I hate writing rules, so there won't be many here, but please read them. I might update them, I'll let you know if I do. It's the job of the Role Play Mods to enforce these rules on the forum.
1- Unless a role play thread is marked as a closed role play, anyone can join - you can't send anyone away.
2- No God modding
3- If you get into a fight with another character YOU ARE GOING TO GET HURT
4- You can create as many OCs as you like. One OC per topic in the OC forum, when they've been approved the topic will be moved to the Approved Characters forum and you'll be able to start RPing with them
5- If you wish to RP as a certain canon character, you must claim that character, else you can't have them.
6- Once you've created an OC you must wait for a member of staff to approve them before you can RP with them (This rule doesn't apply to off-topic role-playing).
7- All RP posts must be at least a couple of lines long.
8- OC X Canon pairings allowed, so long as the members RPing both charries agree.
I'll add more rules when I think of more.
