- Powerplaying and Godmodding ~
Powerplaying which means taking control of the actions of someone elses characters is not allowed unless! Unless, the owner of that character has allowed it, but if so, then the owner of the character has to PM an admin so that we know. Godmodding, which is forced blows, over-powering, in other words, being invincible, is not allowed either. Wether you are a teacher or a student, all characters have a weakness, so play them out. As for forced blows, it's unfair to the player of the other character to not get time to react, so please avoid forced blows etc.

Etymology
Middle English gramere, from Old French gramaire, alteration of Latin grammatica, from Greek grammatik*, from feminine of grammatikos, of letters, from gramma, grammat-, letter; see gerbh- in Indo-European roots.
Examples on how we want the role playing: Please make it with periods, capitals, and try to use spell check. Make sure your posts are four sentances long at the minimum. .
Example
Amelia stepped into the bookshop, a sheet of paper in her hand. She looked it over and asked the store clerk where she could find the new history books. The clerk showed her and she picked one up and went to the desk and payed for it before putting it in her bag and walking out into the street, hurrying back home.
The above paragraph would be acceptable.

The above sentance WOULD NOT BE ACCEPTABLE.
- 3rd person, past tense and length ~
All rping will be in 3rd person and be in clean text, not any *Went over to her* or -Went over to her- . Just plain text. He went over to her. See? That simple. Speach is "Hello." and thoughts are 'Hmmm' or just plain 'Hmmm'. Post length should be about 2-3 lines per post, but we'd prefer at least one paragraph. Also, we rp in past tense.
- Mature Rps ~
Yes, we do allow NC-17, but, we'd like to see a warning in the topic title, so that people don't click on it and see something something they really didn't want to. So do remember to put a warning.
- Boards and topics ~
