THIS LIST OUTDATED! PLEASE REFER TO THE COLORED "FORUM RULES" LINK BELOW THE NAVBAR TO VIEW THE CURRENT AND UP-TO-DATE RULES.
OUT-OF-CHARACTER RULES
1. Respect the other members.
2. Keep swearing in check. Please refrain from excessive curse words. I will silence and ban users without warning if it gets out of hand.
3. NO spamming or trolling.
4. Use correct grammar, spelling and punctuation (to the best of your abilities) at all times.
5. Users may not have multiple accounts under the same email. Any new accounts will be deleted ASAP.
6. Patience is a virtue. Please keep in mind that I personally am a busy person. On some instances I'm bombarded with many issues for the site. Please keep in mind that I read anything sent to me. I just need time to get to it.
7. Age of War has maintained a "Constitutional Monarchy" approach. In general, the members make important decisions based on votes. However, should the occasional conflict occurs, the Admins have the absolute word and what they say is final, until they otherwise say it isn't.
IN-CHARACTER RULES
1. No “god mode”
2. Do not roleplay another character's thoughts, actions, or decisions unless you have permission from the character's owner.
3. No “Mary-Sue” elitism.
5. Write in the third-person past tense with limited perspective and use correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
6. All IC posts must be 3 sentences or longer.
7. This is a text-based RPG, meaning that there are no statistics or anything of that sort.
8. Interact with other players as much, and as soon, as possible.
9. The only person that can kill your character is you, unless otherwise permitted by that character's owner.
10. Double posting will be allowed under certain conditions. This includes single user threads, and other instance I cannot think of at the moment. If you're in doubt, please PM a staff member with your questions.
11. In very, very, very rare instances, intense subjects (such as abuse or rape) may be necessary to enhance or continue a character's story arc. I am not opposed to these being used, however, I request you put the post in the spoiler tags and in large lettering, a warning to readers of the intense material. Also, please notify staff of such posts, before posting. Failing to comply with any of these criteria will result in immediate, irrevocable hard banning. (In addition to the account being banned, the IP and email will be banned.)
12. When transitioning from one area to another, and to help keep the enters and exits straight, please post: "[Insert Character Name Here] heads to [Insert New Location Here]" or something along those premises. Should you need to add a last minute action, please keep in mind the 3-Sentences Rule still counts and that the starred action does NOT count.
CLASSIC AGE OF WAR FORUM RULES
1. Users may have only two characters.
2. Other rules stated above must still be applied.
EVOLVED AGE OF WAR FORUM RULES
1. You may have up to 10 characters. You may pick and choose between where they live and reside. They may interact with each other, however, double posting is still restricted, regardless of multiple characters. Please combine multiple dialogue between characters in one post or wait for a new post. I also encourage color coding different dialogue together for users to better distinguish the conversation.
2. All lands in the Evolved Age of War section are connected. Characters may travel through with each other. For more information, please refer to here: http://www.warofages.org/showthread.php?t=237
3. The timeline and stories. This is by far the most confusing for new members. In short: Labrynna and Holodrum have been fighting for decades with each other. The conflict has drawn Hyrule into it to relieve the battleground: Ordona. While Hyrule is vunerable, Ganondorf seizes his opportunity and takes over. Termina has an emerging, tyrannical monarchy, with war being a side-effect of their rise to power. Logata, the community-created island, is now being conquered by the mysterious, and powerful Imperator, Rhykim.
4. With the Twilight Realm being playable, there is however, a character limitation to it. Posts are counted and you earn "rupees" from posting. You may buy a special item, the Moon Pearl, which will keep your character's natural/human form between the realms. If you are from the Light World, then, without the item, you will transform into a non-combat animal, and if you're from the Twilight Realm going to the Light World, you will transform into a non-combat being. With the Moon Pearl, you may keep your form between the realms.
SIGNATURE RULES
1. You may have multiple images in your signature that are at most 500 x 150. They most also be underneath each other, not side by side.
CHARACTER APPLICATION RULES
1. Your character must be approved before you can play as them.
2. You can not play as a copyrighted Nintendo character, as you may not play as any character from a TV show or movie. ALL characters MUST BE ORIGINAL.
3. For actions your character does, please write it out as if you as you would write it in a book. Do not use asterisks (*) to indicate actions.
SHOUTBOX RULES
1. Do not flame, troll, or curse at all.
2. Do not talk about ***ual things.
3. With Skyward Sword still being fairly new, I am no longer banning SS talk in the chat, however, please be kind and courteous of others and respect their requests if they do not to hear it. This applies to all other games as well. Gaming is fun for everyone, don't spoil it. I will silence and ban without warning.
4. DO NOT SPAM THE CHAT! Anything over 5 lines of shouts will result in a silence until the staff member sees fit. It is possible to edit your own shouts. You can double click it, and either edit or delete it.
