1. No godmodding/powerplaying. Meaning...
2. NO telling people who to pair the characters with.
3. If you have signed up for a RPG and are not able to participate for a certain reason, please let the other players know in advance. It's not fair if you keep them waiting.
4. NO telling people how to play their characters. (credit to One Eyed Warrior for this rule).
5. Stick to the RPG plot at hand. NO taking the plot on a different tangent without warning. (people get annoyed when you start a plot and then decide to quit it and go completely to a new one when the characters are in the process of a plot. It's not fair to the other players or the characters. It's like when you're working on something and then bam! suddenly the power goes out and you have to start all over again because you lost everything... well it's like that with rpgs that totally change the plot around without notice. And there are people who read the rpgs, guests and members)
6. RPGs are a team effort. There shouldn't be statements like 'I thought of the idea, so I should be able to say what goes'
7. There are some "private RPGs" and just regular "RPGs".
8. Much of the same fanfiction procedures also apply to RPGs. Please read "Fanfiction Procedures REVAMP!" to see what is and isn't allowed.
9.Everyone has a right to pick, choose and refuse who to roleplay with, so if someone has a legitimate reason not to roleplay with you, or to cut you off as an RP buddy, accept it. Don't keep harassing them until they change their minds.
- no controlling the actions of someone else's characaters without their permission
- no having characters who are perfect
- no killing a player's character without permission and saying what's going to happen to them

7. There are some "private RPGs" and just regular "RPGs".
- The Private ones are set up for a certain set of members and the description of the rpgs will state on which members are playing in the privates. Private RPGs are also set in their own subboards. New players can not join in without permission.
- The regular ones are set up for anyone to join. There is no permission needed to join in, though new players will have to figure out which characters to use and current players can relinquish some of their characters to allow others to join in.
