Right I had a list I'd posted in another RPG forum but I can't find it so this is purely from memory......
1/ This is a family board so keep it clean....violence etc to a minimum, and if characters must get it on leave it to our imaginations with a 'Fade To Black'. Essentially ask yourself 'Would I want my child/sibling/niece or nephew/whatever reading this?'
2/ Okay I know it's kind of a bit silly to be saying 'keep it real' when it's all SF/Fantasy orientated but please keep it real. This means allowing your adversary the opportunity to fight back and not making your character invincible and all-knowing. If your character is in one place, another character is in another place then your character will not know what that character is doing unless he/she is told about it.
3/ This is kind of tied in with 2/ but so important it needed mentioning all on it's own. Reset buttons......THERE IS NO RESET BUTTON!!!!! Sorry but if something happens in the RP you later want to change you're going to have to do some work to come up with a plausible story as to why that dead character hasn't died or whatever. You cannot make things just un-happen.
4/ Do not kill a character without permission from the player. This applies whether a player character or a non-player character.
5/ Each game must have a GM. Permission to join a game must be sought from the GM. Please note this does not apply to Character Interaction threads.....those may be started by anyone and you just follow the tone of the thread.
6/ The number of characters you can juggle is entirely at the GMs discretion.
7/ Disputes are to be resolved as follows....
i/ Amongst the players involved ii/ If not resolved discuss with the GM ii/ If not resolved take it to the top
8/ Have fun!
Right if anyone wants to add or change any of this post here and I'll get right on it. I've posted these because these, or something very similar, have worked in every roleplaying forum I've ever been in. I hate rules personally but they're a necessary evil......you wouldn't believe some of the things RPers have tried to pull.

Okay flip...do you want to GM or just play?
And did we agree it was just DW roleplaying?

Hi everybody
Can I sign up please?
Just playing is best for me
To be honest, with school and everything, dedication is not my focal point.

I'm posting invites on every board I know. But we really need to establish what types of RPGs are acceptable. After that we need at least one GM.

I would rather not GM (work load high at the mo) but I'm happy to if you're desperate, and from a personal point of view just DW (since that is where my entire sphere of knowledge is)

GM? i have never done roleplay before, and will probably leave you to your own divices, (though i'll still be watching out for trouble) but i would like to know what you are planning etc.

Well I've modded an RP forum but most of my experience has been as a player. I did GM once but that was only because the old GM kind of begged me to.
As for the actual RP I did think we could do a sort of cross-genre character interaction to begin with. Set in the DW universe but say there's some sort of inter-dimensional thingy which sucks in people from other SF universes. Does that sound ok?
