I've also had to issue two final warnings. Things like this are never fun to do as a GM, and make for a real downer day. But to maintain the integrity of the game and look out for the playerbase as a whole, they must be made. In order to prevent future events like this from happening. I'd like to reiterate a few of the rules that were broken:<br/><br/><strong>1) Posting rate is a minimum of once per week from a player's last post with that character.</strong> (Do NOT pressure them to post before this grace-period).<br/><br/><strong>2) The Co-GMs exist and were chosen for a reason. They understand the direction of the game, and are in place to make sure all players in a given thread are a part of the story and everyone is enjoying the experience. When they make a decision (even if you don't like it) do NOT argue with them or cause them grief. What they say GOES.</strong> If you have an issue with your resident GM, bring it up to me and I will address it. This should NOT be a rule I will ever have to repeat again.<br/><br/><strong>3) Any interaction or dialogue with another character must be tagged in the header.</strong> (The flipside to this is that if YOUR character is tagged in someone else's post you MUST read and react to it in some manner - or at least communicate with that player as to why you are NOT reacting to their post via PM). This is slightly subjective, but if I (and several others) can read a post and get a clear picture of it with actions and dialogue that warrants acknowledgement, then you have no excuse not to. Re-read it if you must, PM the player if you are unsure, but NEVER assume! It is WAY easier to do the above than it is to rewrite, edit, or go through revisions; and of course player/GM conflict is the worst-case scenario. Let's avoid all of that by being good readers and making sure to include the others in our thread in our posts. It sucks to be left out, and it sucks even worse to be written over or completely ignored. I will not tolerate ANY of that!</div><br/>Thanks,<br/>Veluux
