Rules of the forum

Rule 10 - Traveling. Nobody can just magically appear somewhere, unless your a teleporter. But their range isn't that great. To travel from one place to another you must make a topic where you are leaving from to the new area you are going. For example, if i wanted to get from Silver Falls to Death Valley, I'd post in Silver Falls saying I'm leaving, and then making another post at Death Valley of my appearance.
Note: sometimes a mod will make a challenge for you to travel, by adding things such as bandits crossing your path, etc.

Rule 11 - Do not take anything serious. What does this mean? Do not take anything serious. Why? Because this is the internet. No one can touch you. No one can harm you in any way, so do not take anything serious. So be good, do not start fights, and please do your best to try and not take anything serious.

Rule 12 - Try to have fun. Do your best to have FUN!!, this is a type of creation to allow someone to relax and do what they wish in the world of Role-play. If someone gets upset with you, try to have fun with your character. If someone attacks you, hey try to make another character, or just try to survive with your character. If someone does something that you do not like, ask them out of character by sending them a PM. Tell them, hey I have something else planned with my character. Just remember to try to have fun.

Rule 13 - Members are treated with respect. There is no such thing as the word "noob" within sites. Those that call others "noobs" are what they say "noobs" themselves. "Newbs" are those who are new to the site wishing to learn. Other members who wish to cause trouble are short term. Statistics such as post count, positions, or time spent on Naruto Forum Role-play are meaningless. Staffs are members; they should be seen as the board's workers, not as all-powerful deities. Everyone should aim to get along with one another, avoid conflict, respect each other, and respect the boards.

Rule 14 - No Drama Whoring - One who constantly craves the chaos, feeling, and attention that drama can bring along with it. Often the drama sleeper will send out messages with absolutely no content except for something inflammatory or retaliatory directed at another person they dislike. Keep all harmful personal objectives off the boards. Do not turn opinions within the community against other members or seek to discredit members that you do not like.


Rule 15 - No Flooding - Defined as either posting more than five new threads in the same forum in an one hour period without staff permission, or bumping a load of dead topics which causes the previously active threads to drop off the first page. Do Not Bump a Thread. Please direct to Posting and You Thread to learn about Posting.

Rule 16 - No Advertising - Please do not post any type of advertising through the forum. You are not allowed to Private Message people inviting to sites. If you are caught, you will be banned. If you wish to advertise or affiliate with the site, please post your site within the Advertising and Affiliations Board.

Rule 17 - No Trolling - Trolling means deliberately seeking to cause damage to the community. Neo-trolling is another variant of this whereby you try to cause damage without making it seem like actual trolling (i.e.: subtle and intelligent trolling). This can include:

1. Maliciously exploiting 'loop holes' in the rules.

2. Seeking to constantly or massively undermine staff.

3. Massively or constantly publicly attacking the forum or how it is run on sites both associated and unassociated with the forum.

4. Privately plotting to cause problems on the forum.

5. Maliciously breaking rules.

6. After banning and returning by using other means.

7. Hacking - No hacking, or talking about hacking. Any form of speaking that may deal with hacking is an automatic ban.

Rule 18 - Respect the mods: If a mod closes a thread, or tells you to quit doing something, then please listen to them. While what they ask for may not make sense to you, it will make sense to everyone else who want what is best for the forum. If you are unhappy with a mod, then do not make a public protest thread, but PM an admin with the complaint and we will deal with it if necessary. You should have enough respect for mods and the time which they put in to be able to trust their judgment and the job that they do.

Rule 19 - Posting Capabilities - User may be in 2 threads MAX!! A Regular Role-Play thread, and a Private Training thread.
