Code of Conduct
basic rules
- We are an 21+, 3-3-3 site. Conduct yourself with empathy and compassion for your fellow members. No metagaming, godmodding, powerplaying, or generally being a poor sport.
- Do not purposefully try to find and/or abuse loopholes.
- Harassment is not permitted. Morbus Motus and its discord are safe places. We have a zero tolerance on bigotry of any kind. We expect our members to be understanding about triggers and sensitive when having discussions.
- We do not allow OOC planning and plotting, to help drive organic development, and put an emphasis on all-welcome threads. Planning includes everything beyond inviting a member to post in a thread, ie. asking for pack members, requesting alliances, "shipping" non-existing relationships, etc. We will not go out of our way to police your DMs but ask that members respect this as the intended spirit of the site.
- Morbus Motus does not utilize posting tables or altering of font color, tables, etc when posting. Font weights - bold, italic, underline, etc - are fine. This is to encourage a focus on development and legibility.
- We will never permit or condone the use of AI, for art or writing.
in character rules
- MM'ss post length requirement is roughly 150 words.
- We are primarily a Player versus Environment site, however Player versus Player will inevitably come up. We have no specific levels for this and run by the rule that all actions have consequences.
- Be aware of appropriation and slurs. Be considerate when choosing names, personalities, any disabilities or mental illnesses, etc. We reserve the right to ask players to make changes to foster a respectful community.
- Sexual assault, incest, grooming, and necrophilia are absolutely not allowed.
- When posting content that could be potentially triggering, appropriately tag your thread and make a mention at the top of the first post.
Time
- Time on MM is double real life time. That means every IC year will be roughly 6 months real time. Each month will be 14 days.
- MM also uses liquid time which means your character can be in multiple threads at once. However, this should not be abused. Threads may not be backdated or forward-dated to a different season. If your character is in a potentially life-altering thread, please consider waiting for these to be finished before posting elsewhere.
