Battle Arena Rules and Guide Line:
- No Power Gaming/God Modding - A player can be described as a powergamer if he or she presumes or declares that his or her own action against another player character is successful without giving the other player character the freedom to act on his or her own prerogative.
- No Meta Gaming - A player's use of real-life knowledge concerning the state of the game to determine their character's actions, when said character has no relevant knowledge or awareness under the circumstances.
- Be Respectful - Attacks on writers is absolutely intolerable. Respect other writers and what they are trying to do. Don't be a jerk.
- Post Cutting - Know the time and place to cut another writer's post short. Be respectful and respond accordingly. The Battle Arena Staff are writers too; we understand that sometimes a response to an early action of a post may negate everything else in the post, but it shouldn't become commonplace that everything a writer is trying to do with their character becomes "all for naught."
- Be Descriptive and Clear - Ensure your post are detailed enough that your opponent can comprehend what exactly your character is doing. If you are going to use a move that would require a preparation or charge time, be sure to give it that proper preparation. For example a Spear of Midnight Black or Force Storm will take more time and preparation to prepare than a Force Push or Choke.
- If you're unsure of what your opponent is doing, please contact them and ask. PMing your judge should be a last resort. In the event that your opponent is actually rude and a jerk out of character, that would be cause for a last resort. If the issue does not resolve civilly between you and the other writer, allow the arbitrating party to mediate. Do not seek a resolution by other means. The battle arena staff is here for you. We're neutral, and no one here is going out of their way to screw you over. The judge's word is final. Except in extremely rare scenarios, there is no cause for, nor will you be given a re-judgment.
- Be creative and have fun.
