Out of Character Rules
Rules to be obeyed when in the non-roleplaying threads.
Rules to be obeyed when in the non-roleplaying threads.
So there's a few rules that need to be understood before you go frolicking through the boards, doing whatever you like. This is the place where you learn said rules. The other half of the rules will announced in the rules for roleplay. But for now, the rules at hand:
1) Language. Swearing is fine since this site IS known for mature content, after all. Just don't drop the F-Bomb on all our heads - that's just on a whole other level and is plain annoying. So don't do it.
2) No hentai-speak. Meaning... detailed stories of your sex life, sexual fantasies or recaps on your favorite porn videos are not allowed. You want to talk about it? Then keep it to Private Messages.. if you're so lucky as to have a buddy that happens to be into that stuff and is willing to talk.
3) Spamming. If you're in a thread where everyone is talking about World War II and you start ranting about how your cat died by choking on a gummy-bear... then yeah. That's just bloody, off-topic spam. Prepare to receive a PM from one of the staff if you keep spamming.
4) Double-posting (posting yet again when you were already the last one to post in a thread). It pretty much goes hand-in-hand with spam. So avoid it - it's an eyesore and is pretty obnoxious.
5) Unless you're in a debate thread, getting angry and picking fights with people is a no-go. Keep throwing a hissy-fit and you'll be contacted by staff. So let's keep the peace, mmkay? <3
6) No bullying/hate for whatever reason. If there is any racism, gender-discrimination, Anti-LGBT activity or ANYTHING that is pro-hate, you're just GONE. There will be NONE of that so long as I'm the Lead of Xeraldia.
7) Each post needs at least six (6) words. There's nothing more that I hate than one word responses. So at LEAST six words, please.
8) Concerning posts, again, I expect literacy. I want to see capitalization where it's needed and punctuation where it is appropriate. No chat-speak. You have a lovely keyboard. There is no need to shorten every word that you type as though you are texting - it's not like your fingers are going to start bleeding if you type fully worded statements.
9) Have an open, calm mind.
10) Have fun chatting with others. :3
And that is all. Please be sure to check out the rules on roleplaying~!
