  ROLE PLAYING
  
  
  
• We ask members that if a thread is going to become sexual that you use the "fade to black" description, example: "As they kissed they fell onto the bed"... "The next morning she woke up beside him". Just skip over the sexual parts and we should be find. Now as for violence we are a medieval fantasy role play, so battles, wars and fights are going to happen. We just ask that you keep violent descriptions clean and not overly detailed.
  
  If a staff member does see anything overly sexual or overly violent, you will be warned and the thread will be deleted. Please we cannot stress enough how important this rule is, yes it is slightly difficult to work around but please try your best, we don't want to be deleted now do we?. Thank you.
  
  
• Please do not use bright colors to highlight and show what your character's speak. It's not needed "my eyes they burn!" lol. If you want to use a color to show what your character is saying, please for the love of God pick a color that isn't blinding and one you don't need to highlight to read.
  
  
• Please space your posts, space your paragraphs, no one wants to read some huge long blurb.
  
  
• Grammar, it is so important to spell right. One misspelled word can throw someone off in reading the post, especially if they are enjoying it. So please spell check is around for a reason!
  
  
• Word count minimum of 350 words. We are intermediate rated.
  
  
• When posting IC (in-character), please remember to blockquote your posts, it's the button with the arrow pointing to the right, you may have the font be size 1 or 2, doesn't matter. But please use blockquote at least once, it just makes everything look nicer.
