Kai-mun's Roleplay-Rules

This is no interactive blog. The sole purpose of this blog is to have one rules-page for all of Kai-mun's roleplay-blogs. That way I can easily change and adjust the rules for all of my blogs at once. You are free to link your own blogs to these rules.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplayrules §10 - Availability-Status and Selectivity

There’s always some information about the Availability and Selectivity of a muse in the blog-description. I will list here the ones, that I’m using and what they mean:

Private: Means this blog only roleplays with a specific group of people. These people are listed in the blog’s list of affiliates. If you want to become an affiliate, you ought to contact me ooc via ask or IM first.

 Indie: Means this blog acts indipendant from any established roleplay-groups or cliques.

Open: Means almost the same as ‘Indie’, only that this blog is open to play wth any blog, without restriction

Selective: Means the mun hasvery specific standards by whicch they choose their RP-partner/ the threads the play/ the asks the answer

Semi-Selective: This is basically a less strict for than ‘Selective’. There still certain standards to meet, but the mun is less strict about it.

NPC-Status: Means that, like a game-npc, this muse will not roleplay unless directly engaged by other muses. Other muns can use muses with this status to develop their muses’ character and are of course free to mention these muses in their roleplay with others or invite the muses to take on a small role in a roleplay, they have with other muses.

Affiliate-muse: This means the muse is an affiliate to someone else’s muse and is only available for those, who already have threads with that other muse. E.g.: If Muse A is affiliate to Muse B, your muse needs to know Muse B first, before they can play with Muse A.

Kai-mun’s Roleplayrules §9 - Important Information in the meme tags/ replies

While memes and starters are a wonderful way to break the ice/get things started, they can also be a bit overwhelming, when there’s too much of them in the inbox. They can also be troublesome, if the meme sent doesn’t fit the muses. (e.g: A male muse sends a sex-meme to a lesbian muse, or a muse’s hated archenemy sends them a cuddle-meme, etc.) What is considered unfitting can differ from player to player. So please respect my right to be selective with what meme’s I reply to.

Furthermore, I always leave important informations in the tags of a meme and in my replies to memes. Please always read them before sending something.

The following information can be found in the meme-tags:

#only for [...] - means only specific muse’s are allowed to answer to that meme

#capped at [XX] - means that I will only reply to a restricted number of asks from that meme (XX is replaced with the number of asks, I reply to)

#please don’t send [...] - means I don’t want to get specific parts of that meme

#to be queued - means I will collect the asks and answer them later

The following information can be found in my reply:

The name and link to the meme I’m replying to

The meme-status (Accepting/not Accepting)

Kai-mun’s Roleplayrules §8 - Dos and Donts

"Do"s

⦁ Be polite! (Even if you've got a problem. Nothing gets solved with insults.) ⦁ Be fair! (Before you make fast decisions, discuss them with your partner. If you've got a problem with your partner, talk about it with them. Give others the same chances/ treatment, you want to be given.) ⦁ Be honest! (If you cannot, or do not want to do something, say so honestly. Most drama gets born from misunderstandings. If you're a minor, never lie about it.) ⦁ Respect boundaries! (A "no" means "no" and not "convince me". Always read and respect your partner's rules.) ⦁ Respect privacy! (Private information, as well as content of private conversation are not gossip-material. Treat the information, you get entrusted with, with care!) ⦁ Take the time, you need! (If you cannot write certain threads/ in general right now, tell you partner/s. Roleplay is a hobby and not a speed-writing competition.) ⦁ Take some time off, if you need it! (A hobby is supposed to be fun. If the fun's missing for you, take your time off. You don't need to explain your reasons, but telling your partners, that you take some time off, would still be considerate.) ⦁ Ask other players if they want to plot with you! (Roleplay is a form of communcation. It doesn't work, if you don't talk with one another.) ⦁ If you're unsure about something, ask your partner! (Always remember: Misunderstandings bear drama. Honest communication avoids misunderstandings.)

"Dont"s

⦁ Don't send anon-hate! (Either you want to have fun with others, or you want to pick a fight. If it's the latter, go to a boxing competition.) ⦁ Don't tag hate! (If you want to rant about something, do it, but don't tag it with the character's/fandom's/ship's/player's name. Tag's, you should use, are: #tw fandom critical; #tw character critical; #tw rant. So people can blog these tags, to protect their positive experience if needed.) ⦁ Don't guilt-trip! (It's okay to ask others for threads, or memes. It's okay to remind your partners, after some time of now reply/communication. It is not okay, to make them feel guilty for not catering to you.) ⦁ Don't vague-blog! (It's okay to rant about things that annoy you. But if you formulate it in a way that seems to point to certain people, you're only causing needless drama and often even hurt uninvolved people.) ⦁ Don't dictate others how to run their blog! (If you don't like certain things, ask for trigger- or squick-tags, that you can block. If you don't like how someone writes, blogs, formates, etc. use the unfollow-button.) ⦁ Don't god-mod! (Sometimes it's necessary to prem-emt certain actions, to develop the plot, but if in doubt always ask your partner first.) ⦁ Don't reblog other people's threads, without permission! (Even, if you're a private-blog! If you like a thread and want to share it, ask the players first! If you think your muse could interrupt this scene in a good way, ask the players first!) ⦁ Don't steal! (Be it icons, blog-designs, artworks, writings, etc. Don't take other people's creative/intellectual content, without permission!) ⦁ Don't stir up drama! (If you have a problem with a person, try to solve it in private, or unfollow/block them. Callout-posts seem like a nice gesture for your friends, but without proper proof, it's really just mean gossip. Private drama is not something to be discussed within the community!) ⦁ Don't ignore a character's background-information! (Always read another muse's about-page! Even canon-muses can have canon-divergent informations. If you think it's too much, ask your partner which information are mandatory. Little is more annoying for a player, than if another muse blatantly ignores important aspects of their muse, without good reason.)

