Whats Expected {A Must-Read}

[ExoticSilver77]

Okay. Due to the recent events, I am setting up a help page for new users who must read this to understand what is expected. I have grown irritated that I am being ignored when I tell people, and this is why I am mad. Very few new users follow these basic rules of roleplaying.
Whoever has a site, feel free to use this guide, but tell me before doing so.

Chatspeak While Roleplaying

Chatspeak is immature. It is strictly prohibited on this site except for the occassional 'BRB' (Be Right Back) or "G2G (Got to Go).

Chatspeak mixed in with roleplaying is a rather crude way to talk. I understand people have less time to do things, but it is annoying to read.

The Example

"Ur gunna pay for that!" Screamed Leafheart, leaping at Lightstar. "No, u r gunna pay!" Lightstar screamed back."R U Scared of me?" Leafheart laughed.

See how annoying this was to read? Yes, This is why these things are not allowed. We want to encourage a nice, fair, and fun roleplaying time on this site.


Capitilization, Exclaimation and Question Marks

The one other thing that is frustrating. Captiliazation, Explaimation and Question marks. It makes things annoying, hard and rather upsetting to read, not to mention the other way to prove you are immature while roleplaying.


A Fully Capped Post:

LEAFHEART POUNCED AT KNIIGHTSKY, SCRATCHING AT HIM. "yOU WANNA PIECE O' ME?"

No Capitilazation:

leafheart pounced at knightsky, scratching him. "you wanna piece o' me?"

Exclaimation and Question Marks

Leafheart pounced at Knightsky, scratching him. "You wanna piece o' me???!!!!!! Bring it!!!!!!!"

See how annoying those were? This is all how you should not act on this website. I do not scream at people for the occcasional mistaken chatpseak thrown into OOC, but if it is in your roleplaying post, beware.
