@ Meteo, I forgot exactly which part it was, but there was a little bit in your post that made me lol irl.I applaud.
orly? I'm curious now which part it was.
It's supposed to be a scene of intensely graphic and creative homicidal lunacy...not comedy. 
It's not even harsh tbh, in fact I may incorporate that into the main RP forum rules. If an RPer is AWOL without a word to anyone for two weeks, it's quite obvious they're not interested enough in participating in the RP, and thus game mods are authorized to remove that players character from the RP at their discretion. Good idea Channy.

The two weeks rule is quite reasonable, my other RP had it as well. So I can follow it here.

How so? Sierra tackling him down?
No, I PMed him prior to his post, saying I wanted to do that, so he had a heads up.
If that's what you wanted Sierra to do, you should control your character yourself and include that in your previous or next post. I'll have to write a tut on overlapping posts for character interaction. I'll let it go for now, but try to keep your characters' actions exclusive to your own posts, and if you feel you have to authorize a fellow RPer to control your character for a bit, make it known in the RP development thread so that everyone knows it's permissible and not outright god-modding.

Well I didn't think it was all that big of a deal to alert the rest of the group, considering nobody else had brought it up. He and I had planned it ahead of time through PM, and with the way he handled it by initiating it and speaking to Sierra (which I thought he handed well tbh because he didn't God-mod all that much) it gave more for me to work with in my next post.

Ya rly. But.
I reread it twice and I can't find it! Of course, I've got a twisted sense of humour so I suppose a lot of the things in there made me laugh internally, but still... it was only one or two words and the way you put them together. I dunno.
Also, that tut is much, muchly needed - elsewise, how are characters ever to interact?
@ChannyNag, this is where I have been: writing my post. XD It's all dolled up and absolutely, monstrously hugeish, just the way you like 'em.
Seriously. I overkilled it so hard~

Like Sierra, you're just the sweetest thing.
All these compliments might go to my head if I'm not careful. Seriously though, thanks so much. <3 Twenty five minutes, really?! Shit, that IS long!

:3 Oh why thank you.
And don't worry about it being too long, I'm just a slow reader is all.

You're ever so welcome~ No, no, I tried to reread it and it took me about twenty. XD
And by-the-by, I do so love the Dessie theme you've got going on with your sig and such!

Alright, out with it Jen, you're not REALLY 15 years old are you?
Your post was simply amazing. I loved your analogies, your visualization of the scene, descriptions and vocabulary, and most of all your dialogue (srsly, even the peons who get slaughtered have great lines!) Your character has such an extraordinary wealth of personality, and virtually the polar opposite of every other character in the RP. Your post was indeed one of the longest I've EVER seen (probably about as long as my first Relek post if not longer), but it didn't seem lengthy at all while reading it because it was so immensely entertaining and engaging. That is what I call flawless writing, very well done Jen.
Perhaps no one else noticed it or read it yet to notice it, but as the Director I feel I'm obligated to point it out. Allowing other RPer's permission to control your character is sort of a gray area in god-modding regulation. I'll pass it as an acceptable loophole for the time being, however I'd rather everyone steer away from that method. Ideally, the only one making moves for a character should be that characters' RPer, and only them. You may still plan how you want your characters to interact, but the actions and dialogue should be separate with respect to each role player and their character.
The idea behind it is quite simple. The beginning of your post is written to 'overlap' the post of the RPer whose character you intend to interact with. You quote (not with actual quote tags but rather integrated as part of your post) any actions or dialogue from that character in your own post, and then respond to it with your own actions and/or dialogue. That RPer then follows suit and quotes your response, and subsequently responds. I'm going to postpone the rules a bit more to write this tut tomorrow because it seems it'll help a few of you out. I've used the system myself in every RP I've been involved with and it works well to effectively eliminate any need to control another RPer's character and thus avoid god-modding of that sort.
