xx If there's anything that is confusing you, this will be the place to go to for help before you contact a Crew Member. You don't have to PM a Crew Member either, feel free to post your questions here. If nobody else answers them then I will if I see there are any. Questions that arise from Members may be added if they seem to be confusing multiple people, or are just really good questions in general. Being so, this page will likely grow over time. I do apologize in advance for potential walls of text.
• If you came here from the link on the front page. You will get a warning to edit a post caught with a Godmod only twice. From then you will start receiving compounded ban-times for each offense. There are a few different types of Godmodding so I will go through a list (internal shudder) of these infractions.
Godmod ) Consists of essentially making your character god-like. There are some characters that will seem this way. Particularly villains made by Crew, but we also will try not to kill your characters. Other forms of godmodding that are included are;
Power Play) Essentially your character is invincible for no good reason all of a sudden and incredibly powerful. This is understandable if/when there are Jinchuriki due to sudden boosts from their Tailed Beast.
Player Knowledge ) It's very annoying, and un-fun, when your character knows something that you, the player, read on a page somewhere. Your character should only know things that they witness themselves, or heard from somebody in-character. This is a tricky one to catch, but I will scour these forums for proof if somebody's reported to have been doing this, as I personally cannot stand it.
Auto-Hit ) We've all done it at least once, and there are exceptions. However, being able to assume a hit takes a lot of planning and detail in a post to pull off, so best to avoid it altogether. I could give examples of an allowed auto-hit, but I don't want any copycats out there.
Forever-Dodge ) Almost as annoying as Player Knowledge. It isn't feasible that you can dodge everything forever, especially if traps are set up. There are characters that are going to be slippery as hell, yes, but never getting tired and moving nonstop is just ridiculous.
Infinite Chakra ) I've seen this happen, but it is terribly irritating. Your chakra can, and most likely will, run out if you spam jutsu. This is a unique Godmod in the fact that there won't be a ban for it. You will be given a warning and your character will pass out if caught. If it happens again your character will die of chakra exhaustion.
• Compounded Ban-Times
xx I don't know if anybody uses this style of banning so I felt it should be explained. It will work like this; once you've reached a compound ban you receive 2^x days banned, where x is the number of compounded bans you've received. This gives everybody a chance, but repeat offenders might as well be permanently banned eventually.
Example; Mr. Eaman has reached his third ( 3rd ) compound ban, so he will receive 2^3 ( 8 ) days banned. Missus Everything has reached her seventh ( 7th ) compound ban, so she will receive 2^7 ( 128 ) days banned.
