+———————————————————————+ “Sails and Tails” rules: 1. Respect and Inclusivity: Treat all participants with respect, both in and out of character. Avoid offensive language, discriminatory remarks, or any behavior that may make others uncomfortable. 2. Consent and Communication: Prioritize consent in all interactions. If unsure, ask for permission before involving others in your role-play scenarios. Use clear communication to distinguish between in-character (IC) and out-of-character (OOC) discussions. Use brackets or other markers to indicate when you are speaking OOC. 3. No Harassment or Bullying: Do not engage in any form of harassment or bullying, whether it's in character or out of character. If someone expresses discomfort with a particular scenario or role-play direction, respect their feelings and adjust accordingly. 4. Character Development: Allow each participant to develop their character without interference. Avoid forcing others into specific roles or storylines without their consent. Respect the background and personality that each participant has chosen for their character. 5. Moderation of Conflict: Handle conflicts or disagreements in a civilized manner, both in character and out of character. If a dispute arises, involve moderators or administrators to help mediate and find a resolution. 6. Maintain a PG-13 Environment: Keep the role play suitable for a general audience. Avoid explicit or overly mature content, and be mindful of the sensitivities of all participants. Inclusivity of Newcomers: Welcome new participants and help them integrate into the role play. Avoid exclusive groups or cliques that may make newcomers feel unwelcome. 7. Consistency with Setting: Adhere to the established setting and lore of the Pirate role play. Avoid introducing elements that could disrupt the overall narrative or immersion for other participants. 8. Active Participation: Strive to actively engage with the storyline and other participants. Inactivity for an extended period without prior notice may lead to adjustments made by the admins.
