Now, I don't like doing these things, I really don't, but it's about time I did.
It's about time I addressed this, because recently we have had an instance of a confrontation which has led me to post this. I am going to address three rules, three simple rules that everyone should have read already.
Respect
Being respectful of other's opinions is necessary, even though they have a different opinion than you, doesn't mean that you have the authority to bash on them. We have no tolerance toward entitled, disrespectful people.
IC and OOC
Keep IC role play drama out of the OOC chats.
Inappropriate RP Subject
Take r-rated topics to party or whisper.
You guys know those three, don't you? I hope so.
I never like writing these, but it has gotten to a point where I am tired of tapping people gently on the wrist, and people still turn the cheek and do the same thing. Recent events has led me to say this:
1. I do not wish to control what you do via RP, but if you are talking about fucking someone else's character, having an orgy, sucking someone's dick, etc. You take it to party or whisper from now on. This has become a custom thing where people go off on a tangent about sex in group chat between their characters. I do not care if you are joking around. This is an every day thing, and people are uncomfortable. I'm uncomfortable. I'm asking you to tone down the sexual talk in group chat.
2. If you have IC drama with someone, or you are taking IC matters and making them OOC problems, you need to take a step back and evaluate things. If you have an issue with something, come talk to staff. Do not bring your hostility or problems in a public chat, and do not cause issues with other members. Keep it to yourself, or confront staff about your issues and we will try and resolve it.
3. Respect. I am big on respect. The description that is written in the rules doesn't even cover the expanse I am trying to portray. If you have an issue with someone, do not give them attitude. If someone has an issue with you, don't act hostile or give an attitude back. Did you know the quickest way an argument starts is due to either side not remaining civil rather than finding an easy solution to the problem? If you have a problem, come to staff.
I guess what I'm trying to say is,
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH SOMEONE, SOMETHING, OR ANYTHING AT ALL.
COME. TO. STAFF.
We are here for a reason guys, I can't emphasize this enough. This is how arguments start and rather than confronting staff about an issue, people would rather continue the argument and make a bigger mess than usual. I am tired of tapping people on the wrist, I am tired of having this become a chore for me. You would not believe the amount of times I have held my tongue voluntarily in order to keep someone happy, and they end up pushing me around. I've had groups do this to me, other members try and find loopholes through the rules, people take IC things to OOC, and I am not here to relay the rules to you.
You should have read the rules, understood them, but it seems I have to keep asking, and now there is an upset Tulonasigo. I don't want to have to kick or ban anyone, nor do I want to hand out strikes. I have been so lenient with this group due to it being an open community, but now I'm just over it. If you don't read the rules, and you don't abide by the rules, you get a strike depending on severity. The rules are right here for your convenience, just in case you need to read them again. I will be updating them soon to cover a more blunt basis so I don't have to have people manipulating the rules on me and finding loopholes. risenrevolution.proboards.com/thread/5/regulations
Anyways,
I hope you all understand this. I am in no way targeting this at anyone, but this has gotten out of hand. For the past, present, and the future members, this applies to everyone, not just a specific set of people. I hate having to do this, but I was left with no choice. I apologize.
Thank you for reading.
