OOC Rules 1. All full members of Assembly may have 1 alternative character in the clan. You may of course have alts in other orgs, as long as you separate the characters. However, we are not a drop-off for your inactive characters, and it is expected that you play your Assembly characters actively. Inactive characters will be removed from the roster. 2. All conversation in guild channel should be in character (IC). If you need to make an out of character (OOC) comment, please make use of brackets [ ] or double parentheses (( )) to point out that you are speaking OOCly. We believe that staying IC as much as possible helps immersion and development of a strong roleplaying character. 3. Roleplaying should not aim to make other players uncomfortable. While our characters might say and do disturbing things, it's important to always be mindful and respectful of other players. If necessary, discuss a situation or a scene OOCly to make sure all involved parties understand and agree. Communication is key. Remember that a character and its player are not the same. 4. Do not engage in powerplay or abuse of OOC knowledge (metagaming). If members are using their Assembly character to metagame and feed an alt with knowledge, they will immediately be removed from the clan. Assembly is a strict roleplaying org, and this includes a sharp separation between characters. 5. Don't expect things to happen for you, but rather with you. Create your own stories and plots, be generous and invite other players to take part. It's much more fun when roleplay is shared instead of hogged. Be mature, take responsibility and most of all, have fun. 6. Use the forums actively. If not posting, then at least reading. The forums are a good way to keep up with what's new, and you're expected to keep yourself updated. 7. Try to let the org know if you plan to be away for a time. There is no shame in taking a break from AO, but don't leave the rest of the clan hanging by just disappearing. It's disrespectful to those who are waiting for you to log on. 8. No members of Assembly will under any circumstance harass other players, whether they are org members or not, clanners or from a different faction. This includes begging for credits or items or excessive swearing and malicious behavior. Treat other players with respect and remember that your actions reflect on Assembly.
