This is very likely to sound like I'm being mean. It is not intended that way,
it is sincerely said and well-intended.

Your reply to me sounded like you were talking to someone else. I find
your posts tend to be slippery to get a grip on. Maybe it's just me, but
I've noticed other folks having trouble grokking you.

You've got all these projects going, and having fun, that's cool. Have fun.

But I suspect that if you want to make real progress on this stuff, and
get lots of people on board, you're going to have to start communicating
in a way that doesn't sound like you're super high all the time.

:(

Having said that, this thing does sound like a good idea and I wish you well.

the sad part is that I'm very sober or else I'd give you some bonus xp.

I'd like to find a way to fit these ideas on templates, which would be a familiar format for people who were looking at the project to understand it.

Golden Rule of Media.

The Chaos Galaxy would like to encourage media as long as it doesn't infringe on another's copyrights, trademarks, intellectual properties, patents, etc. Permission should be given before any material that is not completely created by the author/artist is used in any way. This includes machinima, storyline, game art, etc. Some companies have publically given copyright notices to allow uses of their game materials under certain conditions and all these conditions should be honored. It is always best to ask them, never assume it is ok or "fair use".


How The Chaos Galaxy Works:


2. The Chaos Galaxy Players.

The Chaos Galaxy forums are made to encourage Forum Role Play (aka play by posts) between online games and players, utilizing multi game groups and multi game guilds though the collective links of new and existing online multiplayer games. We believe that this can help enhance the experience of gaming for such players, groups and games.

Multi game Groups and Multi Game Guilds are encouraged to fill out a template. These groups should have at least one member who visits the Chaos Galaxy forums on a regular basis. They should also try and have an account on at least one game on the Chaos Galaxy's Game List.

Game owners and dev teams may use these multi game groups to recruit for events in other online games on The Chaos Galaxy's Game List through the use of Forum Roleplay, Multi Game Quests and other forms of Multi Game Interaction. Players not affiliated with a group or guild are welcome to the Chaos Galaxy Merc Bar as well. These players are free to create their own template if they like or even form a group/guild of their own.

All we ask is that players and groups abide by the rules of the forum while in the forum, the rules of the online game while in the online game and anything agreed on inbetween. Basically the character is responsible for their own actions including abiding by the law and will agree to simular terms and conditions before joining.


3. The Chaos Galaxy Game List

The game owners who would like to list their Online Games on The Chaos Galaxy's Game List are encouraged to fill out a Chaos Galaxy Template. This lets players and groups know what to expect from the game world and how they can interact with it. Game owners are also encouraged to appoint a representative to the The Chaos Galaxy to encourage Multi Game Groups and players to interact with their game world. This can include recruiting players for their game, recruiting beta testers, promoting multi game quests in their world, in game events, role play and more. It is nessesary to recieve authorization from game owners/authorized representitive before adding an online game link to the Chaos Galaxy Game List.
