All rules are strictly enforced, no the mod's and I are not trying to be mean, we just want ROTL to be fun for everyone.
1. God-Moding, this is a big NO[/b]. God-Moding leads to unfair advantages or disadvantages to RPers, and not to mention, really pisses people off. To anyone who does not know what God-Moding is: God-Moding is when you take control of another person's character without his or her consent.
2. Spamming and needless double posting. Please do not do this, either while RP or in the General Chat. I understand sometimes you have to double post to break up and overly long intro, then it is alright. But other than that, it is just plain annoying.
3. Please no chat speak of 1337 (leet) speak while RPing, in OOC it is fine, but please keep it to a minimum. Please no sTiCky KeYs. It hurts my brain, and really annoys me.
4. While RPing, if you find you need to speak OOC, please use something that shows it. Like (()) or [[]], or just simply put OOC:. So everyone knows you are speaking out of character.
5. Here in ROTL, everyone is welcome, so respect is a must. It is a simple, if you don't like someone please, keep it to yourself and don't be an ass about it.
6. ROTL allowed homosexuals and heterosexuals, so please if you are a homophobe, or have something against it, please just leave now.
7. In the title of your RP, please put a rating, so people will know what to exsepct.
E- Everyone
PG- Mild cursing, slight violence
PG13- Strong cursing, violence, gore, some sexual content
PG18/NC-17- Strong sexual theme, violence, gore, adult content, cursing, etc. Or if you are just going to have sex there.
If you think you are going to have a higher rated thread, that is fine, just put the level you think you are going to have, just so people have a head's up.
8. Please be mindful of the fact we have multiple skins, do not change the color of your font. You may change the font size, or yous bold, italics, underlines, or anything of that nature. I'm not really to strict on this, however if someone asks or says something, please change it.
9. No streching the pages with large pictures please, if the image strechs the page please put it in link form.
10. Be literate, please attempt at least a paragraph per post. If not, you really should not be here. I understand a writer's block here and there, if you constantly do them, you will be asked to improve your literacy.
11. Please dont do Mary/Gary Sues, they are rather annoying.
12. List intro's are okay, but I'd much prefer paragrpah intro.
13. I am GOD on ROTL, my admin's and mod's are DEMI-GODS, what they say is law.
14. Seasons The season is always posted on the info table. Please try and keep your RPs alined to the season. No summer weather if it is the middle of winter. This isn't written in stone, just please try and keep it that way when RPing in Modern theme's. Mostly everything in the Fantasy section doesn't have to apply to this rules.
15. If you are looking for a yaoi/yuri RP please post it in the title, like fxf or mxm, or if you simple want a straight RP post fxm. If you don't care either way, just don't post anything.
16. You may[/b] RP with the same character in as many boards as you can stay active in.
