Q&A
Q: Do I have to read all the RP posts before I can join?
A: No. While we would like you to read them, you're not required to.
Q: Holy shit, the RP posts is a novel, how will I ever finish reading it all?
A:
We have a summary for the RP posted below. While we LOVE for everyone to read every single posts in all the threads, we do not require players to do so. However, players are responsible for keeping themselves up to date with the latest threads they're involved in. Latest threads are associated with group 0.
Q: When will my character join in the RP?
A: As soon as a GM is ready to introduce you to the game. Keep an eye out for private messages, or come on IRC for news.
Q: When I post it shows my account name, how can I change it so that I post with my character's name?
A: When you are writing a post, click on your name at the top, then scroll down and select your character's name.

Q: Am I required to use this IRC thing?
A: No. It is quite useful when doing dice rolls, and consulting with GM/editors.
Q: Where do I do dice rolls?
A: You can do them in the IRC. If you don't want to use IRC, you can do your dice roll under "dice roller" at the game menu up top.

Q: What does 2d4 mean?
A: Its a format for rolling dice. 2D4 means rolling TWO dice, with FOUR faces. For example, a 3d6 would mean rolling 3 dice, with six faces.
Q: I will be gone for a while, what will happen to my character?
A: Normally nothing. It is highly advised that you notify us first if you are going to be gone for a while. We will temporarily role play your character for you as a NPC. This does not mean that your character are immune to death/injuries.
Q: What will happen to the players in my group that went MIA(missing in action) for a long time?
A: Those who are gone without a warning will have their character either removed from play through events, or death. In other cases, their character will become NPCs.
Q: What are these orange texts that I see in the thread?
A: They are called private lines, designed to only be read by selected characters.
Q: How do I use this private line function?
A: In the right bottom corner of the posting window, scroll over the tab "insert a private line:" to bring up the scrolling wheel, and select the characters that you wish to send private lines to.

Q: How much control do I have in the RP as my character?
A: You will have full control of any action your character as long they are within the realistic boundaries, unless an editor or GM says otherwise for combat/event purposes. Please do NOT control other people's characters in your post. This goes double for walkers, NPC's that you came across. If you wish to have someone else' character or a NPC perform certain actions in your post, you MUST consult with the players first, or GM/editors.
SURVIVORS TIPS
Knowing your surrounding is important! Take a roll to survey your surroundings whenever you enter a new area!
Lone walker are not much of a threat most of the time, stay away from hordes!
People are not honest, they will lie to you.
There's always more than one way to deal with things, you just need to think creatively! Wise words from Snicker.
Any further questions should be sent as a private message to GMs or posted in OOC (Out of character) thread. We are also available to answer your questions in the IRC.
