OOC [Out Of Character]
I
Activity, however not strictly required, is highly encouraged. Four days out of the week is suggested, to keep up with RP and current events. If there's special circumstances for absences, do post it in the Absence forum or contact a mod of the group privately so that your character is not removed from IC happenings.
II
OOC =/= IC and vice versa. Do not carry over drama between people into RP or the other way around. It's of better interest to settle any problems privately or contact one of the mods for assistance. Do not apply information that was impossibly retrieved. Hearing about something OOC and making an oblivious character partake in it once RP starts is not okay. This also goes for other characters personal information. Go about it the old fashioned way and talk to others, get involved.
III
Treat others like you want to be treated. Pretty cliche, but it works. Everyone is to be given equal respect throughout the group, no argument. There's zero tolerance if someone is outright targeted and/or harassed for reasons of RP ability, personal IRL situations, etc. Participating in such a thing, or standing by, can lead to either a severe warning or being kicked from the group + banned from the site and map. Just be nice, seriously.
IV
Regarding the chats, do feel free to talk. Be goofy, or indulge certain humors. However, if ever someone is uncomfortable with the topic or it is asked to be dropped, it is expected that it is done so immediately. This also goes for arguments. Refusing to do so can lead to a warning or a kick.
V
There's no limit on the amount of characters permitted to each person, though it is expected that each person keeps up with every single character they make. Do not bring in characters that will be used once, or brought in at certain points only. Must be evenly used, or stick to a less amount of characters.
VI
The RP sticks around a PG-13 level, including gore, sexual references and adult language. So do consider such things before joining.
VII
Don't be shy! Make posts, throw yourself in the rp, participate in events! This isn't a friend circle or a clique, so don't be afraid to do anything! We welcome you.
