NiKKo Roleplay Rules

exclaim There have been lots of problems lately and some people are not RPing their Nikkos correctly.

1. No pimping out of babies, tots, or kids.
Babies, tots, and kids do not have romantic feelings for the opposite gender. If you were a parent wouldn't you get nervous if your 2 year old wanted to get his freak on with the hot tot down the street?? gonk

2. No begging or guilt-tripping.
If you can't afford a nikko, do not come in begging others for one. Just save up. If you find enough random events and save up as you post alot you can get one. Also donating gets you 4.5k for every 2.50 you give to Gaia. I am going to start blacklisting beggars. As for guilt tripping don't do it! People usually come on the internet to have fun and escape their problems IRL. No one wants to talk to someone who is always guilting them out of their stuff. This will start being a bannable offense as well.

3. When rping or even chatting in the lodge, try to use proper grammar and spelling!
I know that some of you can't for various reasons. 3nodding It is hard to read something when half the words are just one character like "2 for two/too, u for you, r for are/our, 8 for ate.. etc etc..." Also make sure you are posting in English. Not everyone can understand foreign languages, after all. If you provide a translation just below what you or your pet are saying, then it's alright to post in another language.

4. When talking about yourself use "me: what you say/do".

5. When talking out of character use (( and ))

6. Do not PM someone who does not RP their nikkos and ask if you can have them. Maura Rune has this fostering program that lets you take care of someone's nikkos who can't take care of them theirselves. She is having real life issues so this program is temporarily disabled.

7. Obey all shop staff. If they tell you that you are doing something against the rules, do not talk back.

8. If someone is doing you wrong in the guild, PM a guild mod first before a Gaia mod. If the guild mod can't help you..then go to a Gaia mod.

9. No Godmodding! Godmodding is when you take control of someone else's pet and make them do what you want. Godmodding is very much frowned upon and can get you blacklisted after your first warning.

10. When rping, keep any rp that is taking place in the main shop thread in the shop. If you want to rp outside, then make a thread here in the guild for that.

11. When rping, avoid mentioning bodily functions, such as peeing, pooping, throwing up, belching, farting, etc. in any of your posts. It's disgusting and is not considered good roleplay etiquitte. It grosses people out. You will get two warnings and only two warnings with this one. If you do it after you've been warned two times, you will be greylisted. Anymore after you've been put on the greylist, and you will be banned from the shop and the guild.
