Role play rules
by Admin Sun Aug 13, 2017 2:26 pm
1. Following all rules.
It should be realized that the common misconception, “rules are meant to be broken” is not necessarily true, rather that rules are there for a common guideline to be followed, granted they are not all perfect or absolute to every situation, but are not to be blatantly broken.
2. Respect.
This doesn't mean show it to just staff members but to ALL members. Even if you do not like another player/s you should still act maturely or neutrally towards them. How you choose to treat others in the community is up to you, but if you want respect you should give some as well. Any problems should be addressed with council members and handled accordingly.
3. Be straight up.
There's no need to lie or make up excuses for a bad behavior. Being truthful makes it easier for the council to make decisions, it also shows that we can trust you to be honest with us.
4. Showing Loyalty.
If you see something going on behind the RP's back, bring it up to the council. This doesn't make you a rat, but shows where your loyalties truly lie.
5. Be cooperative, listen, and keep it calm.
If you have issues, or if a staff member approaches you with advice or a concern, please be open to listening and calmly discussing it with them. Raging and threatening the RP or staff member only makes it worse for you and may do more harm than good where you are concerned.
6. Be a team player.
Encourage others to be the best they can be by setting a good example. If a newbie needs help, help them or direct them to the appropriate person/place to get the answers they need. Being a role model roleplayer makes the RP session go more smoothly and more enjoyable for staff and other community members.
7. Make it fun.
Make sure when you are incorporating a “fun idea” into your characters storyline, that is not destructive, or disruptive to others storylines, definitely not personal. We allow for a lot of creativity but mainly when it benefits the community as a whole. So while it may be a fun for you, please be considerate for other community members as well. If it involves others, plan it out with them, otherwise things could go badly and may not end well. If the scene you have planned involves several elements it should be cleared by the council before implementing it in RP.
Also, admins can help with NPC's and such, but it is your responsibility to create your own fun without relying solely on staff to entertain you.
8.Banks and Character Backgrounds.
Be sure you always keep these updated and complete! This includes your DMV as well. If in doubt label every little thing ASAP. If it's not in your CBG or Bank then it is not in your possession or doesn't exist for your character. Essentially it cuts down on confusion, mishaps, and scenes being altered or deleted.
9.Attendance.
While attendance is not mandatory, if we notice that you have been gone weeks we will try to contact you. If we get no response, at that point we will assume you are no longer interested in being a member and will remove you from the invite list.
10.Patience.
Keep in mind that Admins/Staff members can be busy doing other things while in and out of RP. Please, do not spam them with messages, private chats, or party invites. We may not be able to get to you right away, but we are not ignoring you either, and we will try to get to in a timely manner. However, if it gets to where it is overwhelming with trying to get their attention you may end up getting ignored anyway.
Death- If someone kills you in the role play you are dead depending on the situation. If you are in a firefight and you get shot and killed you are dead. But if you are hit and killed by a car (Even NPC) you are not dead and have to go back to where it happened and get a doctor to help you some how within 10 minutes or you will die from your wounds.
Meta-gaming- You can not use things your character does not know in the role play.
FailRP- If something has happened in the RP that does not seem quite right. Do not do it.
Example-If you are handcuffed and put into the back of a police cruiser you cannot just get out of the car.
Power-gaming- If you have power over someone, don't abuse it
Assgunning- Do not pull out a 2 handed weapon out of your ass
Random death match- Do not kill if you do not have a legitimate RP reason to kill someone
Random destruction- Do not cause chaos in the RP.
