Rules
RULES
LOGS | NETWORK | OOC | MEMES | NAVIGATION
BE KIND AND RESPECTFUL
All players in the game must agree to treat other players with respect, kindness, and appropriate communication. If you have a disagreement, please speak to the player first before you bring the issue to a moderator. We understand that confrontation and conflict are not comfortable, but it's a lot more comfortable than escalation. The only exceptions are cases of discrimination and antagonizing or toxic and abusive behavior. These behaviors will not be tolerated and may be reported directly to mods with evidence.
Rating & Content Warnings
All players must be over the age of 18. This is not a smut game, but mature themes may be discussed or represented. Any time mature content is present, posts should contain content warnings in either the subject line or at the top of the post in a clearly visible location. This includes graphic depictions of sex, violence, injury, death, and psychologically altered states (psychosis, hallucinations, drug-influenced states, etc.) This applies to OOC player discussions on game communities, IC played characters, and NPCs within RP threads and applies to all species. Sex is allowed in the game, but please be sure to lock content to members-only.
Sexual content with characters, who are physically and mentally under 16 years old is not permitted. And no, aging up anyone under that age limit during an event / with magic and potions to play mature content with them isn't allowed either, you'll have to wait until they've been in the game long enough to be 16 here.
Permissions
Godmodding, infomodding, blending of the IC-OOC line and failure to warn for sensitive content are not permitted.
Stay in character
A character should always be recognizable at the core, even if they have developments. Full personality flip-flops and headcanons that directly contradict known canon information are not permitted. HMD posts are not required, but we do ask that players stay in-character as they play.
Playing with yourself is... somewhat allowed.
You may play multiple characters from the same canon / universe as long as the characters aren't too close to each other. They may be part of the same group in the canon as long as they have very little canon interaction, but playing siblings or love interests is a strict no. You are, however, allowed to play or handwave threads between your characters, as long as that's not the only thing you do. (and yes, you will find this same answer from FAQ too)
ACTIVITY
Activity Check is a bi-monthly check in and you can check in at any point during an event month on the Permanent Activity Check page! There's no activity strike system. If you haven't checked in by the end of an AC month, you will be removed from the game. If you completely idle out of the game, you will have a 7 day grace period during which you can app back as normal, but after that you can't app back in for a month (So if you idled out at the end of May, you would need to wait until July, for example).
WARNINGS
Failure to adhere to these terms may result in a warning or strike on a case-by-case basis. Moderators will notify if a strike is given within a week of the decision being made. Moderators reserve the right to ban someone from the game without strikes if a pattern of unacceptable behavior is established, even if the behavior occurs outside of the game.
