1st July 4th If someone posts in an inactive/vacation thread and requests it, don't be 'that' guy and call an auto hit.

Inactivity- No Showing - Walking out
Those not fun things that no one totally enjoys If you are inactive for 2 cycles in a row and you have not notified any mods about your absence, it's a tad disrespectful. In such a case, you'll more than likely lose your 'spot' in the rankings. Vacation If you're supposed to be out for a while, please let us know by posting the dates of your vacations in the thread we prepared for that. During your vacation, the match will be suspended until you come back or you can have a person of your choice (provided they agree to it) can puppet your character. No Showing If you do not show up for a match and you are noted as being online, essentially 'No-Showing' your booking will significantly change. Walking Out of Matches If you purposely walk out of match despite asking for it, and it's not a planned storyline. You will be suspended indefinitely, any matches you request will be 'house' show matches and not on the main cards. You are here in DKPW to compete, makes storylines and have fun. Why ask for matches if you're not bothering to show up?

Championship Policy
The technical things that 'everyone' wants, but there are things that we 'always' see, and we want to just go 'dial it down a bit' Asking for a title shot: Please, please, please tone this down. While we 'appreciate' enthusiasm in wanting to win championships, do make sure you do something to at least... Earn said shot. Have a match first, can't exactly win a championship if you haven't had a match right? Those who do promos, .com segments will get a better shot at winning titles/getting noticed.
It's just something to think about if you wanna get far here.
Defending Champions All DKPW Champions must defend their championships within 31 days of winning their championships, or the will be stripped. If you're a champion and you lose the belt, you are not guaranteed a re-match, and in most cases you don't get one. (Unless storyline planned) This is so everyone gets a fair share at titles, and people don't 'hot potato' championships to devalue them. Exceptions to the above rule are: DKPW Battleground Championship, as it's a 24/7 title Injured champions: The fate of a title depends on the champion's condition. The champion may be forced to vacate their title if the injury becomes too severe.(You know if you feel like taking a break, or you have a storyline planned out) Titles from Other guilds/Bringing DKPWTitles from other guilds are NOT allowed here, please respect this. What happens in other guilds, stays there much like what happens in DKPW stays Leaving with DKPW ChampionshipsWhy would you do this? It's certainly not respectful or honorable of a champion to do.
In the event of this happening (and please don't do this), however in the event of someone's departure from DKPW with a championship, said championship will be immediately vacated
Please do 'not' be 'that' guy

Profiles
If you don't have a profile? How else are we supposed to know what you do?
In this position, we feel that if you don't have a profile it'll be heavily implied you might lose your match. Here's a basic jist of what your profile 'should' include, feel free to add anything else you see fit. Basic Profile Format *Character Name: Ht/Wt: Hometown: Entrance Music: Appearance: (a tektek if possible) Common Moves: Signature Moves: Finisher: Gimmick: Alignment: Title History: Additional information * If character is a Real, please provide a link to their wikipedia page, or something as close to it as possibleWe are ONLY accepting an individual to play only three characters, only three.
There isn't any 'but my tag team counts as one' . They count as two
'But I....' Only three characters
How you choose play them (real/manager/oc) is up to you but you only get three.

Factions/Tag Teams
Partnership! Kinsmen! Clansmen! Assemble! Tag Team Rules If you are in a tag team match, and one person is declared inactive, it would be a bit frustrating for the other RPers to not be able to RP because of one. So, when such cases happens, the auto-win only counts for the inactive one, and not the whole team, which means the match continues without that person. Matches Tag matches are tornado rules if a tag team is controlled by two separate accounts. Otherwise it's normal rules , this is to ensure each party gets a chance to shine! Factions Please limit your factions to no more than four people. Profiles All tag teams and Stables/Factions should have a profile! If you do not have an official profile you might not succeed as a tag team/faction.

Gimmicks
Who are you? Who? Who? Who!? Gimmicks will get you far, they can tell a story. What's your story? Though there are 'some' gimmicks that are done to death, do yourself a favor and pick something a tad more... Original. Real Life characters Real characters are... Shock surprise gasp! Allowed here! Just be sure to use 'current' gimmicks, any past gimmicks are only to be used for the 'Time Machine'

Invasion Storylines
Nope, Nope, None of that. Nope nadda
We don't want them here, it's not welcome The Booking Team / Guest Hosts
Those people that you shouldn't get on the nerves of! Kidding! Roll calls are provided you to post in if you want a match. The schedules of matches and roll calls are posted! Bookers/Crew are the only ones who can make matches. If you want a match against somebody: You can either ask a crew member Use the GM Office thread in the matches subforums Crew Members cannot/will not If a moderator is involved in a match, he cannot end his own match. Instead, another moderator will end it for him. It is to prevent someone from claiming "power abuse". A moderator won't PM you to say if your match has started. It will be announced on the thread name once a cycle starts. It is your responsibility to check if you have a match. Guest Hosts Guest Hosts can not announce themselves to be placed in a title match (Unless storyline is accepted by Mangement) - Guest Hosts can not name themselves the next guest host, nor can they name themselves a future guest host. - Guest Hosts can not strip titles from anyone, (unless told they can). - Guest Hosts can not make title matches (unless told they can) - Guest Hosts can not award titles (unless told they can)

Matches/Promos
The fun stuff! What you do! Disqualification Rules All standard rules apply in any matches! However at DKPW if you're a champion and you purposely disqualify yourself, you lose your championship! Count-Outs Count outs are the typical 10 count Multi-Competitor MatchesMulti-Competitor matches sometimes people go in-active. Here's what happens if a situation occurs: In multi-competitor matches, if someone doesn't show up five days after the initial matches post date is posted, They're automatically eliminated and the match continues on. Standard Auto Hits/Auto Win rules apply Please remember triple threats, and any other multi-man matches are under no disqualification rules. Multi-Man Ladder MatchesWhen a participant/competitor reaches for a object, that object should the competitor's actions not be interrupted for a period of no less than 48 hours belongs to said competitor. Long story short When reaching for an object (title/case), and no one interrupts you after 2 days that case/title is yours. Realistically a person shouldn't even attempt to reach for an hanging object for at least five pages worth of posts. Entrances/Lazy Entrances Please do not post entrances may lose their matches. Please post lazy entrances must fix them up before the next show is up or they may lose their match. Do put a little bit of effort into putting a entrance that isn't ((will post entrance)) or *walks to the ring* *Unless otherwise stated, but you'll be informed of this fact in the match notes at the start of every match. Promos Promos tell a story, it helps you get noticed faster, shows us your character. But please don't call out the owner of DKPW -General managers will be provided for those shows -If you wish to do a storyline with the owners/management let the respective person know. If they say no, take it as that. -If you are a new person that's new to DKPW, please refrain from calling out the main champions. It just makes you look foolish. Shoot for the mid card or lower card champions.

Problems with other members
emo emo mad mad stare stare We all have that co-worker that we just simply cannot get along with, but regrettably we will not cater to your request of not booking you against someone you don't like. You can either put your differences aside and do the match or don't show up. There will be no arguments in DKPW any problems in a match inform a crew member, rather than extend the argument. Harassment 'Any competitor involving any member of the roster or crew in an derogatory manner regardless if it's in character or not, and the person involved is not currently in a feud with above mentioned competitor, and doesn't have permission from said competitor/crew member shall be basically be going against what you signed. 'No' means 'No' if they're not up to feud with you or in a match with you currently leave it at that and find someone else.' This is by no means a 'Cop-out', but if a person says 'No, I don't want to feud with you' do not constantly 'egg them on' with annoying posts. It is a waste of time, be civil, be respectful and just let it go.
