Because there's been some question, and since everyone has their own ideas on what certain formatting means in gameplay posts, we've decided to implement a set of Posting Rules, and would like to see players adopt this format in their game play. If you have questions, or complaints, let us know.

---

Narration: Done in third person, past tense, plain text, with bold and italics for emphasis ONLY.

Ex: Scott went to the hangar and climbed into the Blackbird. When he got there, he realized someone was already waiting for him!

*****

Dialog: Plain text, with bold and italics for emphasis ONLY, surrounded by " "

Ex: "What the hell are you doing here?" Scott asked Magneto.

*****

Thoughts: Italicized or plain text without " "

Ex: Scott looked at Magneto, sitting calmly in the Co-Pilot's seat. Obviously, I'm going to have to check my security systems, Scott thought to himself.

*****

Quotes: Italicized or bold

Magneto narrowed his eyes, coldly. "Cyclops, we have to talk," he said.

*****

Telepathy: Plain text or italicized, surrounded by :: ::

Ex: Opening his rapport to Jean, Scott said, silently, ::Jeannie, scan the grounds, we have a security breach.::

*****

Translations: Plain text surrounded by < "" >

Outside, Quicksilver paced the grounds, muttering to himself in Roma, <"This is clearly a bad idea...">

*****

Any other examples or concerns, ask, and we'll add them to this formatting.

And, remember Colored Text is NEVER allowed, with the sole exception of Deadpool, because that is a canon thing.
