If she were warm and fuzzy she'd be a kitten Posts: 1,983 Group: Overseer Member #1 Joined: June 17, 2004 Gender Female Preferred Name Shadow	Concerning the Rules 1.What is Godmoding? Godmoding is the act of having an invincible character. This means that they cannot be struck, can amazingly escape all attacks and death, and strike the other character, giving them no chance to retaliate. Even the gods and goddesses of Elenlond do not have that much power. In any case, it means you’re acting godly. 2.What is Powerplaying? Powerplaying is similar to godmoding. However, instead of being invincible, you are controlling another member’s character as though they were your own. This includes actions that were not stated in the previous post, dialogue that was not said, and spells that were not used. 3.What is Spam? Spamming means to post a bunch of pointless messages to gain money or raise your post count. This annoys members and takes up space on the forum. If you want to spam, please do so in the The Den forum. 4. What is Metagaming? Metagaming is the act of taking OOC information and using it IC. This could include a conversation you had with someone over IM, or the knowledge you took from a character's history. It's fine if you know these things, but when you bring them in IC and your character hasn't heard them for themself, it becomes an issue. You should always react to a person's post with the information your character knows, not the information you know. You should also not edit your post after you have already posted it if someone mentions that they are going to do something different than was originally planned.
