Since a lot has been changing in the board's rp format, I figured I should make this update.
1. Before you start an rp, you must first start a thread within the Roleplay Discussion thread. Basically explaining your rp idea.
Example of an RP Discussion: sparkydearly.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rpdiscuss&action=display&thread=5457
2. Wether or not post orders will be required in all rp's is optional.
3. If the RP you are in has a post order, be sure to follow said order.
Example: If you do not post until after Clayton, do not post in the order before him but wait until your turn.
4. If a person in the rp with a post order does NOT post within 24hrs, that person is skipped and cannot post until it is their turn again.
5. If you aren't in ____ rp and want to join, be sure to visit that RP's Discussion thread within Roleplay Discussion and ask there.
Example: If you want to Join the 'Rainy Game Day' rp, send a reply to that roleplay's Discussion thread and wait for a response.
6. If you are in an rp that doesn't have a post order, then do not make multiple replies between yourself and one other person (or multiple pages). Don't forget, other people are in the RP to!
7. All new 2nd gen character roleplays are to have GEN 2 (or anything similar) in the rp's title, so we don't get confused!
8. No strictly out of character (OOC) posts in the rps. If you need to ask someone a question regarding something going on in the rp, send them either a PM or ask them in the RP's Discussion Thread.
9. If you are not in an rp's post order and make a post in the rp anyway, your post will be deleted without question.
10. If the rp is not going how you want it, don't complain about it. Just discuss it with the other RP'ers via PM if you want something changed.
11. If there are going to be changes, do not force people to act OOC (out of character) with their characters just so you can be happy.
Example: Soandso snaps at the puppy because he is angry, the puppy has the right to snap back regardless if you like it or not if that is what the puppy would normally do.
12. Absolutely no god-modding! If you don't know what this means, it is when a person takes control of another member's character.
13. No crossover rp's. If you want to do a crossover, do it on instant messenger or a crossover rp forum. This forum is 101 Dalmatians, remember?
Example: No Lion King/Spiderman/101 Dalmatians/etc....
14. If a member misses 6 of their turns in a roleplay (that has a post order), that person will be booted from the roleplay. Also if you know you'll be missing your turn (due to vacation or etc..) LET us know before you go!
Exemptions from this rule: If the user created the rp themselves, if they're on vacation/away, computer/internet problems, etc..
15. If you are in an rp (with post order) and post when it is not your turn, your post will be deleted without question.
16. Not a rule but a note. If you are removed from an rp because of missing your post 6 times, it's only a TEMPORARY removal, not forever. I will let you know when you are allowed back into the rp.
17. No pr0nographic and sexually explicit role plays or replies of that nature within rp's. There are members younger than the age of 18 on this forum. Sparky's was not made to let your fetish loose. Please keep those rp's in private messages or instant messengers, thank you.
18. If you are in an rp that has a character limit (let's say 3 for example.) You are not allowed to use more than 3 characters. Even if you were to take out 1 of the characters and try to replace them with a new character, this would not be allowed because you used up all 3 of your "slots" per say.
If anyone can think of other rules then please send me a PM and not reply in this thread with it!
