# Communicate OOC

### Roleplay is a shared experience.

- ##### Use **OOC** communication to clarify intent, resolve conflicts, or plan scenes.
- ##### Be polite and open to compromise when disagreements arise.
- ##### If you are unsure of something, ask. For example, if you are unsure of whether someone said something **IC** or **OOC**, ask: ((Just checking, was that an **IC** or **OOC** message?))

### OOC communication builds trust.
