1. Godmoding/Powerplaying- This will not be tolerated in any way! If you GM or PP continually, you will be expelled from the roleplay, and given a warning. See below for definitions.
- Powerplaying: In which a character takes on powers, attributes and abilities far beyond what would be considered acceptable, forces his or her own actions on another player, or disrupts the roleplay with an overly powerful, "godlike" character.
- Godmoding: When you take control of another person's character without their consent. This includes determining whether your attacks hit or not, or killing the opponent. This also includes controling things you as a member, or your character, could not normally control. This includes changing the environment.
2. Language- Both OOC and IC, please keep cursing to a limit. While you are permitted to curse, if you abuse this privilege you will get a warning.
While IC, you MUST post in third-person and in past-tense! This is a strict rule, and your post will be edited if you do not immediately change it when requested to.
3. Posting- Several rules apply when posting:
- No constant one-liners. We expect at least one paragraph, and love to have more. To make it considered a paragraph, it must be at least 6 sentences.
- Read your post before posting it. It only takes a few minutes, and most of us won't die if you don't post it right away. In fact, we will greatly appreciate that you check over your roleplay for grammatical and spelling errors. If your post is too illiterate, it will be modified, or even deleted.
- If you're posting Out of Character (OOC:) when in character (IC), always make that known by either putting ((parentheses)) around it, or using OOC:
- Absolutely NO chatspeak when In Character WHATSOEVER!!! This includes shortened words, such as "yr" for "year" and "min" for "minute"
- Spam is frowned upon in this forum This includes, but is not limited to, pure ooc: posts, double-posts, pointless posts, and one-word posts.
Frequent Spam will cost a 50 post deduction, or more, regardless of how many posts you "spammed."
There is a board for spamming, where all posts do not count, you're free to spam there!- Do not post in a thread that has been dead for 3 or more weeks. This is considered spam, and your post count will be deducted!
10. Threads- It is possible to be in four seperate roleplays up at one time. Your first roleplay will be your classroom RP, the second your Dorm RP, and finally your other two may be in any area you wish.
As for the Misc., Administrative Business, and General categories, you are free to post as much as you wish.
*Note: to make sure you have read these rules, please put the word Pineapple at the bottom of your character sheet in the color Red
