These are rules for when you are roleplaying. If I forget anything you think is important, please let me know:
1. No controlling another person's character. Even if the other person is okay with it, I really don't approve of it. (Also called 'godmodding')
2. No giving your character supernatural powers, unless its approved by the staff and/or its part of the plot.
3. When roleplaying a battle or fight, you must give your opponent the oppurtunity to respond.
I.E.,
Wrong Way: Fireheart sprang at Tigerclaw with his claws unsheathed and striked Tigerclaw's belly.
(What's wrong about this is that you're not giving Tigerclaw a chance to respond to Fireheart coming at him. What if Tigerclaw's roleplayer wanted to make it so that he defended himself instead of being scratched?)
Right Way: Fireheart sprang at Tigerclaw with his claws unsheathed, and hoped he had taken him by surprise.
(Now, when Tigerclaw replies to the roleplay, his roleplayer may respond.)
4. If its necassary to have two of the cats you roleplay in the same roleplay at the same time, fine. But please refrain from this whenever necassary, it gets alittle confusing.
5. Please try to make your roleplays at least a paragraph long. I know there are times when that is difficult sometimes, but don't get lazy!
6. Your bio must be accepted before roleplaying.
7. Your cat cannot be two places at once.
8. Please do not roleplay mating...graphically. You are probably mature enough to know limits, before it turns inappropiate.
I think that's all, but sometimes some slip my mind, so if you think of anything that could be important, do tell please!
