This post here contains our rules. We find them to be quite reasonable, and hope you will, too. Just a list of guidelines about being in this guild and interacting with all your fellow roleplayers. Think of this as "Finishing School for the New and Uninformed." After reading this, you won't be uninformed anymore! Do the wave.
- 1. Grammar is your friend. I'm not even kidding. This guild is all about advancing and becoming better roleplayers through experience, and you can't make any progress if you refuse to acquaint yourself with good grammar. There is a grammatical Q&A section in the Suggestions and Questions subforum for any questions you may have about grammatical structure. We like questions, it shows you're learning. Oh, spelling's your friend, too. Don't forget him, he'll get all pouty.
2. Quality is important, but so is quantity. While eight paragraphs about a cup of coffee are boring, it doesn't hurt to try and paint a fuller picture of the scene around your character by putting your all into a post. That said, we are not a community of one-liners. Repeat offenders will be smacked with a dictionary and then promptly ushered out the door. Everybody here should be capable of posting at least two healthy paragraphs per post. If you're seriously struggling, ask your fellow roleplayers for help. We don't bite, really.
3. A little originality never killed anybody. We don't like cookie cutters. Really. We go to Wal*Mart and burn them in the aisles until we get thrown out by cranky security personnel. But our hatred for the little metal and plastic cut-outs carry into cookie cutter characters. A tragic past does not character development make. Bring life and reality to your characters. Have fun with them! This is a place of entertainment, so by all means entertain yourselves. Mary-Sues and Gary-Stues will be shot with .45 caliber rifles. If they survive, they will be shot again. We will laugh.
4. Use your eyes. You have them for a good reason. Please read all the rules and all the information provided before you start making a character and hashing out a history. If anything is ambiguous or confusing, please ask. PM one of the mods or post it up in the discussion forum, we'll get to it one way or another. That said, we will not be shy in reminding you if you missed a rule or important guideline. Don't take this as the mods being cranky bastards hopped up on too much coffee, but see it as room for improvement. We like that.
5. Play nice. We're not your parents, and don't expect to act as such. Characters can yell and cuss at each other until they're blue in the gills, but please don't do the same to each other. If there's a problem, bring it to the mods and we'll address it. Otherwise, try to get along and keep your conflicts to yourselves.
6. Eat mor chikin. No, I have no idea. This rule's here because the number six is an awesome number.
Rule added by Wahoozerman at the request of our benevolent dictator, Karu Hitoshi.
