HOW TO START。
| > So you got accepted! Good job! Welcome to the fray! (: > ONE。 Please make a journal for your character. Layout, icon, you know the deal. Make sure to post your character's information (from the application) somewhere easily accessible. A backdated post in the journal or in the journal profile would be perfect. > TWO。 Comment right [ HERE ] with the series, character name, etc. We'll update the lists frequently. > THREE。 Join  otrolado and otrowhat, and friend  otromods. Though friending character journals is a choice, it is mandatory that you friend these three, so that you can keep up with any important announcement and see where logs pop up.> FOUR。 Not necessary, but why don't you skip over to otrowhat and introduce your new muse? Or if you're new, pop by and say hi. Most people don't bite.> FIVE。 CONCERNING LOGS: Though journal interaction is an open option, this is mostly a log-based community. When writing logs, please keep the following in mind: ⇒ Logs will be third-person point-of-view. However, feel free to write entirely in narrative style ("...and he walked down the street, and said, "Where is this?") or go with describing actions in comments ("[And he walks down the street.] "Where is this?") ⇒ To keep comments from getting squashed against the side of the page, it's advised that when logging, all tags are posted as new comments, instead of replies, and the players subscribe to the post. This makes it much easier to read, and keeps comment threads from being collapsed after a while. Also makes it easier for logs involving multiple people! ⇒ All logs are to be placed under a cut, and any logs rated M or NC-17 must be clearly marked as such. We did warn players upon applying, but it's always nice to provide a warning to someone who might stumble upon your logs. ⇒ The log header can be found [ HERE ]. Please make sure to fill it out at the beginning of each log. > SIX。 CONCERNING JOURNALS: Characters journals are exactly that: they have a blog. They can post in it every day, or not at all, whatever is in-character for them. Friending other journals is an open option, too, and if a character wants to start drama with a friends-cut, that's fine, too. Just make sure you don't defriend otromods, otrolado or otrowhat and it's all good! |
