Uhm, these are the RULES FOR ROLEPLAY. This isn't an actual roleplay topic.

Oops my bad! :blink:

Yours Truly,

*.* Amelia

P.S. To whoever did that smiley with Jimmy's hair, HOW'D YOU DO THAT?????!!!!!!

[gabBy-gabBz^^]

She's just naughty... :lol:

How's it going everyone?

I know, I know, you can't even contain your excitement over the new Roleplaying forum. I feel ya.

But before you strap on your Limited Edition Ultralord mask and jump into position as Sheen Estevez, you should be aware of a few rules that go along with the AMAZING coolness of RPing. And if you think you already know the "unwritten" rules...well, these are the written ones, and it took me forever to write them, so you'd better read them. Who knows? You might learn something. Shocking, I know.

OK, so, here we go.

TOPIC SETUP <= READ THIS

-Topics will be arranged on basis of SETTING. For those of you who don't know what a setting is, I suggest you either repeat your basic literature class next year or go to the school board and demand your money back. The RP Setting must have something to do with the actual show. For example, a good one to choose would be "The Candy Bar".

-Topic Titles will read like this "RP: setting goes here". In the case of the Candy bar, the topic title would say "RP: The Candy Bar". Make sense?






-Setting cannot be repeated. You can create as many new settings as you want, but there can only be one "Candy Bar" RP going at any one given time. Mmkay? Do you get the whole "setting" concept? Basically, it's just a way to organize a buttload of different RPing sessions into categories that make sense. That way, one group of people can RP as the gang in Ms. Fowl's classroom, and another group entirely can ALSO be the gang and carry on a different RP at Shangri Llama.

ROLEPLAYING AS CHARACTERS

-The basic concept of RPing is this: You pretend to be your favorite character and do your best to sound and act like them. That means that you STAY IN CHARACTER. I know the tempation is just OVERWHELMING to spontaneously make Cindy and Jimmy start kissing right in the middle of an RP, but would this really happen in an episode? Stay true to the show and your character, or else GO AWAY.

-You can only be one character at a time in each setting. If you go on to the "Candy Bar RP" and there's already a Cindy in the Candy Bar, you CAN'T be Cindy unless that person quits and gives you permission to take over. Likewise, you can't sign on to an RP and play both Libby and Sheen. You can pick one or the other, but not both.

-Character assignment is based on a first come, first serve basis. If you're the first person in the "Candy Bar" RP to reply and say "I'm Jimmy", then you've got the job. All other subsequent claims to being Jimmy will be deleted by ME. However, if you're Jimmy at the Candy Bar, that doesn't automatically make you Jimmy everywhere else. There might be another Jimmy entirely on the "Shangri Llama RP".

AVAILABLE CHARACTERS

-You can be any character that has been on the show

-NO ORIGINAL CHARACTERS ALLOWED! Sorry, you can't RP as Sheen and Libby's kids or as yourself or as any other person who hasn't been mentioned or shown on the TV show. I may reconsider this rule and create a special RP just for OC's if everyone behaves and stays in character the rest of the time.

COMMON COURTESY

-I was gonna leave out the basic rules, but then I realized that if I don't spell everything out then INEVITABLY someone will do something stupid. Anyway, here we go:

-No flaming (Duh)

-No excessive swearing

-No dirty romance. This is NOT a porn site people JEEZ

SUMMARY (for those of us with ADHD LOL)

-Topics are organized by setting
-One RP for each setting
-One copy of each character per RP session
-One character per person per RP session (phew lots of "pers")
-Stay in character, and no OC's
-Nothing obscene...Behave yourself

__________________________________________

OK, I think that's pretty much it. I'm gonna start out a few generic RP's and then we'll see how it goes. If people can't manage to control themselves then big bad Moderator Mara might have to come out and delete the RP forum
Hopefully I won't have to do that. I like RPing too hee hee

OK, enjoy everyone, and thanks for reading the RIDICULOUSLY long rules!!

~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

I have a question.

Are you not allowed to leave the Candy Bar if the RP is "RP: Candy Bar" correct?

[Aaron]

Fair enough

(I<3RPing)

[JimmyxxCindy4EVER]

OMG, I absolutely ADORE it!!! You should read up on my RP; so, okay, it's rather long, but trust me, it's WORTH the read!! Just be sure to read carefully, so you don't miss critical details. Hope ya like it as much as I do, if not more! lol

Here it is! Just follow the links in the first post.

[Aaron]

Thanks, Em. I'll be sure to check it out.
