User blog:BugMod/Update 1 - The Known Boundaries

Hello, roleplayers of Elements of Disharmony! This RP has been going for a good two months now, and while it seems all is going well so far, I thought I would take this time to etch down the boundries that have been tested (mostly by myself).

Recently, there have been many incidents in which I've gone too far or brought into play topics that no one needs or wants to see, and as such, I will now list a few new rules. These are not up for debate by anyone and they are my decisions as a mod. Any comments, here, in the RP, or in the Skype room, saying it is hypocritical of me to post these rules will be ignored, because they have been posted specifically due to the experience I have in testing these boundries and limits.
 * Rape, in any way, shape, form, context, whatever, is absolutely prohibited. This rule is effective immediately. Any incidents that have already occured will not be retconned if they are relevant to a character's development, but said incidents will not be elaborated upon any further.
 * Sexual scenes should always be non explicit and/or fade to black. There is enough porn on the internet as it is, and we do not need to be one of the contributors.
 * If a user blocks you, then they have done so in knowing that their character will never have any reason to interact with yours and have done so only with the approval of 1 or more moderators.
 * ^ Piggybacking off of this rule, do not block anyone without the approval of 1 or more moderators and do not block anyone you may inevitably run across in the RP, i.e., essential characters and/or villains. This is not to say that essential characters and/or villains cannot block others; they can.
 * If people are getting uncomfortable and/or upset with a scene, then it is time to tone it down. While gut, soul, and heart wrenching scenes can be fun to write or play, know the limits of what your fellow players are comfortable seeing.
 * If you know before going into a scene that your timezone is going to be an issue, then it is likely best to not get upset when the others in a scene go on while you sleep. Proxy is a magical thing and the progression of a scene while one is away isn't the end of the world.
 * ^ Piggybacking off of this rule, never proxy without one's permission.

Cheers,
