Public Content Quality Standards

Review Process

All storylines and characters submitted for Public visibility are reviewed to ensure they meet our content guidelines and quality standards.

Important Notice

• Following our Content Creation Policy doesn't automatically guarantee approval.
• Even if your storyline and characters complies with all content guidelines, it may still be rejected if it shows insufficient effort or lacks basic detail.

What We're Looking For

Quality and polished content is always appreciated, but we recognize that experience levels vary and we know everyone starts somewhere. What we are really looking for is genuine thought and effort behind your content.

Your storyline and character should have:

✅ Reasonable detail - Enough information for players to understand the setting and characters

✅ Clear premise - Players should know what to expect from your storyline/character

✅ Basic completeness - Character traits, storyline setup, and relevant context included

✅ Genuine effort - Shows you've spent time developing your idea

We understand:

• Not everyone is a professional writer
• You're still learning and improving
• Creative styles vary

❌ WHAT GETS REJECTED

Content that shows minimal to no effort, such as:

• Extremely vague descriptions (1-2 sentences with no detail)
• Empty or placeholder text
• No character background or personality
• Unclear or missing storyline premise
• Obviously rushed or incomplete submissions

✅ WHAT GETS APPROVED

Content that shows genuine effort, even if not perfect:

• Detailed enough for players to understand the story
• Clear character personalities and backgrounds
• Understandable storyline setup and goals
• Proper categorization and tags
• Shows you've thought about your creation

Remember: We are looking for effort and care!

Quick Examples

❌ Too Minimal (Likely rejected):

Character: Warrior

Description: Fights

Storyline: Battle

This shows no effort or detail.

✅ Sufficient Effort (Likely approved):

Character: Captain Reylan

Description: An experienced mercenary captain who's tough but fair. 

She leads a small group of fighters and takes on dangerous jobs. 

She's loyal to her crew but haunted by a past mission gone wrong.

Storyline: Captain Reylan is hired to escort medicine through 

dangerous territory during a plague outbreak. Things get complicated 

when she suspects the plague might not be natural.

Not perfect, but shows clear effort and gives players enough to work with.

If Your Content is Rejected

Don't worry! Rejection doesn't mean your idea is bad.

You'll receive:

• Reason for rejection
• Guidance on what needs improvement

You can:

• Add more details and resubmit
• Expand character backgrounds
• Keep it Private/Unlisted instead
  

Note: Storylines and characters with images unrelated to the content will be rejected. Ensure your images match your storyline theme and character descriptions.

Most rejections are easily fixable with a bit more detail!

Bottom Line

Put some thought into your creation, give players enough detail to enjoy the story, and you'll be fine.
