-- Above All Else ; do not mix IC & OOC. This is a basic rule of thumb. This is zero tolerance. If you mix the two, there is no warning; if you do this and it is brought to our attention it is grounds for an automatic removal.

-- THIS IS A COVID-FREE GAME: As of September 2020 this game will be an alternative game that is not dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic and it is a pandemic-free game to help alleviate some of that stress from the gaming experience.

-- Must have at least one icon uploaded and a journal name registered that pertains to the character in question.

-- Played-by character must be over the age of 18 years old. This is a game of 18+ players, therefore the characters and their played-by faces need to be 18+. We recommend your character be in the age range your played-by is/looks.

-- Your played-by doesn't have to be mega famous, as long as they're easily searchable and we can find them without a struggle, you can PB whoever the hell you want. We don't dictate your creativity through who you choose to use.

-- When applying, make sure you have a Friends Only post/contact post, a link to the character's biography, and an overview of the character. We don't require a Tolkien novel, but we want you to get to know your characters so we can get to know them. 10-20 facts are suffice if a full written biography isn't your thing.

-- Please make sure any posts made in your journal (Tinder, playlists, etc.) are backdated prior to entry in game.

-- When applying, we require one scene example and one narrative/journal entry example so we can see your abilities.

-- If you are added to the community on or around the half-way mark of the month, you are exempt from the activity requirement for that month.

-- Trigger warnings for sensitive materials are a must

-- We do not police your characters. If you would like your character to be a musician, make them a musician. A well known artist? So be it. An average college student who works at a cafe in Midtown? Knock yourself out. We want you to be as free as you would like to be when creating your characters and letting them live their best lives. Be as creative as you want to be. We don't mind faux-celeb as long as you use proper disclaimers and we encourage you not to treat your characters like you're celeb-gaming the played-by.

-- Character limit is five per player. If we notice that you are struggling to keep up with your load, we will ask you to lessen it but we have faith in you that you won't take on more than you can handle. We just wanted to offer people a chance to branch out and explore their muses without a major hinderence. Please let us know, when applying, if you play someone else in the community as well just so we can keep track of everyone.

-- This is not a PSL community so please branch out and interact with everyone. We don't do clique activity here and that type of behavior will result in a warning should we see it made a habit.

-- Two Strikes You're Out: If the moderators are brought in to solve a dispute between players, which we hope you could solve on your own, you will receive a warning. We will monitor you and should a second conversation need to happen, we will remove your character(s) from game. We expect that those gaming are mature enough to handle their business themselves with other gamers and to act in a respectful manner but if we are brought into disputes, we will handle it accordingly.

This isn't a university course, this is an RPG game where we want you to have fun. Our activity requirements are lax because we don't enjoy games that require your first born child and sacrifices on the full moon every calendar month. We know life happens. We don't want your life to revolve around roleplaying but we sure as hell want to offer you a place to enjoy it.

-- We require two "entries" per month: this can be a random entry posted about what your characters are doing, passing thoughts they want to share with the community, playlists/music shares, discussions about interests to promote activity, a narrative (we don't do word-count requirements - write until YOU are satisfied with it.), social media 'cross-posts', etc. There are no limits. We just want to see your faces on the Friend's Page.

-- Interacting with other people's posts: comment on each other's stuff! Make each other feel good. Share things with each other, become friends, foster interaction organically, just be around. That's the only requirement.

-- There will be a check mark next to your name in the cast list when your activity for the month is tracked. We will post a reminder about activity throughout the month or with adds and we will monitor it ourselves so you don't have to report in to us.
