RULES
1)IC =/= OC. Keep them separate. Just because your character doesn’t get along with another character doesn’t mean you should carry this over to the player as well. If you have a problem, put on your big kid undies and try to work it out. If things have reached a stalemate, contact the mods and we’ll see what we can do.
2)Don’t godmod. You’re here to play your character not someone else’s. Keep it that way. Same goes for infomodding. If your character doesn’t know it but you do, make sure it stays that way unless there is an in-game thread or log where the character obtains said knowledge. Otherwise, they don't get to know about it.
3)Keep your character in character. Characters will grow, learn, and be thrown into situations they haven’t encountered before. This doesn’t mean that they can act willy nilly and contrary to how they would normally react. Make sure their actions are reflective of their app personality!
4)Don’t Character Squat. You will be expected to pass a monthly activity check. Keep your characters active and involved if you claim them here, or maybe it's time to let them go.
5)No Playercest. That means no threading with yourself with different character journals.
6)Reflecting the rule above, you may only apply for a maximum of two characters from the same canon. And at that, only if the two characters in question are ones who would not normally interact in their canon. Example 1: Apping both Naruto and Sasuke = Not Allowed.
Example 2: Apping Sasuke and Kushina = Allowed.
If you have any questions or a good argument for two characters from the same canon, ask the mod team.
7)Label all posts accordingly. Make sure all posts have appropriate warnings, cuts, and ratings. Anything higher than R must be locked. Err on the side of caution when rating entries.

8) FIREBULLETS. Hey lookit that: you found an app keyword! If you are a *first-time applicant*, please remember to include the word 'firebullets' somewhere in your application, or it will not be accepted! If you already have a character here and are apping an additional character, you do not need to include the app keywords.
9) Chats. We have an AIM chatroom called left4rp.a.Chat Guidelinesi.Respect your fellow players. Don't be rude or disrespectful. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
ii.Don't post links to anything that could be considered to be a trigger.
iii.Try not to dominate chat with closed logs or your character. Keep things open and involved for everyone if you are going to discuss things in length.
iv. HAVE FUN. Chats are a great way to get to know your fellow players and develop CR!
