RULES
1. Don't Be A Dick. Otherwise more gently put as 'be nice to each other'. We're all here playing fictional characters, and while inevitably people will clash, it's best to try sorthing things out respectfully with each other. Respect people's boundaries and worries-and above all, there will be NO harassment or bullying tolerated. Any evidence of such will be struck with a temporary block from the com, because that is an impressive breach of trust. (Do note that heavy digging will be done before judging such evidence though-there will be no actions made on anonymous tips alone, for example.)
2. IC =/= OOC. Negative CR with other characters does not mean the players dislike you. So try to keep that in mind; if you're feeling under the knife because of a thread, try to step back and get some air for a bit so that you can keep the IC/OOC barrier in place.
3. Don't godmode. Hopefully goes without saying, but if you're in a fight, or if you're doing something with another player, try to leave things open-ended so that the one you're with can decide what's going on too. It's no fun if you get punched in the face without the chance to decide if you get punched in the face.
4. COMMUNICATION. If you have a problem with someone, and things aren't working out trying to sort things with them, bring it to the mod; we'll try to sort things out for you!
5. Use Warnings! This is Pokemon, so I'm hoping you won't be doing too much 18+ related...but if the need is there, or if sensitive topics might come up in a thread, place a warning on your entry!
6. READ and ASK! Technically you don't have to read everything, but try to keep updated with the OOC com, and reference the information pages as you need. If something is missing, or you're confused about something, let the mods know too! Information is power!
7. Try to be active. This is a musebox-so that means there is no Activity Check, or comment count necessary to stay in the game. But if you bring a character in and don't say boo for more than a month, the mods reserve the right to ask what's going on-especially if someone else was after that character! If you need to send your character off, leave a comment that says 'DROP' on the apps page; a hiatus can simply be noted through the OOC com, what with the unofficial nature of things here.
8. FUN! Try to have it! That's what we're here for after all!
