Welcome to Gaia! ::

Okay, as much as we all hate rules, I feel they are necessary for a friendly and happy roleplaying environment. Granted, there will be a different sect of rules in the OoC/Chat Subforum (coming soon).

Rules

1.Abide by the Gaian TOS.
2.No netspeak or leet. (Aka: Tlking lyk dis or m4|| i pwn3d j00!)
3.No Godmoding or Powerplaying
4.Be nice to others (No Flaming, etc...)
5.Keep it PG-13, or thereabouts. Violence is acceptable as well as some gore. Romance is okay, but if you're gonna cyber, take it to PMs or elsewhere. No one else wants to see that. Language is fine with me, but each individual RP can set their own rating for this.
6.Use complete sentences.
7.Use Capitalization! (Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.)
8.I'm all for using colourful fonts and having fun with personalizing your posts, but please make your post readable! The following colours are unreadable for me and possibly many others: Yellow, Cyan, and White. If there are other colours you cannot read, please specify which. ^^

Consequences

Yes, consequences are necessary, too. As much as I dislike having to enforce consequences, and be "mean", without consequences, rules mean nil. So, do me a favor, and don't break the rules, so I can be nice!

idea First Offence The first time I find you have broken a rule, I will send you a friendly reminded, explaining what was done wrong, and asking you to please correct it.
idea Second Offence The second time I find you have broken a rule, I will again send you a reminded, and delete your post altogether.
idea Third Offence The third time I find you have broken a rule, I will delete your post without warning. If you are confused as to why it has disappeared, message me, and I will gladly explain.
idea Fourth Offence The fourth time I find you have broken a rule, I will ban you. I give you four chances, and that's it.

Now, I don't think these rules are too difficult to abide by, and I don't want to have to /ever/ ban anyone. Certainly, the consequences may be slightly more lenient in the way of Capitalization and complete sentences. I mean, we all make typos, I understand that.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here, or perhaps send me a message. If a question arrises multiple times, I will post it under a FAQ section.

Hmm... perhaps.
I think I need a guild mule for that, though, since I have no way of isolating my own money for that, and the guild account is for subforums only.
And we need more members, hehe.

A guild mule... A mule is an account that's pretty much used only for holding gold or items.
