RULES
œ Don't be a douche
¨ Basically, don't harass people. If they want to plot with you, cool. If not, well, don't push, and be nice to each other, No drama please, I BEG OF YOU! Most of us are a bit older to not resort to high school tactics. If there is a problem COME TO ONE OF US! We will sort it out as well as we can.
œ Don't ignore people
¨ No one likes to feel like they're not wanted in a game. Feeling like the local leper flat out sucks. Make an effort to welcome new members, be nice, and don't leave people out, s'all we ask.
œ Play when you're able
¨ Not necessarily a rule, but still important. Don't pick up a character and then never play them. There is only one activity rule here as this is a laid back game to get away from the drama and freakouts that are other games, do post and try to as much as you can.
œ Don't God-mode / Metagame
¨ Plain and simple. Don't use another person's character in any way unles you have the mun's permission. It just cuts down on a lot of stupid crap that way. And don't bring knowledge of OOC things IC (that includes knowledge you have that your character shouldn't and if you get into a fight with someone who has a character yours is involved with, don't take it out on the character).
œ Have fun
¨ This is one of those forums that's meant to be a release from everyday annoyances and stress, RELAAAXX
œ Keep characters canon
¨ Basically, don't suddenly decide to switch up a character if you pick them up. If a character isn't homosexual in their fandom, don't suddenly have them dating the same sex in the game. If they aren't heterosexual, don't have them dating the opposite sex. If they're known for being cowards, don't have them suddenly be all 'I'm going to save the day". Keep it real, unless you decide to do something that is plausible, and you wanna develop the character more
.œ Profiles
¨ When it comes to character biographies, we simply ask that you do try not to link wikipedia, if you must and are feeling lazy, go for it, I'm (Race) guilty of that. Please give us enough information on the character to know what they are like, that way if it is an OC Newsies, Race,Jack,Spot, or the others will know how to react to them.
œ Mods are the LAW
¨ Yes, we'll discuss things with you. We don't mind compromising. But getting your own way all the time is not going to happen. Mod's word is FINAL. Don't argue, don't bitch, don't cry. Deal with it. You don't like it, don't join. And this doesn't exclude members already in game.

NOTE: rules layout was taken from KSU on InsaneJournal, and modified for this roleplay forum, I think I covered everything that I can think of because those old rules just were well outdated now that most of us are a bit more in depth to the roleplay world.
