Scatterhome FactionTalk

NoxAmara

Is it just me, or are some channels just...depressing as hell for a game that just launched? It would be kind of nice if the Dev Team had "Paragons" [Gods], so to speak, over each of the factions to oversee nonsense, and keep some of the chaos in line with a basic code of ethics. IDK...should I just FTOFF like everyone else? ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )

HELP ROLEPLAYING has just been added to clarify what we expect here!

To roleplay means to play a role. In the context of Starmourn, roleplaying means that you play as your character, similar to acting on a stage or in a film.
 
Roleplaying is encouraged, but not required, in Starmourn. However, in order to maintain an immersive experience, we expect you to stay in-character (IC) as much as possible and not seek to disrupt other peoples' experience with out-of-character talk.
 
 
What's the difference between roleplaying and staying in-character?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Staying in-character (IC) is mostly about NOT being out-of-character (OOC). Talking about real life, other games, the settings in your MUD client, etc. are all examples of being OOC. Please stay IC on public channels and in public places. You can be OOC in tells or in less public places, as long as the other people around you don't mind.
 
 
Specific places to stay IC
--------------------------
- shouts/yells
- news posts
- faction tells
- dynasty tells
- crew channels
- some clans

God please yes.

I'm going to play devil's advocate slightly and urge you to just suck it up, Princess. 

We need Scatterhome to stay IC, period. But if you can't handle the utter chaos that is and will be Scatterhome, you should probably just FTOFF for now. I can assure you that once the game has been up for a while, people will calm down slightly, some of the idiots will be weeded out, and SH will be ever so slightly better.
