TO ALL CADETS (current members see the note at the bottom)
I am aware that some of you are currently going through the academy, and at the same time you have been told to report to the mission. This in itself is fine, however it has come to my attention through reading previous posts that there are a few basic rules and ways of doing things that have not been explained to you or you are not aware of.
With that in mind here are a few doâs, donât and hints for making yours and everyone elseâs experience that little bit easier and better.
1. Posts should be no shorter than 200 words (Excluding time stamps and notes)
2. Regular posting is encouraged, however let others have a chance to get in there too.
3. Joint Posting â this is where two or more characters create ONE post together and then it is posted up by ONE member, making the storyline/conversation flow better and easier to read. The forum boards or MSN or something similar are helpful for this, the forums allow you to save a post in progress so you donât have to be online at the same time to do this and each member can reply in their own time before posting it into the mission.
As it has already been pointed out by Admiral Malloway, PLEASE do not move the time forward a great deal as things are in the pipelines.
Also already stated by Ethan Trane, Humans are not telepathic so please do not use it unless your species is known to have it such as Betazoids etc.
N.B. AS FOR EXISTING MEMBERS, YOU SHOULD KNOW ALL THIS...I HAVE ALREADY RE-ITERATED THE MINIMUM WORD COUNT IS 200, THEREFORE ANY NOW UNDER 200 WILL BE DELETED AND YOU WILL BE MESSAGED STATING AS SUCH.
