RPG Archives Roleplaying Decrees: Read Before Posting [Updated: 09/19/05]

Welcome to the Roleplaying Forum! This Forum is open to anyone with an imaginative mind and decent writing aptitudes. Feel free to start your own Sister Thread at any time!

Please do not go overboard with posting RPGs. They will be moderated selectively; in other words, stories are to be thought out. Moderators of this forum reserve the right to close threads at any given time, without prior warning.

Additional decrees will be added as the need arises. As a member, it is your responsibility to check this thread regularly for updates.

As of today, Game Masters hereby have a creation limit of two RPGs in this forum. Roleplaying Games created before this date of January 09th, 2005 are unaffected by this rule.

From today on, this previously unmentioned but implied rule of common sense has now become an addition to the already present decrees: Roleplaying Games blatantly copying any kind of copyrighted/published story or concept without credit being given will be deleted.

I daresay the owner will find a pleasant surprise on their next Boards.jp visit. I need not state what will happen as it is obvious.

Roleplaying Games inactive for the period of 1 month will now be considered as expired. In that state, they will be sent to RPG Archives. This is in accordance with Subforum Roleplaying Rules, and aims for equality and a clean forum.

Though this is painfully obvious to most of you, all RPGs must have fully developped story lines in order to be played and "make it" in the RPG forum. If you do not take the time to develop a general direction for the RPG, it will flounder uselessly. Do everyone a favour and make up a story line or don't post an RPG thread.

Cheers,

Long an unspoken rule: one character per person in a game.

(Edit: This is backed up by the fact that it's the standard everywhere, from GaiaOnline to A3 to Spacebattles).
