I would like everyone to review these rules that I and Commander Trek have agreed are appropriate for this ship. If you have a concern with the rules as they are written, please PM me with your concerns by November 12th, and I will make appropriate modifications.
If there are no complaints or concerns mentioned, I will assume everyone is in agreement. If concerns are noted, on Nov-12, I will open up the finalized rules (modified with crew input) for ratification via a poll. I think we can get 100% of the active crew to vote "aye" (yes) this way. I'll settle with a 2/3rds majority of voters though. I want everyone to have rules they want to live by. I don't want to play dictator!
So, without further delay:
Rules
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Leaves of over one (1) week must be posted. If you find you haven't posted in the mission thread for seven (7) days, please post a Leave of Absence (LOA) giving a time-frame for your return. A PM or email to the First Officer or the Captain can constitute as a formal LOA in extreme circumstances, but is not preferable.
2. After one (1) week of inactivity in the current mission thread without posting a leave, the Captain or First Officer will send a PM and/or email to you. If you do not respond within one (1) week of said PM or email, you will be placed to Trivia Only (TO).
* This does not apply to members who have requested special permission to post less frequently prior to their assignment to the ship, or for those who are on a LOA. Inactivity warnings will occur at a proportional time-frame from last post or end of absence for these members.
3. Any complaints of other crew members shall be handled off the boards via PM, email, messenger services, or yahoogroups, and should follow the appropriate chain of command. Positive suggestions and comments, as well as constructive criticisms, are acceptable for the boards.
Guidelines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The command staff will not be poking for posts. If you do not post, you run the risk of being transfered to TO.
- Try to keep Out of Character (OOC) comments in the OOC thread. OOC comments in the mission thread should be reserved for plot direction by whomever is driving the main plot, and used sparingly.
Please note, I plan on grandfathering in anyone wishing to be exempt from the 1 post a week rule if they wish so they fall within the asterisked clause of rule #2. Just let me know.
