Role Playing Rules
These are the rules for Role Playing Pokemon. Please read them carefully if you wish to RP without any trouble.
These rules apply to all members!
Rule #1: NO GODMODING!!!!!
Godmoding of characters will result in an automatic 3 day ban. I can not stress this rule enough.
Rule #2: 100 minimum for a post.
I know role playing or posting up a reply can be hard at times, but the min. amount of words must be at least 100. Give it a try at least, it'll prepare you later on for better future posts ^^
Rule #3: Language
Like I said in the forum rules, we are allowed to curse in the role plays. But there is an exception to this.
You are allowed to have your character(s) interact with these words if they are hated enemies, rivals in battle, ect. But this is only for in character role plays, not out of character!
Rule #4: Third person rule.
Role playing is always done in the third person. That means there are no I's, me's, we's, or us, unless it is being spoken through the character(s).
Rule #5: No porn.
Like I said in the Forum rules, do not post porn here.
Mature role play and other mature things will be accpeted and placed into a password protected mature area.
Any porn will be taken down and the user will be banned for doing so. Please follow this rule.
Rule #6: Characters.
You can RP humans/trainers of any league or what not with pokemon.
You can also RP wild pokemon as well, however, I will not allow anyone to own or RP legendary pokemon unless I or another Admin gives you the O.K.
Please PM us to ask.
Rule #7: Fights/attacks
Fighting is what pokemon do, however, here they can also die if given the chance to. No one is all powerful and everything dies eventually.
Rule #8: Knowledge!
Please know that you need to know what you are doing when you RP.
We'll try to post up as much information to help others.
Rule #9: No flooding and posts
Do not flood RP boards with one lined posts with someone else. Any flooding will be deleted.
If you are RPing with someone or with any others and it is their post when you are finished and they are not around, please wait. If you skip ahead it will not be accepted and will cause problems. Please wait your turn so that others can post. Unless they give you the O.K. to go on, then you can post ahead, otherwise if not given then no.
Old boards that are no longer in use will be moved to another board where they can still be played but are no longer in use. These will not apply to anything in major plots.
Rule # 10: Obey the rules and respect one another.
This is stated simple enough.
I am deleting/disabling rule 11 for a few reasons.
My first reason is because many people, like myself, enjoy to RP and make many characters, but having a limit can kinda kill the mood for some who enjoy making characters and RPing them a lot.
Secondly, having a limit and not wanting to give up a character can be very hard for a person, so by deleting this rule, you can keep all your characters and play them all without having to kill off or give them away if you'd like
And third, to make it fair for everyone, but the other rules still apply, okay? ^^ So have fun and make as many characters as you like If you don't wish to keep these characters anymore and don't wish to kill them, PM me and I shall move them for adoption ^^
Rule #12: Relations.
No one is allowed to date or be with cannon characters from the games or shows.
They can be related to them only if an Admin gives the O.K, otherwise they must be original.
Rule #13: Ratings.
RPs outside of the Mature Board must be PG-13 or under. That means you can have a little going on but nothing highly sexual or intense like that.
Anything sexual, highly graphic in gore/violence, ect are to be RPed in the Mature Role Play board. Thank you
Rule #14: No over-using!
Over-using? What's that?? We mean that no common similarities/traits between you and other pokemon/trainer's on this site. We mean that scars, being blind, and so forth. Yes, your pokemon may have them, but somethings are beginning to be over-used. There are more to than those things, such as bruises, broken horns, missing arms/legs/tails/etc. and such. Also, Shiny's are NOT common, so please, unless needed, do not make a shiny pokemon without actual reason. Make your pokemon and trainer's original, like give one huge hats and glasses to wear! Try to come up with ideas no one has used just yet. You will not get in trouble if this happens, but make sure you provide a good reason why this pokemon has a certain trait that can be seen elsewhere in your history.
Rule #15: Have fun ^^
As I said before, have fun and enjoy
If you have read and understood these rules, please post your name.
