New, Important Roleplay and RMB rules

BIG CHANGES REGARDING RMB AND RP, PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS TELEGRAM, THANKS

Hello Labyrinth, I am announcing some very big changes to our roleplay and RMB. I will say the change and a brief overview. These changes are effective immediately, except the roleplay restart, in which we will have a bit of a transition period. If you have any questions fell free to tag, telegram or pm me. So lets get into them.

-Complete Roleplay restart
The Current roleplay is scrapped/archived, all aspects of the current roleplay, alliances, governements, everything is started fresh. Disregard every predjudice from the old roleplay, this is a new start for everyone. This is a big, but needed change

-Time Period: early industrial age
The timeframe will be mid 1800s to start, You can start with any technology found BEFORE 1840 (I will be checking and watching). Any new invention will be introduced ONLY by The Secretary of Cultural Affairs (or any other cabinet member with permission by the SCA) and/or the monarchy (Ashtie, Minos)

-Double Posting Ban
Starting immediately there will be no posts back to back, if you have something else you need to say, use the handy dandy edit button. You can only post again after someone else has typed a message, like if I say FLEX SEAL, I can not send another message until another member says something on the RMB. This rule will be enforced.

-Highly encourage substantial rp posts (ideally 3 sentence minimum, but will be allowable if it is a substantial post) and training
Short posts with no substance like "Ugosal's leader slaps Swiftlandia's leader" will not be allowed. We want to encourage meaningful, better roleplay like instead of the sentence before, do something like this "Adon attends a meeting in Swiftlandia, where they are to discuss trade plans. When Adon arrives he is not greeted by Phil, so he he walks to Phil's office and overhears him tell his assistant that he is going to rip off Ugosal. So when they meet face to face Adon slaps him across the face"(yes this situation would technically be godmodding, but this is a fictional example and I think you get my point). We also want to really begin encouraging and pushing the roleplay training for all nation participating in the roleplay.

-Formatting for in character
Before making a post relating to or about the roleplay you MUST preface it with something like "In Character" or "roleplay post". For example "In Character-Phil Swift travels to Moneygoodland to discuss plans for a new alliance.

-Encouraging all rp nations to go through roleplay training (soon)
We would like to encourage all roleplay nations to go through our roleplay training program

-Improved citizen reporting system
We would like to encourage citizens who are irritated at someone, see someone breaking the rules, etc. To report things to a moderator first, we want to limit fighting and rule breaking, by having everyone who has an issue to fell free to report it to a moderator at any time, we always want to be ready and willing to help.

-Moderators watching more carefully
We want to make sure that at least one modearator is able to be reached at pretty much any time. We are going to try our hardest to catch any potential issues before they go too far.

-New map
Yes we know this may be a controversial change, as we just added the second continent back and our current map is well liked, but to go along and make sure we are doing a full restart, a new map is most definitely necessary. The New Map is complete and will be open to claims shortly, I hope you enjoy it. One big thing we want to do better, is keep land gains and colonies realistic, so please keep this in mind, as the SoCA will be making sure all land gains stay realistic and reasonable.

-Land Gains will be tracked by score
In an effort to keep land gains and expansion fair and equal, I will be instituting a new system, in which there is a second version of the map is split into a grid, and owning the majority of land in a box counts as 1 point. If you accumulate a disproportional amount for points compared to your fellow nations, you can no longer gain land (until your score is within a similar score of another nations.

So that's all the changes for now, I will be sending the new rp map out through telegram and discord announcements very soon. If you have any questions feel free to tag, telegram or PM me! Long Live The Labyrinth!
