Editing RP rules - Note 3442

Area: Announcements - Note #3442<br />From: Tyr<br />To: all <br />Cc: <br />Subj: rp rules<br />Time: Fri Jun 26 17:36:46 2009<br /><br />I just thought I should write this note to check if people have actually read the RP<br />rules and to remind people to please follow them.<br /><br />Help rp rules, help rp rule 3, help merit.<br /><br />Some things I've noticed in the game recently are pretty obviously breaking these<br />rules and I'd rather not have to get out my big whacking stick over it.<br /><br />Specifically; If your character is away for a length of time, do not RP them being<br />kidnapped and horribly tortured etc please. It's grossly unfair to characters who<br />actually undergo real unpleasant things happening to their character in game to have<br />their sympathy and what have you stolen by someone with some fantasy torture story.<br /><br />Also, please don't RP your char having some musical ability without a musical job,<br />being a model without working out to the maximum possible, or being famous etc without<br />some code support for that.<br /><br />Don't write events that aren't the fault of your character's conscious will, and also<br />please don't play a character that's really two characters in one body.<br /><br />Lastly, don't take a job your character couldn't logically ICly have, because they're too<br />young, or ICly have a criminal record etc.<br /><br />I'm sure there are more issues but those're the four that jumped out at me recently,<br />these issues are well covered in the helpfiles I believe and I will happily answer<br />any questions on them if asked, even if you just want to know why they're there or<br />debate their worthiness.
