| Dear All, I want to take this time to re-inforce the rules of the UNWA, in particular I would like to remind people about 'power posing' and 'keeping things realistic' in rp's. 1. Power Posing: Those who are new to Role Playing may not be familiar with this term, but it is one of the most frustrating things that someone can do.
- Do not roleplay for others (unless you have permission)
- Do not attack other players without letting them have a chance to avoid your attack. It is fine to 'swing a chair' at a player, but the other player should be the one who decides if that chair shot hits or misses.
- Do not make other players look weak, or go against their character, i.e making a heel look like a face or vice versa.
- Keep within the realms of realism, while it may just be about believable that Mama D and Timelord would make a baby, it's another thing to believe in aliens coming down from space or rocket launchers blowing things up. Let's keep things as real as we can please.
- If someone agrees to you getting the upper hand in one rp, you should be willing to give a little in the next rp. That way you keep rivalry going rather than just frustrate your rp partner. You should always look to make your opponent strong, if you best someone weak...who cares...you lose to someone who is weak...you look an idiot.
- Try to refrain from making convaluted far strung out rp's. If no one knows where you are going with an rp then it's hard for them to get involved.
- Keep the number of people you rp for to a minimum, we have a NPC roster for a reason.
Special endings will still continue as this is a nice way to add some spice into the shows, where you don't know if something if going to happen in your matches until you watch it. But the VGM's will make the decision if the special ending is appropraite. Remember if you don't want your wrestler to be involved in any 'special endings' you should advise me or one of the VGM's. The reason for the reinforcement of the rules is to keep the harmony here in the UNWA, we have a good reputation as one of the best RP feds around, lets not ruin that. Anyone continually abusing these above rules will be asked to leave the UNWA. If anyone wants to comment on these rules or feel I have missed something out please do so. KR Leon | |
