General RPG Former Rules and Regulations

[Tyvek]

Hey Look what I found on My Computer!!!! Remember these

First there were these...

1. Only one [RPG] per member. If you want to start a different [RPG], please PM a RPG.Mod to have your old [RPG] locked.

2. No extra rooms allowed like "Quarters," "Briefing Rooms," and "Sick Bays" that link into the main [RPG] topic thread.

3. Messages to other ships, shall be posted on 'The Message Board'.

4. Making a [RPG] does not mean you get to have your [RPG] on the front page. We (GRPG MODS) will only recommend a RPG with 15,000 post, for a front page position, there is nothing keeping the RPG creator from asking Morphy Him/Herself to put the RPG on the Front Page, But Doing so means that you do not have the GRPG Mods backing you, but Morphy will ultimately decide if your RPG belongs on the front page.

5. RPG.Mods are allowed to interupt game play on a ship if it has complaints or spam.

6. No cursing, bad mouthing, and no 'adult only' content. There are many young members on this forum. No sexually related scenes of any kind allowed. (This includes Kissing described in graphic Detail)

7. Do not triple posts. Say everything in one post if possible.

8. Do not repost the positions available over and over. This makes it harder to moderate. If someone wants to see the available positions they can go to the front page. Reposting may result in a deletion of the repost.

9. PM the RPG.Mods about any complaints that you may have, or about any spam you may have seen. Please include a link to the page.

10. Try not to interrupt a [RPG] by asking to join in the middle. It will be easier to just PM the original [RPG] starter in charge, any post in the middle of an RPG asking to join may be considered a SPAM, so please refrain from doing this.

11. Start all approved [RPG]s with brackets around "RPG", like: [RPG]. This topic indicator should be at the start of the topic, and ONLY the start.

12. No spamming of topics ... ie. NO ALL CAPS in the topic.

13.The RPGs with more than 2,000 post (not pages) will be stickied. If a mod notices that a stickied RPG is not being used often it will be unstickied. The mods reserve the right to unsticky any RPG for violations to the rules, or rufuse sticking for rule violations (RPG's may also be stickied for seperating purposes only. RPGS may be seperated if unique circumstances require it's speration, such as an outside (Not GRPG Mod) mod is moderationg it. ).

14. A user is not allowed to make and have locked more than 6 rpgs a month or else there privilages to have a rpg will be revoked

15. Inactive members (inactive members are players who have not RPGed in two (2) weeks) of RPGs should be notified by the RPG creator and their name color coded accordingly, after a response or lack of a response the inactive person MUST be removed to from the list to allow space for other people join.
Color Code to be used for inactive members (Please use this in ALL RPGs)
GREEN= Posts regularly and/or new person.
YELLOW= Posts semi-regularly.
RED= Does not post at all or after if user has not posted for one (1) week, will get remove from the RPG if red after being red for one (1) week.
BLUE= Is excused from posting, because of vacation etc....... (Please PM the owner if you need to be BLUE)

For those of you unsure of the current rules and policys Go Here:

Rule 1: Please ask permission from a GRPG mod before starting an RPG. Please plase the name of the mod that approved your RPG in bold at the top of your RPG's front page. AAlso if your RPG is locked for not being approved, the mod that locked it can not approve it.

1a Mod Clause: Rule one does not apply to mods, If a mod opens an RPG and it gets out ofhand, and the mod does not handle it properly, the mod will be reported to morphy and he will determine the approiate punishment for the mod in question.


For More Information Ask The RPG.Mods OR Go to The RPG Q/A Room.
Thank You and Enjoy.

I remember these all to well. It was good that you bought this up.

[Josi Rockholt]

Wow,I remember those from waaaaay back. How many actually were followed completely and how many broken? Memories.

[Ronevick]

Damn...those are pretty old. Good times.

[Tyvek]

Trust me I remember them too... We cleaned up the RPG's
it went from wild to regulated in no time flat, and what we did survives today... thats why I feel special to know that something I did made a positive impact on this site.

[Curtis]

How true my Vulcan friend, how true.

I too, remember these from way back in the day, and it is good to see that much of what we did "survives" today (except for the Adventurer-X, but that's a good thing...I think she was far to out of regulation with spammers and what not ).

[Seven of Nine]

Yes, Daddy

[Ziona]

Yay hijacking!!! /dance
