*Literacy is a big thing with me. The occasional accident is fine, as we are all just human and can't be perfect. However, make it a habit and you're on your way to being deleted.

*I prefer para. Don't count on me ever replying to a one-liner unless I am in an amazing mood. If you can keep me entertained with a multi-para, you are on your way to becoming one of my favorite people.  

*Do NOT God-mode my character. A very good friend of mine OOC wrote the series he appears in and I know for a fact you haven't read it, so do not ever pretend to know Jakob more than I do.

*Do NOT tell me what my character can and can't do, or what he will or won't do. Like I said, you don't have the knowledge to back up anything you try.

*I like to RP in the third person. I don't like seeing - or * to clarify actions. I RP as if I'm writing a book. (If we're just getting to know each other, I'll RP first person, but once we're past the greetings and such, I will change it. If you don't go along, I will stop talking to you.)

* Jakob and I are not the same person, so don't get mad at me for something Jake says or does  (yes, I am aware I control him, but I play him as he was created).

* I do prefer to RP through messages, as it is easier for me, but I'll cooperate if you RP through comments. I don't keep all the comments people send me, only the ones I like. However, if it takes more than a day for me to reply to your comment (and I haven't told you my reply will be delayed) it is likely I didn't hit "send comment" the second time, so remind me and I'll get back to you. But if you're an ass about it, consider our RP over.

*I don't deal with idiots. Incest, rape, abuse. If you put up with any of those through your character, I will delete you as a friend. Got it? Yes, Jakob comes from a dark background, but that was not in an RP, that's in the books themselves.

*I don't care if our opinions differ on numerous things RL, if you start arguing with me and trying to make me change my mind, I will delete you.

*I don't add just to have a high number of friends. Either talk to me or get deleted

*If your character can turn into an animal, well that's awesome for you. But do NOT become an animal for any more than ONE reply to me. If your character is still in animal form by the second reply, and doesn't have the ability to talk, I will let you know that  you don't know how to RP properly and that I will be deleting you. Even if they can talk, there better be a damn good reason as to why they're still an animal.

*If you are RPing as a character from a TV show, book, or movie and I see that you have completely changed their character (turned them bi, lesbian, or gay) I will not  RP with you; you have to be pretty damn special for me to actually do so. For example. if you are a Twilight RPer and have changed who they are dating (aka instead of Alice with Jasper, she's now with Emmett or someone and so on), I will also not RP with you.

* If you see these lovely marks //, that means I am talking OOC. So, when you don't see them, that means it's Jakob talking. Please don't be that person who thinks creator and character are one in the same and get pissy RL over something Jake did.

*The name is Jakob. Not Jacob and not Jake unless you are one of his best friends. But how about you wait for me to tell you that you are before just assuming the two characters are close.

*I do work RL from 5am-1pm, Arizona time (look it up if you want to know our time difference). I don't reply while at work. I may open messages and read them so I can think through how I'd like to respond when I get home, but you will not get a reply until after 1pm (or, if I have enough time before work, you might get one before 5am). 

*I can not be here ALL the time, so just be patient with me and I will return the favor when you need it.
