Welcome to Sea, a modern role-play
sim in the Florida keys inspired by the movie Bright. In order to make
sure that everyone has fun in our Sim, we have a few simple rules to
follow.
You’re an adult-
You do not stop being an adult when you log into Second Life®.
You do not stop being an adult when you log into Second Life®.
We should not have to police
you.
The people who built this place are here to role-play!
Policing adults takes away from our role-play time and makes us grumpy;

you would not like us when we are grumpy
All players are expected to conduct
themselves according to
Second Life’s Linden Labs Community Standards and Terms of Service
No hurtful speech.
A general catch-all rule. If you’re not sure whether something might cause offense to someone else, just don’t say it. “In character” is not an acceptable excuse for this kind of stuff.
Everyone
feeling safe, welcome and having fun takes priority.
Mature, not Explicit.
We understand that adult content (violence, cursing, romance, etc.) is a great way to role-play character motivations and development.

We are totally fine with a degree of mature
content, but keep the really gritty stuff in private messages. Let’s be
tactful.
Locked Doors mean do not enter- just like real life!
Homes, whether with or without locked doors, should only be entered at the owner's invitation
If you need to enter someone's house for any RP reason without an IC (In Character) invitation, first get prior permission OOC (Out of Character) from the homeowner.

Out Of Character (OOC)
Out Of Character (OOC)
We do NOT do drama unless it
is in character.
All character speech should be in
speech marks, and actions in italics.
If you wish to speak OOC even in ((ooc brackets)), kindly
take it to group chat or IMs.
OOC in open chat is disruptive to RP - even with the best
intentions - and that is why we create groups and have friends lists.
Our group list -Kill the Messenger- is for open role-play or Out of Character Chat.

Please feel free to post your RP there to let folks know
you're in the sim and wanting to RP!
Since we are all friends and are playing together, if there is an issue between you and another player, resolve it! We trust you. (RE: wearing the grown-up pants)
Exceptions: Griefers, kill on sight, please. Yes, use that
cool magic HUD you've been dying to test that isn't allowed anywhere else to do
it! Just don't crash the sim. Sure, make up some outlandish battle story to
justify your actions in rp. Killing griefers should be FUN.
(Just remember to avoid actions which could get *you*
reported to LL for abuse.)
Every rule you've ever heard about regarding metagaming/god-moding/exploiting grey areas/being superman/woman etc. also apply here. If you’re not 100% positive it's allowed here, ask first.
Whining and complaining about the sim, the rules and/or its players is a sure way to get yourself kicked from the sim. If you are unhappy with the role-play, then address those issues with a Sim Keeper to resolve them or find another place to role-play that makes you happy.

Second Life has 1000's of role-plays
out there!
Life is too short to waste your time and ours if this sim is not a
good fit for you.
Feel free to AVOID people who you do not get along with. No one needs to know you have rp-banned so and so. Just find reasons to avoid them or ignore them if you cannot play together.
