Lords Of The Underworld Rules
Recruitment:
You are to be over 18 to write in this group.
We recruit original characters and species. To qualify for
LOU you would need to actually write. No one is required to be an award winning
novelist, just write. We do not follow
specific series etc. So you are free to
portray your character as you wish. Once you choose a face claim/name, that
specific face claim will be reserved for YOUR character alone. In this way we
stop the possibility of mirrors in the group. Yes, you may have more than one
character in the group. In the strict provision that you do not abandon any of
your accounts! So if you cannot juggle more than one? Don’t create them. We are
more for quality than quantity. We will be more than content with a hand full of writers that actually write.
NO ONE needs to know who or which writer is behind which
account! It really isn’t anyone’s business.
Respect others’ privacy!
Open Roles:
Will be posted in group blogs for you to take a look at.
Activity:
We are aware of everyone having a life and being busy or
driving other accounts. Yet … Try to not abandon your account. Interaction and addition between members is
very important. The secret to the success of any group is the activity of the
members.
We will post solos on the feed, all you need to do is send
it to the Home Page and request that we post it.
Inactivity:
If you have not logged into your group account within two
weeks, you will receive a message querying your silence. Life happens and time
cannot be controlled along with everyone living scattered across the globe in
different time zones. We understand this. Though knowledge is always better
than assumption.
DO NOT hound other members for replies. Always keep in mind
they are also writing with others or writing solos/replies. Be patient!
Social Outreach:
Group business is to remain exactly that! We will have a
discord set up for the group (if the majority seeks it). Respect yourself and
other members at all times.
Brand:
All members are required to add the tags ‘LOU’ in their
name.
Drama:
None of this will be tolerated outside storylines. DO NOT bring your hate for previous groups,
persons or other sites to LOU! One warning – then you will be asked to leave.
Respect the relationships within the group. DO NOT try to cause trouble between
two writers who are mated or have a set connection. This is strictly
forbidden. If A is with B on one account
and with C on another account? It’s not your business and has nothing to do
with you or anyone else except the parties involved in the union. Do not try to delegate or monopolize anyone in this group!
Cyberbullying/Slights/Shading:
LOU will not allow any bullying toward any member in the
group. We are all for the “live and let
live” policy. If you are reported to the admins by another member for bullying
– you will receive ONE warning to halt your advances. If to no avail, you will
be banned from LOU.
God Modding:
This one should be known but we feel the need to stress the
importance of this. No telling others how to play their characters or how to
write or deciding when or where their character will meet its demise WITHOUT
permission.
Disputes Amongst
Members:
Once again, we do not do casting of shade upon another member or user on
EOS or any other site! If an issue arises with another member in the group.
Bring it to the attention of the admins. No attacking status updates or
comments are allowed to be posted. If you are upset? Take a break, take a
walk…do whatever instead of writing something you may regret later or which
will cause a bigger problem within the group. If this does not succeed, the
admins will sort the issue out as diplomatically as possible. Under no
circumstance is the rest of the site to see that there is an issue. If there is
an issue with another USER on the site – send a personal report to the admins
of the site.
Banishment:
You may at the admins discretion receive a warning. If you
continue to cause issues you will be banished from the group without warning.
If you are found to be posting paedophilia, plagiarized content/writing or are
antagonizing in any way you will also be banished.
LOU Admins

Lord Shade Marquis
(Patriarch)
No disrespecting of admins. They will respect you, so you
will respect them. There will be no leniency offered in the regard of this
offense.
