Shinobi World is an RP club open for anyone to join and have fun creating their characters and RPing with other members. However, we consider this a "hardcore RP club" and have certain standards that active members are expected to adhere to. What this means is that good literacy and posts that focus on quality are preferred over short, quick posts that are commonly seen in some other RP clubs. This is not for casual players. The members are expected to put enough time and effort into their experience here.

The minimum expectations when it comes to writing are, but not limited to: Coherence, legible spelling and grammar, separating paragraphs where necessary, and distinction between actions and dialogue.

We recognize that no one is perfect and has different styles of writing, and that is perfectly fine. New members that are not use to the way we write will be given time to expand and improve on their writing skills. No one will be asked to leave the club, but if you have a far more simplistic writing style that doesn't adhere to our basic expectations, you are less likely to be asked to join an RP further down the line. Please try to be flexible and have a mind open to change. We're not asking for you to show award-winning quality writing or several paragraphs with each post, just something that is good enough for everyone to enjoy RPing with you.

Here is an example of a short, fairly average post that is perfectly acceptable:

As his chakra continues to flow an alternate way, more clouds gather in the sky, darkening the sky. Thunder now starts booming and some flashes appear in the clouds. Then, he formed a few hand seals and slapped his hands together.

"Suiton: Stormy Blockade."

A wave of water starts falling from the sky, about to converge all of them. Taizen draws his Ninjato from behind him and jumps up into the wave of water. He focused his chakra into his feet to help him surf up the wave and keep a good distance away from the two.


And as for an example of a post that will likely result in one being ignored if someone is unwilling to change their style in the long run:

*gets 2 the villige and looks aound*

If you feel you are not up to the expectations of this club, then I suggest you try another one that you are more comfortable being active in, such as Shinobi Legend, Way of the Shinobi, and The Truth of the Shinobi. These clubs may suit your preferred style, but we here in Shinobi World pride ourselves in being the most active Naruto RP club on MAL. If you want to become an active and known member like the rest of us and don't quite write the same amount and style we do, please take the time to learn from us and improve on your skills.
