The Forums.

This is the forum where you will find only important news that concerns the Guild as a whole. News that's only purpose is to inform you of special events and changes made to the guild. Be sure to read up on the latest RpGuild AP.


This forum is for introductions and departing words. One would be expected, when first joining the Guild, to make an introduction thread. This helps for new members to more quickly and comfortably migrate into the community. Allowing members to know a little about yourself and how you role-play is a good idea here. Don't be shy! We're all friends here!

To those of you under the age of 18 or 21 years, it is strongly advised by me, your local mother-figure, 76, to never give out information that is not needed to role-play or participate in community activities. No-one needs to know your age, sex, or location to play here.

This forum is for the discussion of play ideas, interest-checks, and all-around RpGuild-related discussion. This forum is heavily moderated, an as such, is a no-spam zone. Any spam threads here will either be moved to the off-topic discussion, or deleted.(at a moderator's discretion.)

This section is for user-posted Articles and Tutorials. Content that is thought to be useful to the Guild is placed here. Anyone can submit an Article. We encourage you to share any knowledge you have that may help someone. Constructive criticism is also encouraged. Help us, to help you.
This forum is for any sort of material that is not related to the Guild. Word games, life-problems and general chit-chat goes here. But keep in mind, though this forum's moderation is a bit more lax than others, it is still moderated. Any thread that degrades into meaningless spam will be deleted at a moderator's discretion.

This is the place to show off any of your personal handiwork. From signature request threads, to short stories. Any form of artwork is welcome here. Get feed-back and give commentary on other's works. Help yourself as well as others to improve.

(Note: It is highly frowned-upon to post claiming works that are not truly yours.)

This forum is for user-submitted suggestions to help the Guild. Anyone can discuss a suggestion, but anything but constructive or meaningful discussion will be considered spam or out-of-place here. Be sure to have a good idea what your talking about before adding to a discussion. Also be sure and see the Organized Suggestion-Box for a good list of suggestions that are still being debated.
Problems or concerns are also kept here. Any sort of server-related problem, site issue, or disturbance to the community. Don't be afraid to post here if you have any sort of problem. We'd be glad to help you.

This forum is for anyone who's just gotten into role-playing or someone who just wants to take things slow. Though riddled with a constant stream of one-liners, there are some really good plays in Beginner. One should not over-look this forum thinking that it's just a bunch of newbies going wild. Sometimes us older-folk just wanna take things easy and not worry about meeting higher standards.
Beginner's is also a great place to find simple inspiration. Reading through the plays is a great way to find ideas that take new spins on things you thought were boring.

This is the counter-part to the IC. The same rules apply to this forum. No double-posting. No off-topic, etc. When posting a play, it is a good idea to post an OOC counterpart in the appropriate OOC forum. This way you can discuss your plots, stories, and different aspects of the play in general to help further develop your play without the interruptions of OOC brackets.( {OOC} yo dewd Dat' ws kool hoa U totally kicked but{/OOC})

This forum is for those who consider themselves Role-play savvy. That is, they have a good feel, and a little bit of experience under their belt. Good, quality role-plays are many here. The standard for this forum is a single paragraph of development per post. No OOC in the role-plays, etc. Easy-going with some depth and without the weight of advanced standards.

The rules for Casual are about the same as for Beginner. You use the OOC to discuss. Not the role-play thread.
Not in the mood for simple piddling? Need something to really get your weathered engines roaring? Advanced is the way to go. With heavily moderated playing, a minimum of 3 paragraphs per post, and in-depth story-lines and characters. This forum is the place for 'your more-than role-play savvy' self. A little extra work is usually required for this forum, and the plays tend to move just a bit slower than the other forums. But if you have the skill to keep it going, then you're going to greatly enjoy this forum.
Let your marvelous stories and plays run free in this section. Let them grow and expand into the novels we all know you're writing.

As for the Beginner's and Casual, Advanced OOC is for all the stuff you wouldn't want cluttering your play. It is highly frowned-upon to post any OOC in an advanced thread. But, if you can't entirely avoid it, you can always place your OOC in a text-color that isn't incredibly noticable. Something like this
This is for those of you who just like to make a character and Kick ass. Basically it's the place for plays that involve much less plot-to-fighting ratio. The standards in this forum are the same as the Advanced standards. For a better idea of what belongs here check the Arena rules.

For all OOC related chatter about threads in the Arena forum.
