Not doing so will result in putting the RP your character is involved in at jeopardy of being temporarily locked down until you do. 04 Any discussion pertinent to the RPs in this subforum belongs in The Loom Of Fates . Please keep random chatter at a minimum, too much will result in staff intervention. 05 Any member may submit a world for use within this subforum. Creating a character profile and RPing in these worlds is not a requirement. 06 All worlds that are created and submitted to The World Forge are connected via the Hub World . Please familiarize yourself with its rules and uses. 07 The sole purpose of the Hub Worlds Azure Council is a means for staff to intervene seamlessly into, without disrupting the flow of, the various RPs that occur in this subforum. 08 When starting up an RP in an approved world, you MUST link to the world's profile thread in the first post for a reference. 09 If your character is from an approved world that is in The World Forge , you MUST place a link to the world's thread in your character profile. 10 When utilizing various worlds in your RPs be it one you set up yourself or another you hop into, be sure to follow the rules for that particular world. Not doing so will result in a temporary lock down of the RP. 11 When you actually enter the 'Hub World' or any RP for that matter even if you've been there before, you MUST introduce your character and link to their profile. When your character leaves the 'Hub World' you MUST post letting everyone know they are leaving along with linking to the RP in which your character will be traveling into. 12 When you leave an RP to enter the 'Hub World' , you MUST mention that your character is exiting in the RP you are currently posting to. 13 Any member may submit a character profile within this subforum. Creating a world for RP use is not a requirement. 14 When creating characters, please do not make them all-powerful. And remember that the RPs in this subforum are similar to open roleplays. That said, character death is always a possibility, though its recommended you communicate with others if you want to avoid such outcomes with your character, etc. 15 Every RP in this subforum is allowed ONE OOC Chatter thread in The Loom Of Fates . Though having one isnt a requirement, it is indeed encouraged. If more than one thread appears, they will all be merged without warning. 16 All RPs in this subforum will be considered an open roleplay. And all open roleplays in this subforum have the chance of connecting to each other in some way. 17 No flaming or god-modding is allowed anywhere within this subforum. Also spamming any thread is a definite no. Doing so will first result in a verbal warning. If the warning is ignored or behavior persists, harsher consequences will ensue. 18 RPs that have 1000 posts or more are eligible to have child forums associated with it. Please discuss this with a sectional mod so as to determine if such a thing is truly needed. If it is, they will be added accordingly. Likewise, any PS World RP requiring multiple threads see rules 8-10 for Group RPs , if deemed appropriate, may be eligible for a child forum. 19 RPs that have no activity for more than 3 months will be deemed inactive and thus locked down. If interest arises once again, please mention it in the appropriate Interest thread andor PM a Sectional Mod about unlocking it for you. 20 If any disputes occur, please try to quietly resolve it away from the boards.
