Visitor Day : Get Ready!


-"Several boats come and go at the islands port, a lot of people step down with
their suitcases for the first time in Platform Island, they came from far away places.
They all came here to see a member from
this island"


...Visitor Day...

Event Starts - June 17
Event Ends - June 19

This friday Starts Visitor Day! You might be wondering whats Visitor Day?
Until now the only habitants on platform island are the main characters. Just as the name
says youll be able to bring another character (the visitor) to rp in the island.


Whats diferent about a regular Npc and a Visitor?
A regular npc is limited, as in being a main character, and having minor roles as being supportive to
whatever is happening on chats (like a waiter, a pet or being around with your
character ocasionally doing non imp
ortant things)

During visitor day , your visitor will be able to move around f
leely, being able to interact with other
members and other visitors. Of course your this does not m
ean you can do whatever..
since theres a few do and donts and advises we have to the p
roper use of a visitor.


PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW THESE ADVISES
We really dont want people causing trouble or upseting other
members during chat..
so please read this to prevent a mod intervention, and we dont want members saying the clasical
excuse "i didnt know i couldnt do that
" since we are mentioning the rules a lot.


YOU CAN ONLY BRING/USE 1 VISIT
OR
Since youll be still able to use your Main character in chat (giving you 2), we dont want the chat room to
be crowded making it unconfortable to rp or keep track of whats happening.
If theres 15 members on chat.. adding their visitors would mean 30
characters during rp.
We really dont want any confusions, and we might increase the
visitor number in the future
but for the moment please keep it
to 1.

AT RP CHAT..
As we mention before..
Using to many characters at the time will make things confu
sing, since it would be
very hard to keep up with the several characters from each person will make the
chat move incredibly fast, since many characters take a lot of space.

We suggest if you rp 1 characters at the time. Or you can rp both your Main character and
your
Visitor in the same sentence. This might sound confu
sing but its not if you
use
bricks or marks to point out where is the character.

SUGGESTION:
You can also add between "(.....)" What relation the visitor has with your character
To prevent people asking "whos that?" many times.

(unless you want to keep that as a secret and reveal it after)


Your Visitor can Interact with Other visitors.

Heres the diference between npcs, visitors can move around and rp with other characters
or visitors. Just remember to make sure the owner of the other visitor /character
wants to rp, jumping in and expecting them to includ
e you or follow
is a bit rude.
Remember you mention your main character ocasionally, since he/she is the reason your visitor is there.


Your visitor must be related to your character.
I think this is one of the most important rules.
The character you bring MUST KNOW your character.
It can be a family member, an old friend, an ex girl/boyfriend, a teammate, roomate,
co worker, his/her human trainer.. whoever! But its important that the Visitor knows
your character in some way.

Having random characters appear ( that have nothing to do with your characters ) is not permitted !



Whatever your visitors do is up to you (theres no plot to follow).
You can use this oportunity to work on your character, as in letting others know
a little bit more about him/her , or maybe theres something from his/past past
or a secret hes/shes hiding?
You are permitted to work on your own plot / backstory.

BASIC BEHAVIOR
We know some of you have some "interesting" prospects for visitors.
We would like to remind you the chat use is used by everybody, so please try to control them.
Keep the violence, swearing and other weird behaviors to a minimun.
Thank you.
