RULES
(STOP! IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE: Hey! Before you continue reading the rules, I want you to understand that these rules can change or be updated at ANY given time. It's imperative that you keep up to date with them so you know what's going on. Alright, side note over!)
---
Rules here are very important at Tekken Role Play it is imperative that all members follow the rules allotted, if not, disciplinary actions will be taken. If rules are continually broken, your account WILL be suspended. The last resort will be banning.
As the Admin, I do NOT want to ban anyone, I just want members to have fun and enjoy their stay here, so please make an effort to abide by the rules.
THE BASICS:
1.) Alright, first rule here is to be kind and courteous around each other. I don't want any internet trolls lurking around on the forum (*Squints* You know who you are! >.>) My objective here is to create a place where people can relax and write about characters kicking each other butts. Simple stuff. If you can't abide by that then please find some other site to go to.
2.) Here, we don't have much of a post length just make as descriptive as HUMANLY POSSIBLE. No one wants to read a novel post(Unless you're into that) or a one liner... because those are boring, let's just be real about that. XD
3.) Please be mindful, and I'll reiterate this later on in this post. THIS IS A FIGHTING ROLEPLAY. Please allow your character to take damage, it's a must here. Every character has to take some form of damage, and not absorb it like some God. I'll touch on that in a bit too.
4.) If you don't actually play Tekken on Console, or haven't been able to keep up due to the costs of the game and consoles, we welcome you anyways! However, we must ask you do your homework, and look into the Tekken lore as this is a Tekken RP. [Added by Anna Williams on 10/30/18]
Alright, now that the basics are down, we can get into the fun stuff! ^^
ROLEPLAY RULES:
1.) Okay, we all know characters can't teleport right? So with that being said, your character can only be in ONE THREAD at a single given time in CANON PLOT. In AU/OOC, this is perfectly fine being that it doesn't retain to anything canon!
> An example of this would be if you and a friend were Roleplaying in one thread, and another member comes online and wants to Roleplay with you. Your character CANNOT leave the thread unless you post an exit reply. Once your character has successfully and ENTIRELY left the thread, you can Roleplay among others again.
2.) Okay, this one is a biggie. Absolutely, NO TOLERANCE FOR GODMODDING. Why? Because it's annoying, everyone hates it AND it's just for people who want to ruin others joy so please let's just avoid doing that. Please do not tell anyone how to RP their characters either. Suggestions may be offered, but disrespect is a no no! [Updated by Anna Williams on 10/30/18]
3.) Just because I feel like I have to reiterate this again, PLEASE TAKE DAMAGE. I understand that people become attached to their characters, original and canon but it makes things run better if characters take damage.
4.) Speaking of damage. What do I mean when I say damage? I mean, cuts, scrapes, bruises, breaking appendages, things that although sound painful (in which case they are) brings me to my next topic: GORE.
> Being descriptive in your posts is something that we recommend here BUT when it comes to being overly excessive and/or over the top descriptions of violence, we label that GORE here. In simple terms, if your post contains material of that you would see in something like Mortal Kombat, it's DEFINITELY NOT recommended here. This is a fighting tournament Roleplay where the characters LIVE after their altercations. Please be mindful of that.
5.) In this particular Roleplay, we allow suggestive/ sexual related material. With that being said, there are some regulations that accompany this as well.
> When it comes to sexual or suggestive themes on this site, we don't mind them at all but just to be mindful of others. If it seems inappropriate to you, then it's most likely inappropriate to someone else as well. Keep in mind, that we DO NOT ALLOW SUGGESTIVE THEMES THAT INVOLVE RAPE OR ANYTHING THAT SEEMS FORCED UPON. Being that is a sensitive subject for most people.
> If you are posting with someone in a suggestive matter, then we recommend that you and whoever you are Roleplaying with use either the WHISPER or SPOILER tag located on the end of the buttons tab. These help to conceal your posts so that everyone has their own peace of mind.
-WHISPER-Shhh button
- Spoiler- Smiley button with finger over face.
CHARACTER REGISTRATION RULES:
You can have a total of 6 characters! Why six? Because I like even numbers and even numbers mean fair chances in my opinion. With these slots, there are a few rules to follow:
1.) You are only allowed to have 3 canon characters in your possession. If you have more than 3, then you will be required to drop one of them.
2.) There is no limit for Original Characters. We only ask that whatever Main OCs you have, you use. If they are not regular characters, they will be classified as Side Characters.
3.) You can have as many side characters as you choose as they do not take up space on your character slots.
4.) If you are inactive with your character then it will be moved back to the available canon list. (SIDE NOTE: Please note that with this process, we will occasionally PM(Private Message) you about the absence of use from your registered character. We will NOT abruptly take your character away from you without letting you know or messaging you first.)
I believe that's all for the rules of the forum, if you have any questions or concerns that need to be addressed please don't hesitate to ask me!
