Rules
::Rules::
One violation of the rules gets a warning, second violation you’ll get another warning, and third violation you’re out of the game.
1. No god-modding, ever. God-modding is a bad thing. Just because your character might be a god or ‘god-like’ doesn’t mean that gives you the right to write someone else’s character. Ever. Unless you have permission from the mun of the character. If so, please let a mod know so we don’t make butts of ourselves.
2. This game allows and welcomes all sorts of situations. Be they fluff, angst, emoness, eroticism, or so on. This is why we ask that you be at least seventeen years of age to play here. If you aren’t, we’re sorry.
3. While sex is a good thing, it shouldn’t be the only thing your character is doing. General interactions are wonderful, and sex when written should be tastefully done and believable. Meaning that unless your character is a whore in canon, no bedhopping please.
4. While you know everything that is going on in the RPG, your character probably won’t. (Unless they are a god, or hold telepathic powers even then limit it a little bit, eh?) Saying this, don’t use OOC knowledge for IC actions.
5. No OOC drama is to be brought IC. I cannot stress this one enough! I’ve seen one too many games fall apart because of OOC being brought IC. This is the only rule where you get one warning, and then after that you will be out.
6. Please use proper grammar in all posts. Be sure to use spell check as well! It’s your friend.
7. If a post goes over the PG-13, or FRT (Fan Rated Teen) rating they need to be locked.
8. If you know that you are going to be out of game play for a week, please let a mod know. There is a page for those who are on, or who are going on hiatus. Post a comment there and let us know how long you’ll be gone.
9. There is no character limit at this time. Just make sure that you can handle all of those characters you’d like to play. If a mod notices that you haven’t posted with a character or characters within two weeks time we’ll contact you to see if you’ve changed your mind about the character.
a. We ask that you wait at least 2 day changes in game before apping for another character. Round about 10 days. We'd like to see your activity level before we accept another character from the same mun.
b. We also ask that no one plays more than three characters from any given fandom.
10. We ask that you post with each character every two weeks. It can be something as simple as a journal post/diary entry (make sure those are clearly marked), an e-mail, or an actual RPG entry. Just some sort of activity within two weeks for every single character that you play.
11. Be kind to all of those that you play with. If you don’t like a plot they come up with, tell them, but be nice about it. Use common sense.
12. Pregnancy, marriage, abortion, miscarriage, and divorce are allowed within the game. Once again, use common sense with all of these.
a. On pregnancy: The muns of the characters involved should both be consenting and a mod should be informed as well when the decision is made.
b. No on and off again pregnancies. Make sure that your character can handle being pregnant, and play it out at least four months in the game.
c. On divorce: Both of the muns must be consenting to this action, and a mod should be informed as well when the decision is made. Your character should react accordingly.
d. On abortion: Both of the muns must be consenting to this action, and a mod should be informed.
e. On marriage: Both of the muns must be consenting to this, and a mod should be informed. We’ll announce the wedding, if both of the muns want us to on the announcements when the time change happens.
13. There will be no maiming or killing of characters while in the mansion. There can be fights, but know that if the fights escalate to where there could possibly be a fatality one of the mods characters will step in and put an end to said fight. And according to Mod Sam, your character might get thrown into the dungeon.
14. When posting a reply to an RPG entry, be sure to make it at the very least 8 sentences long. Give what you get, remember that.
15. Time changes and announcements will be handled by the mods. Every 4-5 days, a time change will be put up, along with announcements of what is happening in the mansion. We’ll also put up in the time change what characters have arrived within the time change.
16. When your character enters the mansion make an entry to post as to what they were doing the moment they arrived through the gates of Purgatory. (Read this for information on the gates.) They will be welcomed by someone, be it one of the mods main characters, or a NPC. We promise, you’ll enjoy it and it will be fun. They'll be given a key (all muns pick out the room number for their character(s) be sure to check out this list first though), and given a map that holds the general layout of the mansion.
17. We do not accept OCs (original characters). There are plenty of fandoms out there, and lots of small role characters in all of them.
18. While we do prefer threading, you may also post logs. Just ask the person you are playing with on which they prefer.
19. Please reply in a timely manner, however, that does not give anyone the right to badger the person they’re playing with. Stuff happens sometimes, but do try to reply ASAP.
20. Yes, you do like evil red llamas.
21. All RPG Posts, and replies should be 3rd person past tense. Journal entries are to be done in 1st person.
22. Make sure that if there are three or more people in the thread that you keep to a posting order! If there is a person that jumps in a little later on, keep to the posting order as per where they joined!*
23. This is an RPG, we’re here to have fun, and that is the most important thing to us. We want you to enjoy yourself while at Pandemansion! Have fun, communicate with your fellow players, and plot away! So, the most important rule of all? HAVE FUN!
* New rules are in effect as of 07/26/08.
