GUIDELINES TO CREATING AN RP THREAD
Quote:
Each RP contains at least 3 threads: You should have:
* One INFO-Thread for all background/setting information.
* One RP-Thread for obvious reasons.
* One OOC-Thread for outgame information, questions and discussions concerning the RP.
All the RPs and their related threads should be created in the RP Workbench. When your RP is ready, the Crew or Guild Owner will move them to the appropriate forums.

Your RP should offer enough information. Your RP should offer future players at least following information:
* What is the RP about?
* What is the setting (environment, timeline, races...)
* Access to open plots or a general idea of the storyline is always useful.
* A Skeleton Character Sheet might be useful, too.
* Creating overpowered characters, auto-hitting, God-moding and puppeting is
NOT allowed.
* You will not create 15-year olds knowing arts that take a lifetime to master or characters that carry all legendary/unique equipment, wounds take time to heal, running long distances is tiresome...
* Immortal characters (as in: can't die by age, not as in: is immune to anything that kills it) are allowed if the RP Creator allows it.
You don't own the characters your players make, thus it is wise to communicate with a player if you need his/her character to do something specific.
If you use anything belonging to another artist or that is copyrighted, you credit as appropriate. If credits are lacking, your RP will be closed.
Editing something that already exists/copyrighted doesn't make it yours. You will still credit as appropriate.

Be careful with pushing storylines. Having an NPC, a deity or another means to get the story going is always interesting. However, it doesn't give you permission to auto-hit, God-mode or puppet characters. Be careful not to abuse your powers.
