how to join the global network
we’ll keep it simple:
• ooc usernames
• a backdated friends only post
• a backdated contact post
• at least 5 facts about your character and location
• 2 examples friends locked in your journal or drop boxed to the mod journal
wire is optional and we’re not going to police what you do on wire but we do ask that you be mindful of the group chats that you create and don’t use these as a way to exclude members. please note, if we don't see you active on the fp yoi will be up for override despite your interactions on wire.

updates
we encourage creativity at global. updates can take any form so there’s no minimum word count.

you must post something in your journals every two weeks.

if you post a traditional update we ask that you make the effort to reply to the people that comment you!

if you’re removed for not updating on time you are at risk of being overridden.

there will be activities and we ask that you take part in at least one per month so that we know you’re still active.

hiatuses, overrides & extensions
life gets in the way so we’re not too strict on the rules of hiatuses. we’d ask that you don’t ask for more than four weeks after your last update but if you need longer than this we’re understanding. no need to tell us why! but if we see that you’re abusing this and still being active then we may allow an override.

as we don’t have a word count on updates, extensions will be granted for up to an additional week only.

if you don’t post an intro within three days you’ll be up for override. if your friends list is more than two weeks out of date we’ll allow an override. if you have any questions about whether a member is active and can be overridden, drop us a comment.

harassment and ooc blurring
we’re not here to baby you but we also won’t accept any harassment. if you’re found to be harassing any member of the community, you’ll removed. if you have any ooc issues with a member of the community please comment the mods about this. this isn’t gotham, we’re not here for vigilante justice.

we also don’t want ooc cliques forming at the comm. everyone is welcome so you should keep your behavior ic. if the drama is ic, by all means keep the drama! but remember to keep this in character. when it comes to ooc behavior, everyone should be kind. so basically: don't be a dick ooc or we'll remove you.

anon commenting is disabled as default when you register a journal so we suggest you keep this setting.

extras
we encourage members to arrange extras for the community but please let us know what they are! you can run these yourself but we just want a heads first.

if you have any ideas for extras you would like to mods to implement please let us know!
