RPG Rules -- Read First!!

Rules for non-parody RPGs

No bad language (Make up your own! Then again, yelling out, "Curses!" works well, too.)

No parody-ing (There's a place for parody RPGs for a reason, people!)

PM (private message) the RPG founder with a Character Description Form (see thread of the same title) and obtain permission before joining an RPG (exception: Green Dragon and other Inn-type RPGs)

OOC (Out Of Character) references must be in parentheses (or brackets []) and italics (exception: “Edit” notes must be in parentheses or the equivalent, but need not be in italics)

No smileys or effects (such as glow, shadow, marquee, etc.)

Rules for parody RPGs

All the above; but you may use effects, but no smileys. You also may parody. What else are these for?!

Also,

No "ultimate characters". They annoy everyone. Your character must have weaknesses and human qualities. (Except in parody)

Please no overly explicit content. Kissing is OK. Beyond that, don't. If you really and truly feel it incredibly necessary, PM the RPG-starter with your exact words, and they might OK it.

Ah, yes. Forgot about all that... Thanks, steel_lily. Knew there was a reason why I made you co-admin.

Wish I could ban Mary-Sues too, but that would be a tad bit all-encompassing...
