1. This is a place to RP, not to idle, use as an OOC chat-pit, or do persona-play in. If you are in the dream, you’re expected to be available for RP to anyone who asks. Please see more info here: Anti-Idling Policy
“It’s sad when you log on looking for RP, and everyone is gray, or chatting OOC. ; A; Some of us only have limited time, after all!”
2. It’s all right if your character is villainous, but we do not allow our players to harass, curse at, or use racial slurs at other players. You may not discriminate against playing with others due to nationality, religion, race, sexual preference, or age.
“Characters can struggle along with their feelings and reasons! It makes for good development. But OOC hate will not be tolerated.”
3. Private RP - being RP that you intend to bar others from, or RP that is held separate and insular from the continuity of the dream - is not a concept we support in Nasmara. If your characters are in the dream, they can be walked in on at any time, by anyone (with appropriate in-character consequences applied!)
4. Remember that even though your characters may be punished for misbehavior, we still love you. Your characters’ actions here will always have a realistic reaction, or consequences.
5. We require character descriptions to describe what other characters see when they look at your character. Please keep favourite songs, poems, and pictures limited to links at the end of this. You may be asked to leave if they do not comply.
“Sometimes people just aren’t in a place where they can open links, and it’s hard to get through a site just to look for a small detail! Think of your peers!”
6. Our admins work hard to make sure everyone has a fair experience in Nasmara, and we expect our players to do the same. Your character may not come in specifically to participate in PvP, and they may not be all-powerful. Please respect that the Island, ICly, has ways to stop your character if needed.
“We try to allow for lots of room for fun and adventure, but going overboard with it makes everyone sad."
7. If there are any disputes regarding the outcomes of fights, be it against NPC monsters or events (pve), or against another player’s character (pvp), an admin’s ruling is final.
8. If you feel you must have a complaint against another player, bring it to an admin instead of that player. We’ll try to arbitrate. Our rulings are final.
9. Anyone may remind anyone else of these rules - even admin, if we forget ourselves!
10. No character may arrive with more than 10g to the island. Why they only have 10g with them is up to you! We enforce this because one of the purposes to the dream is to have your character gradually earn wealth. Guns are also not allowed on the island, although some primitive rifles and handguns were known at the time. Why your character does not have a gun is also up to you, but they cannot have one on the island!
11. If you develop a problem with one of our admin, take it up with us. You won’t be punished for a complaint, and we can only fix things we know about. The exception to this is if you have a problem with one admin but not another. If you’re more comfortable voicing your concerns to one, the admin you pick will arbitrate for you with the admin you’re struggling with.
12. Sometimes, though, a player or a character may just not be a comfortable fit in the dream; they might want to play something too sexual, or too creepy, or just have too hard of a time complying with our rules. If we feel you’re struggling, we will likely invite you to bring in a different character first to see if that fixes things, but then we may have to ask you to leave.
13. Lastly, we will comply with and enforce both Furcadia and Imaginarium TOS as well as any real-life laws that we’re subject to. This might mean that we’ll have to ask some players to remove certain kinds of content and conduct from our dream.
“Rape RP and sexually charged artwork of characters who appear to be minors are examples of this.”
