RULES
ABOUT US
We're a literate, descriptive and selective AU Once Upon A Time role-play group. However we're not your conventional site. Even though you just found this forum, this is not where our role-plays take place. This online tool serves as resource site for our members in which they can update information about their character's development, relationships and pretty much every information they find relevant when it comes to their progress on the plot. (Among other fun stuff). The only role-plays that take place on the site are the Events (Balls, Town Meetings, etc) not only because it implies bigger posts but because we want to have them all stored up and organized. Why do we role-play mainly on twitter you might ask? Well, It's a great tool if you want to keep a group and be able to make the plot move fast. Replies can be quickly delivered by twitter (computer or mobile, doesn't matter) and it's perfect even for people that cannot find the sufficient amount of time to be on the computer. A lot of people are hesitant when it comes to Twitter RP but trust us, if done with the right group, you'll have loads of fun!
GENERAL RULES
Before we tell you how to actually join us, there are a few rules we would like you to read, respect and follow:
1) Members must be descriptive, literate and role-plays are written in the third person.
2) If during a whole month we don't see any role-play activity in your account, we'll remove you from the group and re-open your role. So if you're going to be absent for a while, please leave us a message on the Away board. If you intend to stay and be active, we don't ask you to come online everyday but try to post frequently enough and be hand to hand with the plot.
3) Don't be rude or offensive in anyway. Don't bring with you OOC drama. None of these points will be tolerated in any shape or form. Ignore this rule and you will be removed from the group.
See? That wasn't so hard now was it?
JOINING
You can apply through the site if you wish. For that, please register and send a message to one of the staff members with desired role and role-play sample.
Remember, no one liners.
Once accepted you will have to create a twitter account for your character and follow the main account and all the members of the group as described bellow.
If you wish to apply through twitter, here's how you do it:
First of all, you need create a twitter account for your character. If you have no idea what to place on it's information, you can check mine as an example.
Then you need to follow this account. This is the group's main account. It's where we place information regarding the group and also where we post plot updates so every member knows what's happening on the plot.
After you find our group account, you can check out the list of taken characters. If a character or a face claim (in case of an OC) is not listed there or it's mentioned as OPEN, that means it's available so you're free to apply to it. To apply, we request that you send us a role-play sample through a DM (direct message). We'll review it and get back to you as soon as we can. You can also check the list of taken characters here and taken face claims for OC's here.
OC's are allowed, but to apply for an OC the role-play sample isn't enough. In addition to the sample, please send us the bio for your character so we can review it before being accepted.
Once accepted into the group, please make your presentation tweet. This will be the first tweet you'll be doing. It can be a gif, a quote, whatever you feel like. Pin it so it always stays on top on your profile and we can easily find it to re-tweet it and share your account through the group.
After your application for said character as been accepted, we will ask you to to register on this site as well so you can settle up your stuff as time goes by.
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS
Please remember you'll be joining a group that follows the same plot. Meaning, every time you start a role play with one of your mains from the group, it will be automatically considered as part of the group's story-line.
If you find yourself confused about how to RP on twitter, don't panic. Just message our main account on twitter or one of the staff members on here with all your questions and we'll explain everything to you.
And finally,
Have fun!
