Examples of God Moding Syndrome
-Invincibility Complex:
Said character is ‘not’ receiving any form of injury, sickness, etc, what so ever… even in the middle of the biggest war in the known world. Fifty thousand arrows are flying at said person, and they manage to dodge ‘every’ one. Not even Jet Li could avoid fifty thousand arrows in Hero, so I doubt anyone else could. In battles? In a fight? I think not. Even the best of fighters would get several injuries, minor to even severe. It’s just how things are.
-Enduring Heroic Resilience
So they’ve been struck by an arrow. Fifty times. Maybe just once, but it only pierced through a lung, but hell they’ve got two of those, they’ll do without… and of course they don’t bleed as much as anyone else. They solider through, no matter how many foreign objects invade the sanctity of their body, they endure, shrug off the blinding pain with every motion, no matter how big or how small, despite chucks of their flesh missing, they endure! Get real. Or, on another level, they ‘are’ hit, yet they just continue to completely ignore the consequences of ‘being’ hit. That arrow lodged in their shoulder can’t prevent them from lifting their six foot sword of doom!
-Jack of All Trades
They are the best of the best. They are the best in the land, top of their class, the student who defeated the master. They know all there is to know about any skill, have infinite power, and magically also know other things that they shouldn’t, without even having to of trained or studied them! They can even pick up on the skills of others by only seeing them do it once. But, alas, this is not something that’s possible, for anyone, not even game characters and this can lead to trouble. If players are at the receiving end of a God-Moder’s mega skills, it either intimidates their character into submission when they otherwise wouldn’t do so, or it forces them to compensate for the abusive player, and do as they do… gain more skills, or have a ‘better’ skill. If players keep going this path, it makes things complicated and messy for any story plot.
-The Sixth Sense
Knowing something that they otherwise wouldn’t, the player acts upon their ‘psychic’ senses, that we call a ‘Sixth Sense’, and see, hear and know things that their character wouldn’t. It’s basically them giving their character ‘their’ knowledge of the game and using it to their benefit. Like characters reading thoughts of others, or knowing what’s to come in the quest ahead and acting upon said knowledge. Their character knows something bad is going to happen, or that someone is evil, just because they do… because they are ‘that’ perceptive. They are beings that are so wise, not surprised by anything, mind reading masters and ever knowing oracles. Wow. Sneak attacks and puzzles just aren't what they use to be? Maybe it's because there's no risk of failure, or that they just can’t stand the fact that their character ‘could’ fail. Some times it's cool to get that eerie vibe and whip around, beating up the minor enemy, its understandable, but if a player ventures too far in to that realm and see every thing coming, knows everything that’s going to happen, and has knowledge about everything and everyone (even though you just ‘met’ the other character) your not only going to have bored characters, you’ll have angry players.
-Action Controllers
These players are ranked pretty high in the GMS types, for the fact that it is harmful. Players with this type tend to take over the actions of other characters, without permission, and often with ill results.
-Spotlight Hero
They tend to want the game spotlight on themselves, and can and will often do crazy and stupid things to keep it. It can range from their characters actions, attempting to pull everything around themselves, to discussing with other players and ‘weaseling’ their ideas into a plot that somehow put them at the forefront. They form ‘clicks’ where they play with certain people and ignore other players, especially if they attempt to steal their ‘stage’. They constantly make people compensate or rework their plots for their foolery. They act out of character at times, perform actions that conflict with their character/racial profile, but justify it as character development or ‘necessary’ for the game. When they make plots they primarily center on their own character(s) and do things that just aren’t possible, logical, or don’t make any form of sense.

3. Taking over someone else's character or killing their character without their permission is forbidden. The only time this is waved is if the character's player has broken the rules and the Crew feel there is no alternative but to eliminate said character.
4. No Cardboard Characters. Characters from a movie, anime series, game, etc. You can have your character look similar to a character/person, maybe have a somewhat similar background, if you wish, but try to keep your characters original in all respects. "No Plagiarism"
5. Rude behavior or harassment toward any player, crew or the group is not acceptable. This will result in instant removal from the game. We don't expect everyone to get along at all times, but be civil.
6. The Captain and Crew retain the right to control the RP's progress and content, and to add new content and edit existing content. They also retain the right to ban any members not following the Code of Conduct.
7. Joint posting, meaning a collaborated post with one or more players via email or chat, is acceptable and encouraged.
8. Comments, Suggestions and Reactions... PM Me or any other crew member.
9. Enjoy yourself!
