1. No Out of Character fighting- if you have a problem with someone, take it up with them via PM. If the problem cannot be resolved between you two, notify one of the staff members. Otherwise, we'll get tired of it after awhile and ban you both.
2. No metagaming/godmodding- metagaming is when you use out of character knowledge in a roleplay setting. For example: Magnamon is fighting Beelzemon. Say, Beelzemon's roleplayer tells Magnamon's roleplayer about a weakness that Beelzemon has. If Magnamon suddenly knows this weakness, that's metagaming. Godmodding is when you act out another character's actions for them without the other roleplayer's permission. For example: Magnamon delivered a Magna Punch straight into Beelzemon's gut, sending him flying into a mountain. This is NOT okay. Godmodding can also translate to not allowing your character to lose or even take damage in some cases. Your character is NOT Goku or Naruto or even a main character in one of the Digimon animes. He is NOT invincible, he is NOT going to keep finding some way to get up, and he is NOT capable of gaining insane levels of power after nearly dying(minus a Digivolution or two for some of the lower-leveled folks).
3. If the staff tells you to do something, do it, especially when it's app-related. We're not trying to be mean when we tell you to change something. We have standards here, and if your app doesn't meet them, we'll ask you to change them. If you don't like it, there's a little button on the top right of your screen. It looks like an x in a red background. Click it.
4. Your posts MUST be at least two paragraphs long. A paragraph is five-to-seven sentences long. More is better though and encouraged. If someone asks you to lengthen your post, indulge them on it, okay? It can't hurt you to add MORE to a post. Also, please post in the past tense. It's much easier to read that way.
5. There's a three-strike system in place. If you're told that you have a strike against you(via PM or c-box), you can take it up with a staff member. We WILL tell you why. If you disagree, then give us a reason to take it off. I'm not guaranteeing you'll get the decision over-turned, but not defending yourself is worse since we won't know your side of the story.
6. Don't advertise except in the advertising board. Doing so will NOT be tolerated.
7. See these rules? Go through and read them again. Once you read them the second time, you may skip this rule.
