1. No text speak in RP posts
I highly doubt people will just randomly say 'lol' or 'rofl'. Just don't do it. It's unprofesional. THis goes for emotes too. That is OOC stuff only.
2. No godmodding
This should go without saying. Your character has limits and flaws. They cannot, and should not, suddenly be able to beat everything in the world with their pinky finger, dodge everything ever, and defy the laws of time on a whim. Or knows exactly what the other person is planning. This includes using information the character should not explicitly have. Yes, these are Touhou characters. A satori WILL know what the other person is planning, Sakuya CAN defy time, and Yukari... Yukari can do whatever the hell she wants. But every character has limits and you must follow them. This rule is the reason why Yukari is a staff NPC.
3. Keep OOC (out of character) and IC (In character) actions separate.
The character is a separate entity from the RPer. You would do well to keep this in mind with your posts.
4. All IC posts should be in third person limited perspective.
This is pretty easy, folks. Unless you're playing a satori, in which case it'd be more like third person omniscient, there's no reason your posts should say what's going on in anyone else's head- but you should share what's going on in your character's head. And none of this "I did this, I did that" stuff. It's "Yukari did this, Yukari did that".
5. Dialogue should be colored or bolded.
This is less of a strict rule and more of a "we'd appreciate it." If your dialogue is formatted differently from the rest of your text, it makes skimming back over posts easier.
6. Keep all your characters active!
While there's no strict limit, if we notice characters are rotting in disuse, especially canons, ESPECIALLY important canons like Reimu, we will ask you to give one or more up.
7. You can have as many topics at once as you can handle...
...with a few exceptions. You can only have one modded quest topic per character at a time, and one player-run quest per character at a time. Yes, you can have one of each per character, and you can have infinity interaction and danmaku topics as long as you can keep up with them.
