GodModding and MetaGaming Policy
While we support that there should never be godmodding or powerplaying/meta gaming, there are instances we have found where it has been very acceptable. Have you ever done a pre-planned plot where a specific character was doomed to die? It starts off as an epic battle, but you run out of time and need to get off the computer. Instead of moving the roleplay to the forum, or completing it later, why not allow them to perform a move worthy of "godmodding" to kill off the character then and there? Or if you had to leave, and the character was going to die anyway, allow someone else to play him for a moment. Sometimes you play with people for years and years that they just understand your character enough to implement what that character will most likely do in particular events. While this is irritating, they aren't ruining the character and thus it shouldn't be that much of a problem. These are all mild circumstances over looked at the mention of MetaGaming and GodModding.
If you ever have a problem where someone takes advantage of the lienency this policy creates, first try to bring it up to the offender. When that does not work, tell an admin or a moderator immediately.

FAQ
1. What is the writing level of this site?
------All. We are very patient with teaching new people the ropes, but most of us are refugee veterans anyway.
2. Maturity level?
------16+. Though by ESRB ratings (not that we use them) T - M. For possible gore and adult situations.
3. I've never seen something like this! I don't know what to do or where to start!
------Talk to people! Everyone is super friendly and very willing to get people started. In fact, be prepared to be swarmed. But if you would like a quieter approach, join the forum and check out the Walkthrough.

Only three questions? That I made up?! We're just that awesome.
