Lately, Zukofire and I have noticed the lack in quality of Role-play. Please read and adhere to these rules: they're not new, they're just being REINFORCED.
Basically use complete sentences, capitalization, NO CHAT-SPEAK WHATSOEVER.
Members who post without using basic grammar and spelling skills will be warned via PM. If they continue to use chats-peak, incomplete sentences, and lack capitalization, we will delete any offending posts; therefore, leading to a lack in the Role-Play.
BUT: If we can tell that effort is put into the post, we will overlook small errors, because everyone is human and we all make mistakes.
Example of really bad post:
kaya enterd the house. she lookd around. "omg! where is my puppy? rover, where r u?"
To improvise this, use as many details as you can, but sound natural, as if you're telling someone from your view.
Kaya entered the the tiny, gray house. She looked about, her face held an anxious expression. "Oh my god! Where is Rover? Where are you?" She shouted, while searching every crevice in the room.
(You guys can do better than my little example xD)
Basically, don't post something as bad as that and you won't get in trouble. Put effort into what you post, and everyone will be happy.

Thanks for that rule, Horyo-san! It is really...annoying...when you really enjoy RP and love it, but your experience is ruined by bad grammar and chat-speak.

I have been seeing this alot too, I am new to the RP Galaxy but I try my best, and I still have alot to work on, The first sentence with the dog was REALLY hard to imagine, the second was REALLY clear to picture even though i dont know what Kaya looks like, but thats what Imagination is for "You use your IMAGINATION"

Thank you guys for understanding Your welcome . The annoying thing in RP is also when people don't use capitals. It's like, " OMG! It takes you sooo long to push the 'Shift' or 'Caps Lock' button! "
