If your story's content is too graphic for Buffy the Vampire Slayer or X Files, it's too graphic. No matter how well written, cybersex is out. If you wouldn't do it in the mall, your characters shouldn't be doing it in this room.

POLITE BEHAVIOR:

Behave respectfully towards each other, treat others as you would want to be treated yourself. Be tolerant of other players! If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all, and don't critique a game unless you're actively involved in it. If an OOC arguement should erupt, don't jump in. Asking people to take it to PM and/or contact staff is the best way to handle this. Everyone is here to have fun, and while some folks' gaming style may differ greatly from yours, telling them you consider their character or story lame or stupid only creates hurt feelings. It doesn't change anyone's style of play, and just results in an arguement that disturbs everyone else's game. When in doubt, please ask a more experienced player, check further here in the Guidebook, or email the inn. Use the Ignore feature instead of arguing with another player.

Whatever should transpire between Characters, the Players should show basic respect to one another, refraining from OOC name calling, insults or unwelcome criticism concerning Role Play style or knowledge. We must all understand that this is just a game and meant to be played In Character. If a Character is rude or combatant towards your character it is not meant as a personal reflection of his/her feelings towards you. If you feel another player is being unfair with his/her role play, rather than disrupt the Role Playing enviroment with OOC arguements or name calling, any disputes concerning conflicts in Role Playing styles should be handled in PM's or a private room. Also, if you are unable to settle dispute you may ask for someone to mediate.
