Quote:I. Definition:
The Roleplaying Coalition (RPC) is a group of role-players for the Final Fantasy XIV MMORPG. The coalition consists of various role-play linkshells, supporters of role-play, and freelance role-players. All of these groups and individuals are committed to making a prosperous role-play community in the world of Hydaelyn.
II. Structure:
The RPC holds no real authority outside of site and forum management. The extent of the RPC’s power includes banning extreme problem members from the forums and/or dropping support for a RP linkshell in extreme cases of linkshell misbehavior. Dropping support for a RP linkshell means that the group will lose any and all advertisement within the RPC and will not be invited to RPC sponsored events.
Dropping support for a RP linkshell requires two things. First, the RPC Council must hold a vote of no confidence. Afterwards, there would be a public vote in the Pub section of the forums. If both the Council and public agree, the linkshell’s advertisements will be promptly removed by administration.
The RPC Council is comprised of all of the various RP linkshell leaders. Each linkshell is allowed to appoint up to two members to the position. They may alter their representatives at any point in time for any reason.
The RPC Council has the following responsibilities/powers:
1. Assisting in large-scale event planning such as the Epic and Eorzean Olympics.
2. Discussing inter-linkshell disputes, relationships, and so on through occasional meetings.
III. Purposes:
A) To provide a central hub for all FFXIV role-players to gather, communicate, and share with one another. The RPC acts as a resource for lore and etiquette, character info, and other RP related needs while also acting as the bridge between RPers and non-RPers.
B) To provide a central location for role-play linkshell advertisement.
C) To select a designated role-playing server.
D) To create and advertise cross-linkshell and public events.
E) To act as a mediator in linkshell conflict only when absolutely necessary for the continuation of the overall role-play community.
IV. Acceptance criteria:
All role-players are automatically welcome into the RPC so long as they abide by RPC standards. Role-play linkshells are accepted into the RPC if they wish, as long as the following criteria are met.
1. The linkshell must have some form of RP element to it.
2. The linkshell must consist of at least 3 members.
3. The linkshell must be respectful of the overall RP community.
