Sim Rules

Sim Rules

Sim Rules will go here.

Rule 1: IC != OOC

A core part of roleplay is to make a split between what happens IC [In Character] and OOC [Out of Character].  Opinions, actions, speak, etc that is done IC does not mean the player of the character means that OOC.  IC characters can hate your character, but OOC the players get along.  It is alway key to keep a wall between what happens IC and what happens OOC.

Rule 2: Metagaming

Along with the first rule of splitting IC and OOC comes metagaming.  If you learn something IC, you are allowed to use that however you wish.  However, if you learn something OOC, be it in discord or SL voice, in an OOC channel, in a DM, you can NOT use it ICly.  Your character does not have your knowledge.

Rule 3: Character and Player age.

The Player and Character must both be 18+ to roleplay here.  Your character should look 18+ as well, this means no Child or Underage looking avatars.

Rule 4: No Godmodding or Powergaming

This rule goes along with Rule 2.  A character that is impossible to beat, or always wins no matter what becomes a character no one wants to play with.  You should NEVER force an action on someone.  If you are roleplaying that you are hitting a character, it should be an attempt.  Let them decide if it hits [or use the HUD to decide]

Rule 5: Fit the lore/sim

Make sure your character and avatar design fits the lore and style of the sim.  As this is a Modern day Eldritch themed sim, try to stir clear of races that don’t fit into what is currently offered.  No Dragons, no spaceships, etc.

Rule 6: Be considerate

While you are never forced to roleplay with someone, if you join a scene we ask that you be considerate to all involved.  We are a welcoming sim for everyone.  We are a LGBTQ+ sim, and we have a zero tolerance policy for any harassment of anyone in the Discord, on Sim, or in the Sim Groups.

Rule 7: Consent

Please respect limits of other characters and get consent for RP actions that can cause permanent changes to a character.

Rule 8: Adult Content

Coldridge County is an Adult [18+] rated sim, however any sexual behavior we ask that you take it to either private areas [such of rental homes] or businesses that allow it.  The city and town would not allow it in public.
