I don't like to force rules upon people and if I thought it would just magically work out as needs be, there would be no rules. Unfortunately, there will be that odd person who goes out to ruin everyone else's fun, so, without further ado, here are the rules you need to know. Netiquette. This is the behaviour you should be using over the net. I can't force you to follow such things elsewhere, but please use this as much as possible while on iNK & DAiSiES. 1. Bullying is not allowed. If I see one person bullying another, (Out Of Character) I will enforce a punishment I think suitable for the offense. 2. If you see bullying, (OOC) then please report it to one of the Admin/Global Moderators. 3. Bad language- I'm sure that we've all sworn at one time or another, but it should be avoided as much as possible. Filters are in place for certain words, however, for roleplays, I understand that sometime you want something a little realistic. Whatever words you use, do try to make sure they're relevant to the language of that time. So, yes, mild swearing is permitted. 4. The site is supposed to be suitable for a thirteen year old. All themes involved should be that which someone of thirteen can see. No excessive gore/sexual themes, please, or I may have to give out punishments. 12. RED is an admin colour, if you use it make sure you do not impersonate an admin. If we see it we will take action against repeat offenders. 12.A. All rules have appended to them the following " - Unless it's really funny". In Character. These rules are highly important and must be followed. They explain what is and isn't allowed in roleplays. 1. Time travel. This has been discussed with the Leader Of Time And Space. You can read more about this in the applications section, but for now, let me inform you that you must apply to be a time traveller. We can't just have a few million people whizzing about and changing history. 2. Aliens. So, you are a being from the future, yes? There will be 'history' and basic guidelines on how the universe has transformed, in short, anyone in the 'future' group, may decide for themselves what being their character is. (As long as it's specified as one of the allowed types) 3. When you rolplay, please do so in third person. For example; Harry walked to the till, smiling at the shopkeeper. I walked to the till, smiling at the shopkeeper. Is first person. Please do not use this. Also, please keep everything in the past tense. ('she did blah blah', as opposed to 'she does blah blah') 4. Your character is not foolproof. A well developed character has flaws. If your character is immune to every emotion, e.t.c, then this character is poorly developed and you may be asked to develop them further. 5. Do not roleplay killing other characters or having your character die. You will need to apply for this so we don't have characters dropping like flies. 6. You don't need permission to create a new character or for two characters to have a baby. (Unless they are two different species and are incompatible to breed- as listed in the 'future' documents) 7. Be polite to those you roleplay with. If you're nasty/bossy/strict, then nobody will want to roleplay with you. 8. Remember your time. This is, perhaps, one of the most important rules of the site; if you are roleplaying as a woman from the 17th century, that same character cannot be an alien. 9. History. If you are roleplaying in the past during a major event which will effect your character, try to learn as much as you can about that period of time. 10. Vampires, werewolves, e.t.c. Such beings as these have not been proven by science to currently exist. This site is supposed to be, somewhat able, to follow the actual written history of the world. (The past, that is) Therefore, there will be no vampires or werewolves in the past (as per normal rules) however, if you wish to RP such a thing, then please consult an Admin. You will probably just be asked to add [PU] to the title of your roleplay (parallel universe) so that other users may understand what, exactly, is going on. Do not jump between universes. When this does happen, it's very rare. (and it must be Admin approved) 11. Have as many characters as you want. Don't just make one account and try to roleplay everywhere. (Which you can't, anyway) PM Ethel Bennett or any other Admin and ask to be placed in a particular century. (More in FAQ) |
