The Rules
>>>These rules apply within both the Salon RPG and SRHS (the Mini-RPG)
1. We like at least vague literacy. Know how to put together a sentence.
2. NO CHATSPEAK IC. This rule is incredibly important. We do not like it at all.
2.5. Spell check is also a lovely invention.
2.75. No smileys or abbreviations either. And putting OOC in the middle of IC is difficult to read, though not prohibited.
3. Please keep mature and/or graphic content to a minimum. Any thread that may include more mature content should include a suggested age minimum in the topic. While such content is not outright banned, keep in mind that there may be younger members on this website. Please, please, please keep mature content to a minimum (wow, I'm repeating myself a lot...)
4. We love it when you indicate OOC sections of an IC post. Examples as follows.
Examples:
OOC: OOC TEXT HERE
((OOC TEXT HERE))
[OOC TEXT HERE]
{OOC TEXT HERE}
{OOC} OOC TEXT HERE
OOC | OOC TEXT HERE
5. No purely OOC posts are allowed in an IC board.
6. Auto-hitting, powerplaying, and godmoding are prohibited. Definitions and examples below.
Definitions
Auto-hitting - Automatically hitting, wounding, and/or killing another character in battle
Powerplaying - Controlling another character or being psychic to that character's thoughts or actions
Godmoding - Having a character that is invincible and cannot be hit or killed or a character who can do anything in battle.
Examples
Auto-hitting:
Ew: Char1 lunged forward and plunged her sword straight into Char2's throat.
Better: Char1 lunged forward and thrust her sword towards Char2's throat, hoping to kill him.
Powerplaying:
Ew: Char1 walked outside and turned to Char2, who was walking next to her.
Better: Char1 walked outside and turned expectantly to see if Char2 had followed.
Godmoding:
Ew: Char1 lept fifty feet into the air, dodging every single blow that Char2 threw at her.
Better: Char1 lept into the air, attempting to dodge Char2's blow. However, one punch hit her...
7. We like to see effort in posts.
8. One of the goals of the RPers' Salon RPGs is to help improve your RPing. If another member offers a suggestion, do not take it to mean he/she is insulting you. Rather, consider what he/she said.
9. Keep OOC and IC separate, please. OOC issues do not come into IC, and vice versa.
The Penalties
There are no specific penalties for these rules, but if we do not like what we are seeing from you, we may discuss it with you.
