Hello everyone!
We are happy to have you be part of the website, and since we strive for a happy, relaxed, friendly and creative environment for everybody, please take a look at the following rules of The Nexus Rpf. Keep in mind that these rules apply to all members and cover the entire website. If you have any questions about them, please feel free to message any staff member. We’re happy to help out!
Rule No. 1: Do not attack, insult, or disrespect* other members. If you feel like you have been wronged in any way, message a staff member. Violations of this rule can result in a written warning and or a ban, depending on the severity of the insult. Comments on race, gender, or sexual orientation may result in harsher punishments. If you are upset, we encourage you to take a step back and cool off.
*This includes repeated unwarranted accusations made against fellow RPers without proof.
Rule No. 2: Do not spam post on forums. Double posts should only be posted when: (a) either a thread has been inactive for several days or (b) there is a clear separation and distinction between one post and the other.
Rule No. 3: Ban evasion is not allowed. In other words, do not use an alternate account to avoid the ban that has been given to you by the staff. This will result in a ban on your alternate account as well as a longer ban on your main account. If you ever receive a ban, just be patient!
Rule No. 4: Do not join the website to advertise products or services. Advertising any business ventures, as well as attempting to attract members to another website, is forbidden and punishable by the staff. This does not mean that you can’t express your preferences in conversation.
Rule No. 5: Do not post or link any inappropriate or explicit material on the website. We remind you that there are members from a wide range of ages, so we must be careful what material is posted here. Forbidden content includes all pornography, and may include powerful images, such as those of heavy gore, horror, and nudity. When writing about intimacy, it is encouraged to use the “fade to black” concept. Imply and don’t over-describe! If more is described than what is appropriate, the content and the member will be subject to action from the staff.
Rule No. 6: Do not post, link, or discuss illegal websites. Legal liability is a concern, so to be safe we must enforce any violation of this. The staff will deliberate all violations on a case by case basis, and depending on the severity of the topic, your IP Address may or may not be reported. As long as you refrain from anything suspicious, you should be fine, though.
Rule No. 7: No excessive Rping in the Nexus chat thread, a little is fine but please don't go overboard, the RP sections are for Rping in.
Rule No. 8: In a given section of the forum, the Mod of that section's word is law. If you think a Mod has acted unfairly then please message myself or Exile, and it will be looked into. All staff e hand picked to avoid abuse of power, however like you the staff are only human ( mostly) and do make mistakes.
Also, be aware that these rules are subject to change at the staff’s discretion. We are proactive in letting all members know of all changes, however, so you shouldn’t worry! As long as you’re respectful and mindful of the rules, there is no reason why you shouldn’t enjoy and love this website just as much as we do.
Again, if you have any questions about any of the rules, feel free to message any member of the staff. We are more than happy to clarify or answer any questions you may have.
