text-align: justify;"><b>Posting Schedule: </b>A minimum of <u>one</u> post every two weeks is required, with preference being at least one post <u>weekly.</u> If at any point your circumstances change due to life getting busy, health, work, holidays, or if you have simply just lost interest, please let me know. If we do not hear from you within two weeks (posting or OOC), please acknowledge that the role play will likely move on without your character and you will be required to pick up the pieces based on where you left off.<br/>
<br/>
<b>Posting Order: </b>There will be <u>no</u> posting order for this story. However, please do not write more than 2-3 posts (depending on the scene) if someone has not posted for a week. We want to be courteous and remember that not everyone can rapid fire.<br/>
<br/>
<b>Smut:</b> Smut is permitted in this story, however, please keep the scenes short and direct. This is a group role play, and no one will need to read 5-6 posts of two characters getting it on if it's not pertinent to the story. Feel free to grab your partner and continue it privately through PMs!<br/>
<br/>
<b>Plotting: </b>Please try to be as active as possible in the OOC thread when it comes to decision making. This is a group experience, so group input is required. In saying that, please speak up if something makes you uncomfortable or pushes on your boundaries. We won't know unless you say something.<br/>
<br/>
<b>Limits: </b>As a general rule, this role play will follow the guidelines and rules for Black Dahlia. Additional limits are as follows: no scat, watersports, godmodding (without permission), character death (without discussion beforehand), rape, underage characters. Also <u>no</u> pushing the boundaries of other role players in the group - you will be kicked from the group if you do so.<br/>
<br/>
<b>Courtesy: </b>We all want to have fun - so let's keep things light, fun and enjoyable. Please remember to take no offense to the characters themselves. They are fictional people and do not represent the person writing them.<br/>
