Hey guys, so I wanted to post this here to let everyone know of yet another little shift we are making with our rules and admissions. When we opened this place it was with the intention of being a super relaxed environment, with limited rules, limited banned face claims, and just a place for people to come have a good time. And while I hope for the most part this hasn’t effected to many of you, my own muse has been effected by watching this place change into something I didn’t recognize. I wanted to make an RP that mimicked the real world and had endless possibilities with the unique twist of playable NPC’s, weekly events, and certain freedoms that you don’t find in a lot of RP’s. All while keeping in mind that this was made to be a mature environment. I think we’ve made ourselves pretty clear if you can’t act that way, you can see yourself out. So that being said the changes that I will be making will be listed below. If you have any questions feel free to ask them in an appropriate manner.
1. We will be removing acceptance days. Apps will be accepted as soon as they can be received and reviewed.
2. I have already started the process of removing a majority of the names off the banned face claim list. This may be a bit taboo to some of you but at the end of the day we are not playing actors. We are playing characters and like it or not these people exist in real life. We will be leaving a few of them up but denying apps based on face claims will be based on a case by case basis. Life isn’t fair sometimes.
3. AND LORD DO I MEAN THIS ONE. Moving forward I will have 0 tolerance for OOC drama. Any disrespect towards each others, or towards an admin will get you kicked. Any harassment towards each other, or towards an admin will get you kicked.
4. Some of you may have noticed that for a short time I disabled the Voice Chat feature in our Discord group. This was because of the fear that some might have had that it was causing cliqueness and bubble RPing. You’ll also notice I’ve brought it back. This is because the Voice Chat feature is open for EVERYONE. There are some people who really enjoy it and some people who don’t. Don’t like it? Don’t use it, but I’m not going to take it away from the people who do. And if you’re having a problem feeling like you’re not fitting in please message us off of anon. Any anons complaints about discord will be trashed because I can’t help if I don’t know who you are.
5. This kind of goes along with 4 but basically just addresses threads on the dash and starters. The reply to 2 before you do you rule is STILL IN EFFECT. That’s not changing. Just gotta do it. If you’ve been in the RP for more than 3 days the rule now applies to you. If you’re picking up a second character and it’s their first day, the rule still applies to you. Make sure you’re checking for starters with fewer than 5 notes. The amount we have buried in the tag right now is unacceptable. I want this place to be relaxed but I need you guys to work with me so I don’t have to start rolling out consequences for simple shit.
6. Communicate with each other. Be respectful. If you’re going to drop a thread because you aren’t feeling it, let that person know. Communication is always a two way street. If it’s been a few days and someone hasn’t responded, send them a quick “hey I was checking in to see how you’re feeling about our thread or if you want to try a new one?” Disappointment is a part of life but how we choose to deal with it is on us.
7. This is a place to have fun so lets try to do that. People lose muse when this starts to feel forced or like a job. I don’t want that for any of you. We’re all here to have a good time and enjoy and get really into some crazy ass plots so moving forward lets try to keep that in mind.
