There are a few simple rules to follow.
1. Follow the Gaia TOS. This shouldn't really be necessary, but it's here just in case.
2. Posts must have a minimum of 50 words. For those with severe writer's block, do try to get as close as possible.
3. No chatspeak, and always use spellcheck. It's built into a lot of software, including most browsers. Roleplays here may range from semi-literate to literate; do respect the setting owner's choice.
4. The roleplay is in paragraph format. Do not use ** for action text; (()),however, is used for OOC text.
5. "" is used for talking. Italics are used for thoughts. Regular text is used for narrative.
6. Romance is allowed, although cybering is not. Anything mature is to be kept to PMs.
7. Fighting is permitted, but killing other characters must only be done with the other player's consent and after informing me or the Captain. Resurrections must have a reason behind them.
8. Godmodding is not permitted.
9. Character profiles should be sent through PM, both to me and to the Captain. If they are approved, they will be posted in the Characters thread.
10. RP settings should be posted in new threads, following the available format.
11. Mary Sue or Gary Stu OCs will not be received well; wangst is also unacceptable. Respect the laws of physics and basic logic.
Infractions will have warnings attached to them, and eventually suspensions or bans if they continue. Three warnings will be given.
