WELCOME!
Welcome to the 'Through' World! When teenagers and young adults are suddenly sucked through a vortex while nobody is looking,
things might become a bit too weird! Some will break, some will disappear and some will completely light up! Still, they can have a merry time
with the each other and make it out of this strange place! Go back home! Well, 'home', whatever it might be, isn't remembered by our ten 'heroes'.
-> We allow IN CHARACTER harassment, cursing, sexism, any form of discrimination, and light sexual content (this is no porn rpg, which means also no describing how things are. You'll see more about this rule ahead). If you don't feel like you can deal with mature contents, please, don't join or complain.
-> We DO NOT ALLOW YOU TO OFFEND, FIGHT, FLAME, DISCRIMINATE or hurt in any form our members. Character is one thing, MEMBER is another one.
Posting Rules
-> The use of the Spell Check button is mandatory. Also, reviewing your posts is highly suggested, as the spell check might not always work to get things right!
-> You have to post a minimum of two medium sized paragraphs and a maximum of four medium sized ones for each post. I don't expect you to write me a bible each time, just try to use all your character's senses and thoughts to give the other players something to work with.
-> You have to make at least one in character post every week. If you are going to be absent for a week or two, you should post up an Out of Character thread explaining so. If you are leaving for more than 14 days, your position might be replaced. So only join if you are active.
-> Do not colorize your posts. You can bold, italicize, underline and strike, but no coloring. And also use quotation marks every time your character speaks. Don't forget it!
-> Always write on the 3rd person form.
In Character Rules
-> Each time the characters advance in the plot, a new board will appear. Each board has a thread called "Through and Out", which is the first one your should post, and where you will find the OOC guidelines. After you post there, you may leave that thread to other ones.
-> Your character can only be in ONE THREAD AT A TIME. Only when you finish the thread you're in, you can go to another one. Always try to give continuity, and the times doesn't pass as fast as in regular rpgs.
-> You can join any thread you want if you're not in any. There's no such thing as a "reserved" thread: You all start out at the "Through and Out" thread of a board and, in character, plan out what you're going to do with the other characters. You only join a new thread when you leave, and people can follow you as they wish. They can also interfere. Maybe if your character asks theirs politely to leave, they will. Maybe you'll have to fight. Maybe the one to leave will be you.
-> Always follow a continuity in your posts and thread. When your character leaves a thread, where do they go? What do they do? As I said, this is not a regular-timeline RPG. Here continuity is a must.
-> You can always chat, chill out, do nothing, freak out, cry, get closer to other characters... But this RPG has a great plot and each character is a canon in it. So do try to help out with the objectives given in every phases/chapter of this history you are all building together!
