To make Azwarg RP enjoyable for everyone, users should read and respect all of the following etiquette rules. Repeated failure to follow these rules may result in warnings, and eventually, a ban.
1) No excessive chatspeak! While something like "brb" is fine, constantly using stuff such as "haha omg LOL ur so funny!" or leetspeak can be difficult to understand or even annoying to users.
2) Try to use proper grammar and good spelling at all times. No one is perfect at either, that's understandable, but good grammar and spelling will make conversation easier and more mature sounding.
3) Azwarg RP is meant to appeal to young teens and older. While we want to give you freedom of speech, we must have certain rules to protect minors, which can be found here. Be sure to use warning tags when you need them.
4) No harassing other users. If you feel harassed, please report to a staff member immediately.
5) If you have an argument with another user, please take it to PMs and do not post it in a board.
6) Don't whine or throw pity parties! If you really want to vent about something bad that's happening to you, do so in a private place like your journal, or PM a fellow member who you trust to listen to you. Staff members have the power to delete topics that are overly whiny or pity party-like.
7) Stay on topic, whether it is in a roleplay or an out of character thread.
8) Do not spam in topics! Spam includes gibberish and one-word posts. If you really want to ramble, you can do it in the chat box found at the bottom of the forums.
9) Theft and plagiarism is NOT tolerated! You cannot claim someone else's art, character idea, design, writing, etc. as your own! If you wan to use someone else's ideas, please ask them for permission first and source any images that aren't yours!
10) Please create only one account per person! Multiple accounts can be discovered through IP addresses and will be banned.
11) Please avoid discussion of controversial topics like religion or politics on the boards or in the chatbox. Your pets may discuss fictional instances of such things in-character, but you cannot do so out of character as to prevent heated debates and tension.
12) Users are given a total of 5 warnings before they are banned.
