the out-of-character rules
★ The rating of Proboards is PG-13. "Rise of Destiny" is the same rating. Moderate swearing is allowed, as well as moderate violence. For more information, please proceed to MPAA or PROBOARDS TERMS OF SERVICE.
☆ Please do not GODMOD. The original definition of godmodding was to turn on the "god mode" of a computer game. In the terms of roleplaying, this means to exert too much control over other plots or characters. Do not create invincible characters. Do not control other characters. Do not display OOC knowledge of characters in-character without the writer's expressed permission. Read the posts of the other characters to make sure that you are not performing impossible actions. Life will not go as the character expects 100% of the time. Do not change the world around your character to make sure the character stays on top.
★ Do not STRETCH the board with images, templates, or other sources of material that could potentially make the scrolling bar for the website go horizontal instead of vertical. Any sources of stretching will be promptly deleted.
☆ RESPECT your fellow roleplayers and the staff members. If you are consciously aware that your behaviour is not positive, then it shouldn't be a behaviour that you keep. Toxic behaviour will be dealt with accordingly. Know when to be mature.
★ Keep your posts LEGIBLE. This includes grammatical errors, spelling errors, and whatever post, plot, thread or whatever templates you wish to utilize. There are more people who have visual disabilities that roleplay than most people think. Please be conscious of what you write and your choices of colours, fonts and size of script. Any offending posts will likely be deleted or edited, and their posters will be spoken to.
☆ "Rise of Destiny" is a LITERATE roleplaying site. This does not mean your amount of experience with roleplaying, it means that you must have some kind of grasp on the English language and display it regularly. Your posts are expected to have substance, but also to have some imagination! Some spelling errors and grammatical errors are natural, but one should learn from their mistakes, and if they have severe issues with spelling or grammar then they need to really use a program like Microsoft Word or Open Office.
★ HAVE FUN! This forum is meant to be fun for all who are involved. If you start treating the forum too seriously, the forum will likely become unfun. Come talk in the ShoutBox. Make friends. Grab a drink. Stay a while. Don't get too rowdy. We're all family here.
☆ More rules can be added at any time, without warning. Please CHECK THIS PAGE REGULARLY for changes.
