rules

The RPG Organization is a community of multiple fan-fic RPG games.

Each scenario is supplied with a forum area, 1 admin-mail account, and web-space.

While these games do share a forum, they are independent of each other.

You do not have to be a gamer to join our forums.

Please read the following guidelines concerning our community.

You must be 16 or older to join this site.

Members do not have to be "gamers" to join our forums.

If you are joining for the games please visit the Registration Page and submit the completed form. Once your application has been received and you've registered with our forum, please post a message in the "Introductions" section yourself.

Gamers only: please create separate accounts with 1 for non-game activity and 1 for each character.

Gamers are expected to be self motivated with your postings. Keep consistent with the previous posts in the thread and do not allow yourself into a position where you are co-dependant on other players for your scenes.

Unless otherwise posted- all games require a minimum of 200 words per post. There are also a set number of 1,200 to 1,500 words (no more than 5 Word Doc pages) for joint posts- per every 2 players. Members are also expected to maintain a consistency with previous posts when participating in an existing thread. There is no minimum posting frequency.

A cross-venue area has been provided for gamers interested in writing a blended storyline. While it is recommended that what happens in cross-over stories have no effect on the groups main story-lines, discretion is left up to the Storytellers of each group involved.

The White Starr Lounge is an exception to this- what happens there stays there.

We do offer web-space and forums for independent groups. Therefore, should problems occur between members of separate groups which their perspective moderators are unable to resolve, the RPG Organization will provide an arbitrator to review the incident and call a ruling. The RPG Arbitrator serves as the house complaint department, covering issues such as forum and website functions, as well as cross group issues. Please remember to go to your group's complaint manager first. This is the person who will determine if an Arbitrator needs to be brought in.

If you choose to portray a vampire or changeling (werewolf, werecat, etc) send an e-mail request to admin@therpg.org to receive a copy of the appropriate character sheet. We make use of character concepts from White-Wolf Publishing.

NOTE:

White Wolf owns the copyrights on all characters based on their character concepts.

These characters will remain within the RPG Organization should you choose leave or be asked to do so.

The RPG Organization is an interactive forum community. We strive for a peaceful and enjoyable environment. Harassment of other members will not be tolerated. This out of character behavior includes: deliberate intimidation, domination over another member, bully behavior, name calling, aggressive and insulting words, belittling, humiliating, degrading, sexual or other slanderous treatment that would cause a member to feel fearful, threatened, unwelcome, or uncomfortable within our environment. If evidence is provided to substantiate complaints against these types of behavior and an investigation proves them to be valid, the accused will have their membership terminated.

Opinions expressed in the general forums are that of the individual poster and do not necessarily agree with the views of the administration or other members.
