Being Other People: Player ExpectationsMost of these are guidelines and tips to help you during your game play at Fandom High. Keeping Traffic Down: If there's already a post for a particular location (eg. the second floor common room or the Perk), start a new thread in that post for your purposes rather than starting a new post. Just label it with where exactly you are and when to keep things clear. Formatting: LiveJournal has a habit of making threads stretch off the page. To avoid this, start a new thread so people can follow along easier. OOC comments in IC threads: Try to keep OOC comments to a minimum in IC threads. If need be, just start a new thread dedicated for OOC comments so those involved can keep track easier. Slow-Play: Due to the international nature of the game, slow-playing scenes is allowed to a degree. Get it done ASAP and avoid it wherever possible. Emergencies and time zone clashes are reasons for slow-playing. Just because you feel like it isn't a good enough reason. It messes with continuity, so avoid it wherever possible. Not Work Safe: Do not post any adult situations (sex, drugs, violence) in the communities. Post them in your character journal under an LJ cut tag and label them as "NWS" (Not Work Safe). Folks can get into trouble for viewing questionable content at work. Don't get them in trouble. Absence: If you don't have time to play out a scene, neither does your character. Don't start things you can't finish. Make sure everything you're involved in gets sorted out properly, even if you have to slow play it. Why? Continuity. Headache. Etc. Deleting Threads/Comments: Deleting completed threads/logs is
a big no-no without admin permission. It screws with continuity. Headache.
Please don't do it. Deleting comments in a thread in progress should
only be done if all players involved have given their permission and
should only be done in case of accidental godmodding or mistakes that
need to be corrected. Otherwise? Please don't do it.
