When you create a new roleplaying thread you have special rules that you have to take into account. These rules are listed below. Also make sure that you follow the rules stated in the Forum rules.[/b]
These rules also apply to administrators. If you think one administrator disobeys them, contact another.
Opinions and suggestions to these rules should be posted in the Suggestions forum. Rules are subject to change. Any and all changes will be reported in the Announcement forum.
For practical and creative information on how you roleplay, go here.
All roleplays should take place during the year 2062 for now. If you want your thread to take place before or after this year, contact and administrator through PM.
The first post, or the title, should be marked with the date of the roleplay in-game as follows: DD [Month] YYYY (ex. 2th of January, 2062). Please observe that each roleplaying thread can only take place during one day.
[¤] Observe the Timeline.
When you create a new thread, keep an eye on the Timeline. This is to bring structure; which characters has gotten to know each other? What happenings has taken place? The Timeline is the reason for why the date markings of the threads is so important and why it's specified in the forum rules.
If you refer to a specific week day on a specific date, please use this site to decide which week day it is.
To have your thread put into the Timeline, send a PM to Alice that contains the following: date, place, participants (the names of the characters) and a short description about one or two lines that sums up the important happenings of the roleplay.
[¤] The thread should be created in the correct forum.
Your thread should be placed in the roleplaying forum where your character is when you finish up your first post. If you, for example, start off in The Wasteland but the character thinks back on it's youthful days in Shangrila, the roleplaying thread should be placed in The Wasteland. If you're playing out a travel between Shangrila and The Wasteland, place the thread in the The Wasteland forum. If your character just starts a travel, place the thread in the forum where your character currently is located.
[¤] A finished thread is locked.
When you and your fellow roleplayers decides that a thread is finished, take contact with an admin who will then proceed to lock your thread with a confirmation that it's finished.

If something doesn't feel good...
If you for some reason feel that the thread you are participating in doesn't feel good, because someone has broken the Roleplaying Etiquette, or for another reason, don't hesitate to contact an administrator. This also applies if you find a roleplay that doesn't follow the rules.[/blockquote]
