BASIC FORUM RULES

[☆ F ☆]

The community of NRP has been created with the intent for writers and fans of the NARUTO universe to come together and share their passion for their hobby in an entertaining and fun way. However, there will be instances where this is not always the case - we are just human, after all! In the end, we are all here to role-play and have fun, not yell at people and get them in trouble.This does not mean people are welcome to come here and disrupt the peace, either. As such, we've listed a few basic rules of conduct that will ensure to make your time, and that of your fellow peers, as enjoyable here as possible.

• Follow the Proboards TOS! This is the most obvious rule. What doesn't fly with them clearly doesn't fly with us.
• This board can range from PG-13 to R at times, though most writing here is done in a tasteful and artistic way. Seeing any other kind of material will force us to ask you to tone-down your writing style, or even remove it altogether.
• Don't feed the troll! Avoid flaming, baiting, spamming, harassment, racism, etc. This is simple; don't do it. Be cool with everyone, or else we won't be with you.
• No illegal activity. Threatening people in real-life, alluding to terrible things, etc.
• No impersonation. It's ok to try to pretend to be fictitious characters or whatnot, but when you start imitating other members in order to hurt them, then we have a problem.

On top of the general rules of conduct for the forum, there are a few general In-Character regulations all players must be made aware about:

• There is a thread limit. Each accepted character may only exist, in terms of role-play, within a single country at any given time. Within this country, the user may have up to 3 active threads running.
• Death is conditional! Inside your own village - except in the event that your village is under attack by an enemy nation - characters are Not Death Enabled, and can engage in combat without worry for their characters safety. EVERYWHERE else that you roleplay, just like in the animanga itself, is Death Enabled. The world is a dangerous place.
• No Canon! Though NRP follows the world of NARUTO closely, as well as the events that transpired during the birth of chakra and ninjutsu, as well as some ninja villages and whatnot, the actual forum story-line takes place in an alternate version of said universe. As such, all characters made must be original, and cannot relate to any characters from the manga and anime in any way.
• Multiple characters are O.K. Just remember one account equals one character.
• ...however, you can't RP with yourself! Even with multiple accounts, we prefer you don't role-play with yourself.
• Avoid Godmodding and Metagaming. This is especially important since we provide a lot of IC and OOC information across the forum. We'll be clear to label what is what, so make sure you do too!
• And finally, the honor system. When it comes to updating your character, though you need to wait for staff to approve sales, it is up to you to ultimately update your own profile. We trust everyone, but if suspicions arise, be prepare to provide links as proof of earnings/purchases!
