Title: Official Role-playing Rules (Read First before posting)
Post by: The Lady Shael on May 20, 2011, 10:28:28 AM
Please read the following role-playing rules. This may be added to later on.


1. Use proper English. Please do your best to use correct spelling and grammar and do not use shortcuts like "ur" for "your" or "2" for "to", etc.

2. No god-moding. Do not take control of any other person's characters. You cannot force them to do an action against their will.

3. Stay accurate. Remember this is set in the Redwallian universe, which is set in medieval times. Thus, no tanks or guns or modern technology.

4. No Mary-Sues. There is no such thing as a perfect character, every character has their flaws. Do not give your character super-strength, super-intelligence, super-everything-else because that's just not realistic.

5. Keep to a PG-13 Level. No extreme language, adult themes, or graphic violence.


Character profiles are not necessary, but if you do not post one beforehand, make sure your role-play post includes a sufficient description of your character so others know how to interact with them.

It is recommended that your role-play is related to in-game RWL events, but not required.

Keep roleplay PG13, right?

Thanks, Krowdon, yes, keep all roleplay posts PG-13 (although that really goes for any post on this forum).

I don't think PG-13 is the right term, unless language, partial nudity and sex are alright for the forums.

Then PG. And usually our characters are animals anyway. They're naked all the time. Nudity doesnt count. And sex is a big no no.

The only one I usually associate with PG-13 is swearing. I've yet to see a PG-13 movie that involves sex. (usually implies that it happened, but doesnt show it. Of course, I dont get around to movies a lot)

My RP guy wears clothes, thank you very much. Krowdon is just a nudist.

Sure, I can change it to PG. I was thinking PG-13 more along the lines of violence, I would think a PG-rating on roleplay violence would restrict us too much.

she wears clothing. Im not saying she walks around naked, that'd be a little weird. Im just saying I dont think nudity applies to animals. And this is a forum, so unless someone posted a picture or got /really/ descriptive, nudity wouldnt count.

I think PG-13 is fine, because the rules on language and sexual themes apply to the entire forum as a whole, so leaving it PG13 for violence is fine.

Agreed! For the sex, nudity and language its in the forum roles...basically so I think we should be able to judge it correctly

Also my character wears clothes lol

(sidenote....Should we make a RP where it could be like a book Brian Jacques wrote...we organize the idea, plot and which side everyone is on...I think it would be fun and dedicate it to him. Something to do but we don't have to...it is summer so I am a little bored haha)

I think that'd be a great idea, TS.  :) I'm sure a lot of people would be willing to help plan it out.

Cute?! Seriously cute...thanks!

Obviously I am clearly not the best writer around these parts either.

@Shael where to make a topic for what to do? Polls/General/News/Spa???

It's okay to make the discussion/planning topic here in the role-play forum, but I don't think many of the older members still look at this forum. This is probably still the best location for it though.

Alright I made a generic one where people can throw around ideas and then twist them

Let's face it. If redwall was attacked by tanks then a badger would come out with a chainsaw dressed like Jason and slaughter the vermin army while Redwall miracualously manages to dodge the shells and the tank driver would kill the vermin instead.

Oh yeah, I'm also someone who posted something based off of what he saw from one RP and has no idea what he's doing. HELP! (or not. meh. whatever).

He posted that almost a year ago, Waynor

Yeah. Posting on something that hasn't been active for more than 5 months is considered reviving an old topic, unless you have something very important. Otherwise, you have to make a new topic about it. :)

No he is just stating common fourm manners.  Linking to the old topic is fine, but people often do not like dead topic comming back.
