Here's another idea for a guideline which I feel strongly about:
Quote:
- 7.) I think we also need another guideline which protects the characters we've created from anything drastic/irreversible being done to them without our permission. IE: killed off, crippled, sent into another dimension from which there is no return, et cetera. This kind of thing can really screw up plans for one's own character, irregardless of whether those plans are short range or long range. If someone want to make a drastic change to a character not created by himself, it should be a common courtesy to check with the person who created the character in a PM or in chat. Most of us do that already, but we all know it hasn't always been done. This wouldn't apply to characters whose creators are long gone, of course.
