This rule does not apply to any threads created before the time and date stamp of this post, nor any within a day afterwards.
Just to be fair~
This also does not apply to "Otherworlds".
When you create a roleplay, many people tend to make up their own time and weather and such. In Soaeniin, we have a click and a season image just below the Cbox for a reason.
Whenever you start an RP thread, the time should be within two hours or so of whatever time the clock displays. Don't forget am/pm. If you want to create a thread that doesn't go by this, you'll need to get permission. And if you do get permission, you'll need to clearly mark in the top of your first post, in OOC, the approximate time//weather.
Whenever you start an RP thread, the season should be that shown in the image below the clock. The weather may be abnormal for the season, but parts of the season must be apparent. Such as if you started an RP thread now, you'd have it on a late Winter day; it may be abnormally warm for Winter, but trees would still be leafless, flowers still hiding in their buds, and so on. All seasons must be the same; you are not permitted to make an RP outside of the season--no permission will be given. Sorry~
I'm fairly lax with these rules. If you mess up, like, big time, and it'd entail a huge amount of editing to fix, I'll probably just ask you to make a note somewhere that you did mess up and to say what the weather should be like, or something. This is just more of a regulation, it's not like you'll get banned for screwing up~
TIME and DATE and SEASON do not change within a thread unless it is marked upon the thread itself, part of the RP!
This is fairly important to remember. If an RP starts at one time with one set of weather, it will not change based on how long you take to reply to it. It won't be some ten hours later by the next reply if that's how long you took to type up your response. Once in a specific time, it goes on from there. You may mark time changes (such as sleeping until dawn, or just a lapse in time as they travel with nothing interesting to say, or from one route to another).
