Post Roleplay Rules & Instructions

Before you post in the Roleplay section please read the following

Types of Roleplay
There are three different types of roleplay, Open, Private, and Recruit with subcategories of Script and Paragraph.
An Open roleplay is basically a roleplay that anyone can join without any kind of character submission. Its basically a free for all with a plot that makes itself up as it goes along! These type of roleplays can be particularly interesting. A Private roleplay means you have to be invited before you can join, so you must not post in these unless any of the people who are part of the roleplay invite you. A Recruit roleplay means that you have to submit a character beforehand, but after that its basically an open Roleplay maybe with a few extra rules.
The difference between a Script roleplay and a Paragraph roleplay is self explanatory. A script is basically when you put your characters name behind commas and explain an action / a speech. A paragraph is where you write a paragraph or less describing what is happening as it would in a story.

Examples:
Quote:
Script
Swiftwind: *runs towards tree* No! You shouldn't be leaping from that height! *stops at the base* There is plenty other prey in the forest, just let that sparrow go!

Paragraph
Swiftwind sprinted towards the tree, leaning particularly over the edge of the cliff. "No!" she screamed "You shouldn't be leaping from that height!" She stopped as she approached the tree, seeing Wrenpaw, her apprentice, slowly prying towards the plump sparrow. "There is plenty of other prey in the forest, just let that sparrow go!" she pleaded.
When creating or submitting in a roleplay you must consider what type of roleplay it is, before you confuse people.
Creating a Private roleplay required permission from an admin, so if you wish to create a private roleplay just send a private message to any staff member stating who you want in it and what it is about etc. Remember that regular rules apply in these threads since everyone can still view them and read their stories.

Rules
1. You must have at least 10 words when you post.
2. When in a Script roleplay don't just put an action on its own, and if you can don't just put speech either. It will make the roleplay boring if you do so. *
3. Do not create your own Private roleplay without the permission of an admin first.
4. Describe the roleplay as best you can when you create one, don't just put 'Enjoy' or something like that.
5. No flaming a roleplay.
6. Follow the instructions stated at the beginning of the roleplay, some of the users may have extra rules in their roleplays.

* Examples of bad posts
Quote:
*flies around*
Reason: Less than 10 words, an action on its own, no name at beginning of script post.

Bob: *sigh* This is a ridiculous scenario :I
Reason: Less than 10 words, flaming
If you do not follow these rules you will be infracted depending on the number of offences, first times will just end with a warning.
