Roleplay Rules
Always write as literately as possible.
An occasional spelling error is no problem, but always try your best to
use proper grammar! Try and make your posts at least 2-3 sentences
long, and use descriptive language to help others visualize the scene.
Write in third person.
While it may be tempting to shift into first person,
it's best if we all write in the same style. While there is some
wiggle room for our own creative writing style, we should all
stick to the same general format. When writing about your
character, use their name, or he/she. Never use the
word "I" while narrating.
No god-modding or power playing.
Sure, some characters may be stronger than others.
But when roleplaying with another character you need to give
them the opportunity to react. You can't automatically hit or injure
someone without them given the chance to dodge or retaliate. That said,
you can't dodge every hit, either. You must find balance as you are fighting.
You need to be realistic.
Try and do some basic research on felines and their behavior so when
you roleplay, you can accurately represent the species you are playing as.
Though we do allow some human-like activities such as laughing, crying,
etc., don't get too carried away with this. Be sure to add some feline-like
behavior such as grooming, hunting, etc., to keep it balanced.
No mary sues.
You can't have a perfect character. As a general rule of thumb, your
character should have at least one positive, one neutral, and one
negative trait. These can be physical traits or personality
traits, but one way or another, your character should
have a flaw of some sort. Be creative.
Don't be a drama queen.
If you make a post and someone doesn't reply because they are busy roleplaying with others,
don't have your character start crying about how everyone ignores them. You can't expect
everyone to make your character the center of attention. If you want to join in, don't just
sit in the background and expect everyone to come approach you without reason.
You have to insert yourself, create a scenario for others to respond to.
