CWF Rules
1. Character Selection/Switching
To become a member of CWF, contact a member of staff via a Personal Message (PM). To view who is in charge, direct your attention to the CWF Staff thread.
When you have chosen your desired character(s), there will be a 45 day contract agreement. If you drop or switch your character(s) within this time frame, you must wait the full 45 days to join up again. For example, if you join CWF and drop the character after 20 days, you must wait a further 25 days before you will be allowed to join again.
2. Strike System
The strike system will be a little different in CWF this time. It provides CWF members with a few opportunities to prove to us that if you've broken a rule in the past, it won't be a reoccurring trend. To view whether you have a strike to your name, scroll to the bottom of this thread.
A. If you receive 1 strike, there will be no ban. If you receive a 2nd strike, there will be no ban, but you are on thin ice. If you receive a 3rd strike, you are banned from CWF. It is to the discretion of the Owner(s) when you will be allowed to return to CWF, and this comes through the removal of 1 strike.
B. If you return from a ban and break another rule after only having 1 strike lifted, you will again be banned from CWF.
C. If you do not break a CWF rule for a period of time that is again under the discretion of the Owner(s), a strike will be lifted.
D. The general punishment for breaking a CWF rule is just 1 strike, but if the Owner(s) deem it to be severe, it is likely you will receive a 2nd strike for your actions.
3. Posting
In CWF, we do what is referred to as "trash talking". Basically, you and your opponent have a back-and-forth argument as to why you will be victorious in your match. It's quite simple, but if you'd like to learn more, feel free to read through the various trash talking threads in CWF, or even ask members for advice.
A. If you pick up your character(s) and do not post for a match or send in a promo asked from you via the weekly brand preview after 2 weeks, you will receive 1 strike and will be cut as your character.
B. In a multi-man match, which ranges from Triple Threats and above, you may not post then immediately post after just 1 opponent has. You must wait until everybody has posted before you may post again, unless a certain order has been specified by your Head Writer(s). If you break this rule, it is under the discretion of the Owner(s) whether you shall receive 1 strike or not.
C. There is no posting length in CWF, but if your opponent has posted short, then the considerate thing to do is to do the same. Some members may have the ability to post long, but length isn't a factor when deciding who wins a match, rather it is the quality of your posts. If you break this rule, it is under the discretion of the Owner(s) whether you shall receive 1 strike or not.
4. Multi-Character Privileges
They are exactly what they are, a privilege. They are a big responsibility and are not easy to pull off, and in CWF we allow no-one 2nd character privileges at this time.
5. Leave of Absence (LOA)
If you are unable to post as your character(s) due to real life commitments, or if you would just like a break from trash talking, please contact the Head Writer(s) for your brand(s) or the Owner(s). Only do this if you will be absent for at least 2 weeks as it provides the Head Writer(s) with the opportunity to write your character off the show until you return.
A. If you do not contact a Staff member of your absence, and as a result do not post in any form for 2 weeks, you will be deemed to have broken rule 3A. The specified punishment will apply.
B. If you inform Staff that you will not be able to post as of a certain date, you are still expected to post until that date. For example, if you inform Staff of your absence on a Tuesday, but it doesn't come into effect until Sunday, you're still expected to post until Sunday. There is no punishment for this; rather it's just common courtesy to your opponents and writers.
C. If you specify that you're absent for a long period of time, which could range from 3 months or longer, it is common courtesy to drop your character(s) and allow someone else to play them. If you wish for us to hold onto your character(s) while you're absent, we will, but if you're absent for a further week after the return date, it is to the discretion of the Owner(s) whether or not you remain as your character(s).
6. Complaints
If you have any complaints or concerns regarding anything CWF related, please contact an Owner via a Private Message.
A. There is to be no public complaining or abusing of any CWF member. If your offense is deemed to be light, it is under the discretion of the Owner(s) whether you shall receive 1 strike or not. If your offense is deemed to be severe, your punishment ranges from 2 strikes to 3 strikes, which may mean a ban from CWF.
B. CWF is for fun, although we do encourage healthy competition. An example of healthy competition is if you voice your confidence on an upcoming match or give a friendly verbal jab towards your future opponent. An example of unhealthy competition is if you continue to drop sly or immature comments regarding a match result or a separate issue. If you break this rule, it is under the discretion of the Owner(s) whether you shall receive 1 strike or not.
7. Championships
There are various levels of championships in CWF, quite like in the WWE, and if you become a champion than you should view it as a reward for your efforts.
If you currently hold a championship and have decided to leave CWF or will be LOA, you must inform your Head Writer(s) or Owner(s) of your decision via a PM. This is to ensure no result is spoilt to the public, and therefore your match result will not become obvious. If you break this rule, you will receive 1 strike. If you're LOA, it is under the discretion of your Head Writer(s) whether you will remain as champion.
Please make sure you follow these rules to ensure that CWF is run as efficiently as possible. If you have any questions, please contact an Owner.
8. Deadlines
There will be deadlines for when you can Trash-Talk and it has been decided that Sunday 10AM your time is the deadline. I know there are timezones and the show goes up on a Monday. This is why the deadline will happen 9am your time so there's no confusion whatsoever.
STAFF - Match deadline will be Sunday 4pm your time. This way if a match is a little late we still have enough time to wait a few hours in order to get everything sorted in for Monday Night Nitro.
