FAQ
How does posting work in your game?
Players have their characters interact with other characters in ‘threads’. New members can join most active game threads (if that thread is still open for new characters), and begin interacting with other characters. It is always best to ask other players, and so we use an OOC (out of character) forum to discuss characters, game threads, ideas or general questions.
Each thread is unique to a character group, giving them a different goal, plot and interactivity from other game threads. We list game threads in this format: Thread Title (character name) So, as an example, a thread would read like this in our posting forums: The Journey North (Cereth). The thread title remains the same until an arc ends or an event causes the title to change.
We write in a story format, third person view. Although we know there are many people who like to write in first person, it is just not a style we like or want used in the game. There are also some players who prefer to write in present or past tense. We do not have a strict ruling on this and allow the players to write in whichever form is more comfortable and appropriate for their writing style.
Players are required to include the game’s current date, year- time, location, region (if applicable) and continent on the top of their post. If you are just joining the game, all players posts will have this listed and you can just lift it and place it on your own starting posts. An example of this would be:
(Florarest 18, 3119 ADW - Morning, City of Ise, Espia, Thelahar)
At the bottom of posts we usually close off with a (Tag). This means it is open for other players to respond to. If you want you can be specific and have the tag feature open for a certain character, where you’d list it (tag, name.) You can also include any OOC messages or notes at the bottom of your post in this manner. For example: (Tags. That was great! :D) If your post is not open for other characters to respond to, then you’d list it (Closed, to be continued.)
