Grammatical Improvements
Alright, so I was perusing some of the old RPs and such like I always do, when I noticed something. There is a large number of times in which we are posting one liners, seriously long run-off sentences and fragments of a sentence. Also some people would put faces, such a :3 or >.> literally within the text itself. The capital letter of a sentence isn't capitalized, or there isn't a single period for a whole five sentences, or none at all! While this was more occurring in the older (1-2 years older) posts. However, I still see it happening a lot now. I understand that this a site for people of all skills; but there is a difference between skill and literacy. And so, as Pack Advisor and Site Admin, I issue forth these rules for grammatical improvements amongst us.
1 ) Always capitalize the first letter of every sentence.
2 ) Always punctuate the ending of every sentence.
3 ) Never use faces within an RP text; they belong in the chat box or within OOC parenthesis.
4 ) No less then a full length one line in a post.
Bad example:
He danced around.
Good example:
He danced around to the heavy beating music, sweat beaded down his face soon after her began to dance about.
5 ) If you post on a mobile device, and get basic grammar wrong; return on a computer and edit the post.
6 Stay consistent with the point of view for a role play.
7 ) Try to become more detailed in posts in order to increase post length.
8 ) Do not substitute a number in numeral form instead of typing the word out.
9 ) Use proper spelling.
Thank you, I may add more rules should the need arise. Please try your best to abide by them. -Admin; Hiddenfaith

Re: Grammatical Improvements
Her username use to be "Khora" instead of "HiddenFaith." So, she probably just is use to saying Khora. I know I've caught myself almost calling her "Khora" in the past, instead of "HiddenFaith."
AND, Yes Hidden! I shall not slack off on posts.

Re: Grammatical Improvements
I know that, it just seems kind of odd. And, by the way, if anyone's going to be following these rules it's going to be me; she can see me in real life, and believe me when I say that you do not want to get on her bad side.
