majordomo | Community rules:

1. No applications required. Just join the communities

thewildways_ooc and feel free to post!

2. Please remember to tag your entries! Simply tag your entries with canon: seriesnamehere. We also have a pairings tags system. While pairing tags are not required for posts, they may help you find what you're looking for.

3. You must be 18+ years old in order to play in this community!

thewildways is intended for playing characters in a sexual environment and situations. In order to cover our butts on this one, we ask that everyone have a disclaimer in their journal profiles stating that they are 18+. If yours does not, the mods may contact you to request one. If you do not comply, your journal may be removed from the community.

4. This community is a dressing room where people can practice their writing in our general setting. This means that you should expect to run into all kinds of characters, including multiple versions of canon characters, original characters or even AU versions. Don't be surprised if another player's interpretation differs drastically from yours. That's what dressing rooms are for.

5. Wank and OOC drama are not acceptable! If you have issues with another player that you cannot work on your own, please contact the mods and relay the situation to us. We'll help you as much as we can. Disruptive IC actions such as godmoding or bringing OOC issues into IC are unacceptable. If you encounter any problems of such nature, please contact us with evidence.

6. In regards to underage characters: depiction of children in fiction is legal and protected by the freedom of speech. However, keep in mind that a lot of people have issues with underage characters in sexual situations. We strongly recommend that in cases where you'd rather not age up your character under the age of 13-14, the post is placed under a cut with a warning for potentially triggering content.

7. On that topic, we request that you please LJ-cut any post with potentially offensive material and include basic information in the cut text, such as generalized trigger warnings and so on. I.E: non-con trigger warning, self-harm warning, etc.

8. Respect your fellow players! Keep in mind that because this community deals with sexual content, it may touch on topics that some people find personal or triggering. Respect others' opinions and wishes, and don't be forceful! Open disrespect of others may get you removed from the community.

9. We think this should go without saying, but in case it needs to be spelled out: We have absolutely no qualms about banning someone who is a known, admitted, or convicted sex offender.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact us here.
