In-Character vs Out-of-Character (IC/OOC) Separation:
What your character knows, thinks, feels, or does is not the same as what you (the player) know or feel & vice versa. Do not let OOC knowledge affect IC behavior.
IC and OOC are to remain separate. YOU ARE NOT YOUR CHARACTER. YOUR CHARACTER IS NOT YOU.
Do NOT use roleplay as a cover for personal attacks or harassment.
IC Actions Have IC Consequences ONLY. Actions in-character do NOT translate to OOC disputes. OOC and IC Separation Is Law.
Personal feelings do NOT dictate IC interactions. No matter how you may feel OOC about something, your IC actions should have nothing to do with ANYTHING OOC!
This is the GOLDEN rule of roleplay. Breaking this rule can cause serious issues, so it should NEVER be taken lightly.
