GENERAL / OOC
Respect; Please treat the other players around with it. If you give respect you will receive it. Since this is a place with the need to interact with others, you will get warnings if someone finds your behavior inappropriate.
Activity; We ask for constant activity on this forum as to not dull the excitement and storyline, as other character interactions are often hindered by separate players. If you can't post a few times a week, this place is probably not for you. Inactive characters will be removed if they begin to hinder the progress of other players. You are not here to watch us. People who join just to read our work will be removed.
Rating; This role play is rated M for multiple reasons. Left 4 Dead, the game it is based upon, is a mature rated game. The role play will consist of interactions with the opposite sex, references of drugs and alcohol, as well as brutal zombie killing and humans running for their lives. This board allows content of a sexual nature and interactions between characters in this manner is not prohibited. You've been warned.
Spam; Don't do it. I have a gun.
Display Name; This will be the name of your character. (ex. Zoey) No last names are required. If you don’t change it it will be changed for you.
For infected characters, you must have your infection class then your name. (ex. Hunter Joe, Witch Jane)
If you have multiple characters, your display name will be that of your main character used. NOT both, not a combination. Your main. If your main dies, you may change your name to that of your new main character.
CHARACTERS
Bio Form; This will be provided for you when you submit a character. Please follow its guidelines. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Francis loves questions.
Number of Characters; You may have a current total of 4 characters.
Types of Characters; You can be either human or infected, but there is a limit to the types of characters we can withstand. You can use characters from the game or create your own, so the amount of human characters is unlimited. Infected characters currently have a limit.

(NPC's can consist of humans or infected. Keep in mind if you NPC a human, try not to drag them along. They can be used for story development, not a way of cheating the character allowance.)
Wait for Acceptance; You must wait for your character to be accepted before you can do anything in the storyline.
IC (IN CHARACTER)
Story Time; This RPG runs on static time. So, when you post, time is frozen until the next post. Posts must act in sequence.
No PP or GM; You know what this means. Don't do it. Remember my gun...?
Posting Rules; Posts must be hefty in length and may be in 3rd or 1st person. Please use proper English and correct grammar, I don’t want to have to constantly be editing behind everyone, because I will. You may use other people’s characters only with their permission.
When having two characters, it is not required you state your main characters name before your post. If you are posting as your second character which is not your display name, please put the name of your character on top before your post.
Death Rules; Infected characters cannot kill any humans without the permission of the owner of that character. You are permitted to kill any NPC's though. Humans may not kill any playable infected without permission either. If this rule becomes to awkward in a situation and the players reach a standstill that they cannot resolve on their own it will be put in to admin hands.
