One of my members suggested that I create this. Here, you will see a few words in the human world and average roleplaying world that shouldn't be used on StoneSayer. I also included topics that should not be discussed.
Please follow these rules. Don't let them or me scare you--I just wanted to clear a few things up!
- NO titles like Ms., Mr., Mrs., Lady, Sir, Madam, Ma'am, or anything else you can think of. Since wolves don't get married (they just have mates), they would not have titles that tell of their married status. Lady and Sir are excluded from this roleplay because wolves would have no idea what they mean whatsoever.
- NO words like woman, women, lady, ladies, men, man, person, people, no one, or anyone. All of these words (except the last two) have to do with humans, not wolves. If I ever see these, I will most likely correct them for you, but I will remember. Too many instances of this could get you a warning. As for the words 'no one' and 'anyone,' I really don't care if you use them, but I would prefer 'any wolf' or 'no wolf.'
- NO words like alpha, beta, omega, etc. These things are NOT from StoneSayer. StoneSayer has other rankings. Confused about them? The Help pages have an extensive section on ranks. Visit it.
- DON'T talk about 'getting a rank' or 'coming too late to get a rank.' This was inspired by one of my members who, believe it or not, actually talked about this to the other wolves during a roleplay. No offense meant to the member--I was just more than a little surprised. On StoneSayer, we assume that the wolves have earned their ranks, or have been born to them. In the roleplay, they really have.
- DON'T talk about the other Webs during the roleplay unless you're a Representative and you've let something accidentally slip (this builds on plots, of course). We all know that there are seven Webs, but your wolves don't. They know only about the Web in whose territory they live. Never assume otherwise!
- NEVER say anything like, 'Oh, God!' 'Geez!' or 'For goodness's sake!' The wolves don't have such phrases in their vocabulary. They say things like 'By the Web!' or 'Great Web of Flame!' (or whatever Web they reside in). If I see you use phrases like the three I listed for you, you will be warned.
Please follow these rules. Don't let them or me scare you--I just wanted to clear a few things up!
