Official Rule Change
We three mods talked over the poll results and after taking everything into consideration, saw it best not to "pick" one side over the other. Our community is obviously pretty divided on the issue, so we thought it best to make the closest thing to a compromise as we could. Taking some suggestions from the "delete it" voters, we came up with a new rule to replace the old one that we hope everyone can be happy with!
It is as follows:
▶ Fancharacters who are involved with any canon character(s) romantically, related to them in any fashion, or closely-knit friends with them, need to have more to their backstory/personality than just their involvement with said canon character(s). Basically, we want to see fancharacters who stand on their own merits, who can talk about things other than X canon character(s), and don't fall into the Mary-sue trope.
We also edited these general rules to be clearer and more concise:
▶ Game transplants and previous CR are allowed. PSL transplants are also allowed as long as they don't break any of the above rules.
▶ Effect rooms can not be entirely new settings/places or contain massive set-pieces/monsters. They can, however, be filled with puppies.
▶ Basically, don't be a dick and don't make anybody else feel uncomfortable.
▶ Be considerate of your fellow muns and don't harass anybody for any reason.
▶ No god-modding, infomodding, and etc.
And we'd like to remind everybody about this rule~
▶ Make sure to tag entries with the series your character is from. This includes when you post or comment on an entry.
As usual, if you have any questions feel free to ask!
