Rebirth of the Force is a free-form, play-by-post Star Wars themed role play forum. There are no numbers, no stats, just an emphasis on storytelling and creating plot lines for your and others' characters. In a sense it's like one big collaborative fanfiction (to use the dreaded f-word).
In general (but this is by no means the definite case), you'll start as a mundane force-blind sentient being then choose an affiliation and grow in power. It's that simple.
The only rules are:
No lord-modding: if you are in a in-game conflict with another character, don't assume that all you do works, (for example if you shoot a blaster at someone, don't say "The blast drives deep into his stomach and he keels over, dead." Give them a chance to dodge if it's within reason) and no killing other characters without their owner's consent. This doesn't have clear boundaries, but try to be sensible and logical, and most importantly, try to make the whole experience enjoyable and fun.
No spamming: pretty self-explanatory
No trash-talking: avoid flaming other people. If it's in-character and reasonable, then it's understandable, but if it's not in-character or not something your character would do, then use common sense. Even if it's in-character, try to keep the flaming to a minimum.
No ERP: good lord I would have hoped I would never have had to say this, but in case it crosses your mind... NO.
(If you don't know what ERP is, then just forget this last one.)
