What is the World Crafter's Guild?
9 years ago
General
Let's begin this group by discussing the topic of world crafting itself. More importnatly, what makes good world crafting.
World crafting is a time-honored art of creating fictional worlds... whether it be for stories, comics, video-games, or just for fun! It's a very difficult hobby for newcomers, and requires a great deal of love for creation. This group (hopefully) will be a community to help newcomers and veterans alike to find inspiration, resources, and people to bounce ideas off of!
Finally, we would like to set some ground rules.
1) Let's focus on being constructive. There is no place in this guild for trolls, people attacking other people's settings and ideas. On the flip side, we won't accept settings intentionally designed to be offensive, inconsiderate, or mean-spirited towards a group of people or people. TROLLS WILL BE BLOCKED WITHOUT WARNING... period.
2) We're not here for ripoff settings. This Guild focuses entirely on producing new, original settings. It's okay to draw inspiration from another setting (let's face it, we all do it, from the average fan-fiction writer to Hideyo Kojima) but if your setting is blatantly plagiarizing something, "that's no good," as a blue hedgehog might say. :3
3) Don't be a douche. The golden rule of most religions and civilizations applies here. Play nice folks. X3
4 ) Have fun! World crafting is a fun and awesome hobby, never forget that it's meant to be fun! ^^ Feel stressed out or bored? Just relax and take some time off. We all get a little overwhelmed at times, if something's really troubling you on a project, ask us, we may be able to help you out! :D
