Acceptable Use Policy

By applying to this game, you are agreeing to the Acceptable User Policy, as well as the other policy documents.
==Acceptable Use Policy==
1) I am 18 years old or older. No players on this game can be younger OOCly than 18 years of age.
2) I understand that any characters that are under the age of 15 (whether literally or figuratively) are not playable, and applications for such characters I understand will be denied on the grounds of them being ‘closed due to age’.
3) I understand that this is a consent based game, and I will respect my fellow players. However, ICA=ICC (In Character Actions equals In Character Consequences) applies. I understand that consent does not mean avoiding consequences, and that if I am found to be doing so, staff may implement IC consequences, and the ‘consent shield’ won’t be an option at that point, so it behooves me to take my consequences within the storyline and not where they have to be inflicted.
4) I understand that if there is an issue or disagreement with a fellow player, or even a staffer, that cannot be resolved between ourselves that I will go to staff and request assistance in finding a solution.
5) I agree to act like a rational adult and not a spoiled five-year-old who isn’t getting my way.
6) I understand that mature themes can and will happen on this game and may include themes that are uncomfortable for some players. However, participation in these is optional, and it is up to me to express if I am not willing to participate and opt out, or off-screen these topics as necessary to the storyline. 
7) I understand that this game is inspired by the comics, but is an entirely adapted timeline, and thus not exactly like Earth-616, New Earth, or any current alternate universe canonically. I will be true to the core of the character I apply, and I will not be expecting every single character to be exactly to canon.
8) I will abide by Wheaton’s Law: don’t be a dick. I understand that I should respect fellow players and staff not only within roleplay, but also as fellow human beings. Bullying and harassment of any nature is not acceptable and will not be tolerated. Targeting players due to ethnicity, culture, sexuality, or religion will not be tolerated. Players are to respect the privacy and opinions of other players. If I cannot get along with someone, I will be polite. If I can’t be polite, I will ignore them.
9) Malicious actions against the game are unacceptable. It will result in an automatic, permanent site ban. I agree not to mess up the wiki, or try hacking the back end of the game itself, or messing with the softcode.
10) I will not install any softcoded ‘programs’ onto the game without clearing them through staff.
