RULES AND GUIDELINES

GENERAL

01. Be Kind. Please show members and staff of Stopping Tomorrow kindness and respect. This includes doing your best to welcome others into conversation, engaging with their artwork, and engaging with their characters. Bullying, harassment, and otherwise harmful or toxic behavior is not welcome in the community. 

02. 18+ Campaign. Stopping Tomorrow is exclusively for members 18+. While we will be using the honor system for members, if you are discovered to be lying about your age, you will be promptly removed from the campaign. However, if you are currently 17 and have your 18th birthday before the start of campaign launch, you are welcome to join as if you are already 18!

03. Sensitivities and Triggers. Please be courteous and respectful of the triggers and sensitivities of members in the Stopping Tomorrow community. A list of triggers to mark as Spoiler will be available in the Discord, however, please ensure to mark any potential triggers with a warning. (ex. TW: pet death)

04. No NSFW. Sexual content of any sort is not welcome whatsoever in any platform of Stopping Tomorrow's campaign. If you are posting non-group artwork that has artistic or doll-like nudity, such as anthro references, please Spoiler them in the Discord and post a warning as such. (ex. CW: doll-like nudity)

05. Artwork. All artwork you use for your character application must be your own, whether it is drawn, or commissioned/gifted from another artist. Bases are not an acceptable form of art for a character application, but can be kept in reference folders (ie. Toyhouse) or linked to help other members get a feeling for certain intricacies in patterns or colors. You are welcome to post art of your character in the server if some else drew it, so long as you credit the artist and ensure they are comfortable with it being publicly shared!

06. Predatory Behavior. There is zero tolerance for any public or private behavior deemed predatory towards those within, or outside of, Stopping Tomorrow. If you are at the receiving end of behavior that is making you or a friend uncomfortable or makes you feel unsafe, please bring this to the attention of staff.

07. Negative Discussion. Please refrain from bringing negative discussion into Stopping Tomorrow's community regarding other creators or other groups/communities. Also please attempt to keep discussions regarding your feelings regarding politics, religion, and triggering world happenings limited to support channels and private chats.

ROLEPLAY

01. No meta-gaming. Keep all out-of-character (OOC) interactions and information separate from any in-character (IC) interactions and information.

02. No god-modding. You can only control your own character, and potentially their unique NPCs, and should not assume how any actions taken will affect another player's character, or NPCs, without the player's permission. This also includes including another player's character without their agreement. (ex. Your character picking up and removing an incapacitated character during a fight without asking their player first.)

03. Be aware of character ages and boundaries. Please use proper judgement regarding age gaps within romantic relationships, especially with crushes or romances for characters 18 months (1.5 years) old or younger. If it feels at all inappropriate or uncomfortable, do not pursue it. Also, keep in mind the boundaries of specific characters and their players.

04. Sensitivities and triggers. When writing, please be courteous and respectful of other Stopping Tomorrow members and readers by providing warnings for potentially triggering topics within your work. Whether it is highlighting text in a different color, posting a bold warning before certain paragraphs, and/or including it at the beginning of your post. (ex. TW: sibling death)

05. Consequences. IC actions will have potential IC consequences! Please be aware of in-game risks. If you want your character to be affected a specific way in a situation for plotting or development purposes, such as a self-sacrifice or selfish moment to appear in a Checkpoint, please DM a member of staff.
