Role-play Guidelines
A collection of guidelines to better help role-play flow better & respect all involved

Using OOC knowledge to influence your IC decisions is strictly prohibited. Keep in-character (IC) knowledge and out-of-character (OOC) knowledge separate. Just because you OOC know something does NOT mean you know it IC. Just because you see a player...
Play Fair (No Powergaming or Godmodding)
Forcing an action or outcome on another character without giving them a chance to respond or react. Avoid making your character invincible, all-knowing, or always victorious. Accept defeat and failure sometimes; it adds depth and realism to your char...

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. ...
