Current revision as of 01:40, 1 February 2008
You will notice this list is conspicuously short. It's because by and large we trust you guys not to be BRPS fodder. If you ever ARE BRPS fodder, we will be sure to be forward with you about such fodder. If WE are ever BRPS fodder, we hope that you will come to us and say such.
There is a major rule here in modly handling that I think both Mini and I would like to make clear.
Should you complain to us we will assume your complaint valid.
This means all issues will be heard openly, and firstly, forefrontly, with acceptance. If you are having issues, don't be afraid. We want to make this game as fun and as friendly as possible, and as humans, we screw up too, and often.

Don't be an asshat.
This includes harassing players OOCly, otherwise making life hell, or being entirely intolerable.
Inactivity sweeps will be regular.
If you are playing a Class Prez or a Class Rep, or hell, ANYONE, your character is important. Fall inactive and it's unfair to a lot of people. We have an IC rule to try and protect against this, but your char will befall ICC if the OOC is inactive enough.
If you gotta go any where, just let us know. We'll even concoct your excuse for you if you don't have enough time - you don't even have to let us know personally. Let someone else let us know. But we've got to receive a message. IRL happens and is tons more important than RP, and we respect that, but if there's no contact we can't know what's going on so we can't help you.
ICA=ICC. Period.
If something happens to your char by mod control, it means we felt like you needed an ICC for that ICA. This means In Character Actions = In Character Consequences, and we're pretty big on this. Most of the time the Consequences might not even be bad consequences, but keep in mind we're paying attention.
Mods are on the same powerlevel.
This means there's no such thing as a headmod. Though if there's one mod you're more comfortable with than the other, that's fine, but we operate in tandem, so we'll both have says! Chances are if one or the other does something, the other's approved it!
However, we are also checks and balances for this reason. If one has done something you don't like, you can go to the other about it, and vice versa. Keep in mind you have to go to one of us though - nothing will change if you stay silent!
(This rule is in effect when there is more than one moderator)
Standard RPG rules go here.
Don't godmode. Don't do things major without mod approval. Don't not-consult your fellow players before you cut their char's hair in their sleep.
The 'Hey, it's okay,' Clause
You know, sometimes things bother us for whatever reason. Sometimes someone just gets on your nerves, and you got to go vent. Sometimes you just need to post the longest, most offensive rant in your journal, lambasting everyone. Sometimes you gotta have some sort of back-talkin' window open, schmakin' mcschmaky, just trying to put yourself at ease.
This is actually A-OK. Just don't let it affect who you're playing with and what you're doing, and we're okay. It's healthy to rant sometimes, but don't let it cross the IC line - if your chars are best friends and one (HEY IF YOU'VE READ THIS ON YOUR APPLICATION YOU HAVE TO TYPE: "STU'S A GOOD JANITOR" K? IN THE SUBJECT LINE K THX) suddenly stops talking to them, the mods'll have a say in it if there's no IC reaction. It's not fair to a player to suddenly find themselves isolated with no idea why.
You wouldn't want it, so try not to do it to others.
House-Keeping Rules.
- Character limit: 12
- Class Prez: If you have one, don't try to take another, or even another class rep. That's really unfair.
- Emoticons ARE allowed however excessive emoticonning is not only obnoxious to readers but will be to characters. It's not like, banned or anything, but keep that in mind.
- Dorms ARE random when rolled. Only exception is when the dorms are changing and you want to keep your current roommate. (Does not apply at the beginning of the school year)
- Mods don't always have final say. If there's something you really want, argue, but argue WITH US.
- Rating: Mature. Things that go above a PG-13 rating should be warned and lj-cut so that people who don't want to read it can avoid it.
- And finally, if we call something implausible just rewrite! Don't be angry! Don't get on our case! We're human, but this is our game, and we can only handle so much stress outside our day to day lives. We love you. :<
