I'd just like to start off by saying that nobody is in trouble and nobody has even complained to me about anything. When building a roleplaying forum it's just easy to forget a detail here-or-there. Honestly, I thought they were already part of the rules and people were just ignoring them, but that was clearly my mistake.
First of all, the definition of godmodding has been updated to include hitting someone without giving them the chance to dodge or respond in any way. This helps prevent any feelings of unfairness. On the other hand, if a character continually 'dodges' or 'blocks' something they probably shouldn't be able to, it's unfairness in the same way. As always, if you feel anyone is breaking this rule, please bring it to my attention.
Secondly, unless specifically stated in the title or first post of the thread, you really shouldn't join an active thread unless you've spoken to at least one already-involved party. A lot of times one-on-one threads can be used to develop plot and characters' relationships, which is somewhat harder to do when another random user jumps into the middle of it.
If you have any questions about either of these rule changes, or if you think they could be more clear, please feel free to send me a message.
Edit: Oh, also added a line about trying to keep the posting order clear. I feel like that's relatively self-explanatory.

We're also going to experiment with expanding the amount of active RPs a person is allowed to be involved in. We've only boosted it up to two, and if this works, we can keep it. If it fails, we will change back to one RP at a time.
