Regulation 1.00

To fight against stupidity in the long run makes even the fairest and gentlest men brutal. Perhaps this means they are on the right path to their own self-defence, for the just argument against a stupid head is a clenched fist. But because, as aforesaid, they are gentle and fair of character, the suffering they inflict on others through this means of defence is less than the suffering they inflict on themselves.

Friedrich Nietzsche

REGULATION 1.00
general rules



First off, if you've ever been on a RP before and you have even a shred of common sense, reading these rules is unnecessary. The rules, for the most part, run symmetrical to any other anime/videogame based RP - unless you've never done this before, enjoy reading rules or are an idiot, feel free to skip to the last section, which is more site-specific.



There is no 'warning system'. If you break a rule, the admins will not give you a warning, wait for you to break two more rules and only then ban you. No - how soon they choose to abort your account is instead judged entirely on a case-by-case basis, depending largely on the rules broken and how much the the admins like you.

Don't be an unnecessary dick. There's a degree of dickery that is acceptable, but once you start offending people (people not to be confused with 'overly-sensitive faggots'), it's probably time to apologize and tone it down a little. Probably. This is a completely banal, rudimentary rule, but apparently some people forget it from time to time.

Don't spam. This includes pointless double-posting as well as supererogatory messages.

Type to the best of your ability. Not really a huge deal, so long as you don't step over the line. You're not going to get banned for making typos - everyone makes mistakes - but if the correct to error ratio becomes too high too consistently you'll need to step up your game. Brotip: Generally thoroughly re-reading what you've written and correcting any errors before you post will have a positive effect.

No godmodding, powerplaying, or whatever you wish to call it; it's stupid and annoying as all fuck. Being unrealistic, a less lavishly named branch of godmodding, is almost equally tiresome - if someone has a large, muscular man as a character, and he decides it'd be a good idea to make him kick your girly, androgynous male in the stomach, your character cannot catch the kick, somersault over the guy, and attempt to stab him in the back while high-fiving a bear and saying hello to cute chicks in the hallway. It's understandable if you don't want your character to be abused, but if he must avoid the kick, avoid it realistically. Use your judgement.

Your character must be original. No ports or distilled versions of other people's characters. If you're not imaginative enough to come up with your own character, you're probably in the wrong place. Hell, you've probably got the wrong hobby - try something less creative, like yoga or making avatars (lol, etc).

Do not, for the love of god, attempt to correct an admin or mod when they do something against the rules. They wrote the fucking rules, it's probably safe to assume they know them pretty well. It's unreasonable to think that rules will never ever in a million years need to be broken, so don't act as if they're somehow sacred, and try to avoid pointing fingers - who gets in trouble for what is all up to the mods. Having said that, if you feel someone has done you some great personal injustice, feel free to PM a member of the staff about it - but if it's just some bullshit about how someone called you a dick one time you'd better prepare yourself for a banning.
