Title: General Rules & Posting
Description: Important and essential - please read!

Like the normal rules...
-No spamming/flaming.
-Use proper English and punctuation.
-Show common courtesy toward other members.

Posting
-You will start ONE topic that chronicles your entire journey. It'll be moved throughout the different areas as you finish playing in them. If your topic is not at the top of the display list, don't worry about it. Moderators will not neglect topics just because they're further down the list.
-Please do not double post in roleplay boards.
-Here's how you post in roleplays:

You, as the member/player, can decide what you want to do, and a moderator will pick up after you, deciding what the result of your previous decision will lead to. From there, you'll go like that.

If the above did not make any sense to you, take a look at the following example.

QUOTE
Member: (insert member's name here) walked into the forest. Delcatty, the Pokemon accompanying him/her, immediately sensed the presence of another, larger Pokemon. Fur bristling in anxiety, Delcatty growled and stepped forward. (insert member's name here) prepared for a battle with a wild Pokemon.


A moderator's response could be as follows:

QUOTE
Moderator/Senior: In the fraction of a second, a large Beedrill flew out of the trees ahead, buzzing in clear aggravation. It shot toward Delcatty like a bullet, but the feline Pokemon dashed out of the way just in time. The Beedrill's large wings stirred up a cloud of dust, and with a narrow turn, charged back at Delcatty.


From here, the member would post his/her and his/her Pokemon's actions, and continue from there. Being over-descriptive is not required, but please don't post simple lines like "And Bob told his Delcatty to use Tackle". A good two or three paragraphs would be nice.

If a moderator does not post in your thread for over 24-48 hours, feel free to send a Private Message. Also feel free to chill out for a while in the other forum categories because remember, this not just an RPG forum. =3

Moderators are also allowed to play in the RPG. They will be "modded" by other moderators.
