General Rules

Intro to Rules:
Just a note, but the order the rules are in do not, in any way, tell you the importance of the rule. These rules are also not here to give you a hard time, but rather to understand both the theme of this place and the way to play on it. Every game has rules and if you cheat, it's no longer fun. Cheaters are losers since they will never know if their real abilities are any good. But enough with the lecture. Enjoy!


Rule 01: Fun

The whole point of a game is to have fun. If you've come here for competition, that is fine as long as it's for fun and not *just* competition. Remember other people are here too and they, like you, are here for fun! Please do not ruin this for them. This would make me sad. And a kitten dies every time people kill fun for others (Just kidding, but you get the point).


Rule 02: No cussing

Cussing happens. I know. I realize this. But please try to understand this place is for all ages. As for In-Character cussing, it is not tolerated. Sonic does not cuss and heck... even Robotnik does not use the cuss words you and I have come to know. No cussing once you start roleplay or you will be suspended from roleplay.

It should be obvious what I mean here. When you are roleplaying, you can use words like darn, crud, beans, fiddle-sticks, or even clumheep. You can also use @#$% and other such signs as a form of cursing. You may NOT spell out a cuss word using alternate means. For example |_3@rn = Learn.

I understand some don't have the same standards as I do, so you might say some cuss word and you didn't even know it was cussing. As a result of this, this rule is a 3-strike rule. If you get caught cussing on 3 occasions, you are out. Because by then, you should have been informed what is considered cussing.


Rule 03: Yiffy Descriptions
Ok... so this is not too important, but please remember that if a seven year old is posting here, the last thing he or she needs to read is some sexually explicit material. No sexual suggestions in your description beyond mentioning your gender. I think we all know what that entails.


Rule 04: Adding or Taking from the Rules
This is something unique I have decided to add that most places do not have. If you like, you can add a rule, take a rule out, or modify a rule depending on how convincing your argument is. Simply PM me and you can get started.

Character Rules

Some thoughts I had last night at work:


Rule 01: Abilities

2 languages default: Common and native language.

1 more language possible with background explanation

2 more languages if your character is a linguist.

When creating a character, you are allowed to have 2 languages from the start. Your native language and the common tongue. To know what your native tongue is, check under the race section. If you have doubts, feel free to Private Message me, the GM. Chances are, your native tongue will be the same as your nationality, not your race (Example: There are Mewies on Neplusultra and Tharia. So if your character is a Mewi who grew up on Tharia, their native tongue would be Tharia since there is no "Mewi" tongue).

A character might want or even need to speak a third language. You may learn a third language if your background calls for it, but if the GM feels you do not need it, you won't get it. However, if your character is a linguist, you can have a 3rd and even a 4th language without needing to explain it beyond the part of your character app that covers their being a linguist. For more details on this, check the "Linguist" skill in the ABILITIES thread.
