The golden rule of The Board, Respect all Members. Respect yourself, your peers, and the staff. There may be times when someone posts something you disagree with or think is stupid, but that is no reason to start an argument. Also, as a member you should respect that the members from this forum are subject to the many diverse situations
It is a given that from time to time people will rub each other and an argument will break out. For the sake of other members, it is asked that arguments are kept as privately as possible, with minimal involvement from outside parties.[Excluding Staff] If the issue is RPing related, a staff member with help sort it out and if the issue is a personal matter it is hoped that it can be sorted out and the members can go back to RPing peacefully.
The Members are what make any great RP site thrive. As a member of the site, it is primarily expected that once you join you will remain active. So, what is considered 'active'? That you create a character and Role Play at least twice a week. Posting in Off-RPG areas does not mean you are active. It only means you're here to chat and not role play, something that this site is not based off of.
In a larger sense, as a member, you are expected to obey staff decisions and the rules. However we recognize that the staff is human and as such, they do not know everything and they do make mistakes. If you disagree with a Moderator/Admin on a decision based on your application then you should politely discuss the issue with said Moderator/Admin. If the issue become out of hand a higher ranking staff member may step in and make a verdict regarding the issue in question.
Also note that the Staff are people and just like everyone else, they have school, work, family, friends, relationships as well. And as a result, they may not be able to check your application right away due to different issues, while this does mean it may take longer for your application to be looked over, it does not mean you may constantly ask and/or bug the staff to check your application, this includes via the chatbox or PM. In order to assure your application is checked, you may bump it every 24 hours and if the application is not checked within 5 or more days you may ask or PM a staff member to look it over.
