Room Rules

Room Rules

We respect one another.
All we ask for is a little respect when you step into the room, baby. Be mindful of other people, be it in their character form or typist form. And respect the story.

Communication is key.
We like it when you talk. Talk about your problems, if you would like to have an exchange of ideas, if you would like to get in on some exciting roleplay. 

The Drama Llama.
Please leave the Drama Llama outside of the room, and all the exciting new things that we create here.

Room Leader.
The room leaders' word is final and law. Any rule may be changed, altered or revised at the leader's discretion. The forum password is Tengil.

Guidelines

OOC
Out of character, only constructive interactions are permitted. While disagreements, misunderstandings, and hurt feelings are inevitable in any group of people, we expect all parties to handle themselves with maturity and consideration for others.

• Assume the best of others, and always try to be the best person you can be.
• Be solution-oriented and positive when conflicts arise.
• Separate yourself from drama and do not be a person who fosters it.
• Accept that not all personality types mesh well and minimize negative influences.
• Offer only solicited critique, and when doing so, be both constructive and encouraging.
• Ask questions, suggest new ideas, and raise any issues you see for the forum.

IC
In character, god-modding is not permitted, and metagaming discouraged. Most important is being supportive of other players' characters and plot arcs, which means being generous with the spotlight.

• Involve yourself with others and they will be happy to return the favor!
• Only describe your character's actions and let your opponent or partner decide theirs.
• Keep out-of-character and in-character knowledge separate.
• Be ready to work around the mistakes or inconsistencies that occur.
• Be accepting of characters which might not fit your particular interpretation of the setting.
• Be receptive to collaborating with others. You certainly don't have to like every idea thrown your way, but it's more fun if you try to make counter-suggestions and brainstorm even more ideas.
• Ensure in-character interactions aren't taken personally. When an antagonistic scene occurs, players should communicate OOC to ensure that everyone is willing and having a satisfactory roleplay session.
• Make an effort to respond in a timely manner.
