~Extra Rules Concerning RP and Such~
1. Do not post in Dead Topics at all, unless you are already in it and you plan to revive it and finish it. If no one is there anymore, do not post in it.
2. Do not Meta-game. This means using information gained OOC being used IC. This means People's techniques, Who are in what group, etc.
Although telling when someone meta-games someones technique, people typically aren't able to know what a technique does until it's been activated.
As for everything else, I suggest you separate your knowledge from what your character knows so you don't get confused at all.
3. Follow the Posting Order of a topic. Unless someone has become inactive, you cannot post in the wrong order.
For example: Person 1 posts, Person 2 posts, Person 3 posts. It should continue this way for the rest of the topic.
The reason for this rule is so it doesn't turn into this: Person 1 posts, Person 2 posts, Person 3 posts. Person 1 posts, Person 3 posts, Person 2 posts, Person 3 posts. This would make it unfair to Persons 1 & 2 because Person 3 is getting more actions.
4. Do not use Unapproved Techniques/Weapons/Items/etc in an active topic. If you get a Technique/weapon or anything else gained through approvals or buying, which means basically anything, you cannot use it until you go to a topic which has a topic start time of AFTER you got whatever it is. This goes along with the meta-gaming rule that restricts character information.
5. To use an item in a Topic, you must have it: Made, Appraised, Bought, Have Ryo Deducted, and Finally, Added to your item list. If it's not in your list and you use it, you may either be disqualified in what you were doing, ignored, or even punished by a Mod/Admin. If you don't have it in your list and you need it to be, ask an Admin or Mod to add it for you. Only after that may you actually use it.
6. Topic Titles are not to be changed. This excludes from Open to Private since we won't know when certain things in RP will change. This also means that when a title says all of whom are to be in a topic, those are the only ones allowed. Despite the Creator of the topic may want more people, this will not be allowed. Please keep this rule in mind, it is for the benefit of all and without it, the topic would contradict who's in it. After all, you wouldn't want someone barging in your Private Topic or anything like that. This rule is not debatable.
7. Post your Techniques either in a spoiler or code after your RP. This means at the bottom of your post. For example, here's the code for a spoiler tag