Kai-Mun’s Roleplay Rules: §7 - NSFW and Fade to Black

While this mun personally has no problem with writing nsfw-themes (sexual content, violence, gore, character death, etc.), I know that some people have troubles with that. If you want to play a thread with me, that leads to such a scene and you do not wish it to be played out, you can always ask for a “fade to black”, or initiate it yourself.

The easiest way to do that is to simply write in brackets underneath your post:[Can we please fade to black now?] If you want me to initiate the “fade to black”.

If you want to initiate it, you can simply write [fade to black] and either continue after the fade, or let me continue in the next post.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplay Rules: §6 - Memes

All memes are open for people to answer.

Memes are a great way to break the ice.

Memes are fun.

See one you like? DO THE THING!!

Shipping memes are encouraged for those that have a ship with me.

If you send me a meme, that I cannot reply to without being OOC, I will not reply to it. Please bear with me.

Please read the tags of each meme I post. Sometimes I put restrictions for these memes in the tags.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplay Rules: §5 - Shipping

I Multi-Ship. All relationships are in separate verses and will not overlap unless all partys agreed to it.

Do not force a Ship on me and I will not force a Ship on you.

I ship Chemistry and in accordance to my muse’s sexuality. You can usually find my muse’s sexuality on the about-pages. If you are unsure, ask me.

NSFW will not happen unless there is chemistry.

Please respect, if I do not want to write NSFW for a certain ship. If in doubt, I can still offer a fade out.

I am a huge sucker to healthy polyamourosity. So, if you want to ship my muse within an OT3, just ask. If we can make it work, it will happen!

I do not expect Single-Shipping.

Please don’t expect Single-Shipping from me.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplay Rules: §4 - Greeters, Starters, Plotting

Sometimes I greet, sometimes I don’t. It depends on my mood and level of creativity and has nothing to do with preferences.

You are not obligated to follow back.

Greeters can quickly turn into a longer thread if needed.

Plotting is always welcome and highly encouraged.

If I post open starters you’re free to answer them, even if we haven’t interacted before, as long as you can make it work.

Please read the tags on Open Starters, because I put sometimes restrictions in the tags, as to what kind of muse can reply to the starter.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplay Rules: §3 - Roleplay

I will RP with OCs.

I will RP with Canon.

I will not RP Mpreg. (I just can’t fathom the concept)

I will not RP with/in a Verse I know nothing about. (this can easily change when I have learned about said verse.)

I will not RP crossovers.

I will not RP with anyone that guilt-trips me into RPing with them.

I will RP almost anything.

Do not God Mod.

Do not kill my muse without my permission.

I will RP with you even if I don’t follow you.

Take as long as you need to reply. I will wait as long as needed.

Please give me time to answer, for I usually have an overload of backlog to work on.

I will try to match you, you do not need to match me.

I will RP Banter, Crack, Single Para, and multi Para. On rare occasion I will write you a novel. Be warned.

I consider text-formatting an individual choice and while not judge you for how you do or do not format your text. I expect you to do the same with me.

[roleplayrules]

Kai-mun’s Roleplay Rules: §2 - Following and Interactions

I do not always follow back. This might be, because the blog you followed is a side blog, or because I found content on your blog, that I do not wish to have on my dash, or because I need to prevent dash-cluttering, etc. It does however not mean, that I doN’t want to roleplay with you.

If you are caught being a bully or sending anon hate I will drop any and all threads with you and block you. There is no exception to this.

When I post/reblog personal opinions, I will not partake in public discussions. If you wish to discuss matters with me, you are free to send me an ask, or a fanmail.

Each ask/fanmail, that is not RP-related will be answered, privately.

Replies/Reblogs to posts of mine, that are not RP-related will be answered privately.

Anon-hate, or any anon-message that is worded in a way that makes me believe the sender is trying to pick a fight with me, will be blocked and deleted without an answer.

The anon-function may be used for any roleplay-related, or private messages, as long as it is not for any negative purpose.

If you have a problem with me and want me to answer to it, you must send it on non-anon. I will reply privately, but reserve the right to cease the conversation, if I get the feeling that you cannot behave mature and respectful.

Kai-mun’s Roleplay-rules: §1 - Triggers and Squicks

This blog will contain darker themes, like gore, death, torture, violence, horror, etc. Threads that contain these themes will be put under a “read more”. Pictures containing these will be tagged as either: #horror tw, #gore tw, #violence tw. If you have personal psychological triggers, you’d like me to tag, please contact me via ask. I will not react to trigger-tagging-demands send on anon, due to the possibility of trolls.

If you have any squicks (no psychological triggers, but still things you don’t like seeing on your dash, you can tell me aon non-anon and I will discuss an appropriate tag with you and add it to the tag-list.

Please be fair to the people that might get hurt otherwise (E.g.: people with serious psychological triggers, that get riddiculed for it, because people use trigger as a different word for squick) and honestly differentiate between triggers and squicks.

Your notp can be tagged for you, but it is not necessarily a psychological trigger.
