This message is for all new members and role-players on our site, based on the fact that I keep receiving messages about this issue despite the fact that it is clearly addressed in our role-play profile template. Hopefully this will clear the issue up and make things easier to find for our newer members and role-players.

Some of you have come from other role-playing websites before joining The Star Wars RP. It is likely that a large percentage of those websites required you to wait for administrative approval on your role-play profiles before you were allowed to jump into role-play threads or training. Here at The Star Wars RP, we do not believe in doing that. You do not, I repeat NOT, have to wait for approval on a profile before role-playing, as we do not approve or reject profiles.

That said, we will require you to make changes if necessary. You will often find members commenting on your profile with constructive criticism with the goal of making your profile better. Do not be dismayed by this, as everyone is just trying to help. Unless an objection is found to be completely unnecessary by other members, we require you to make these changes, as they will likely be based on your lack of knowledge regarding how our website operates. Again, don’t fret. Just make the necessary changes.

Should you refuse to make these changes, then we will forbid you from using the character, although we have literally only had to do that once in the four year history of this website. The criticism given to you is going to be based on our desire to have more realistic role-playing characters as opposed to other unprofessional websites with a “pretty much everything goes” mindset. Therefore, we thank you for correcting the objections and creating a better character.

I hope that this clears up any confusion anyone had.
