I have to agree with most: Gary/Mary Sues are almost everywhere and are some of the power-players, god-mods, insta-killers, etc. So I can understand why this rule is put there.However, the most that I have agreed with prior to this sentence would already know that this rule wouldn't be needed for "literate" role-plays, since no advanced role-player would actually ever Gary/Mary Sue.For example, this is what a pesky bugger--Imean, Gary/Mary Sue can do:"tom wanted someone to mate with. he felt alone but didnt cry in his corner. i love you. he muttered in his sleep. his beauty glowing in the moonlight attracting all females and making them jealous of him and wanting him. its always happening. he thought."Now, now little children reading this, this isn't the best way to get a mate, (you shouldn't mate at all, but you can have your characters in love, of course~!) since nobody can be that beautiful, nor can somebody make all the female wolves/whateveryouare fall in love with you. In fact, this is a big no-no!Back on track: I think this rule isn't really needed at all, since most already know not to do this. Some might do this, but I still think you don't need to tell someone like "You cannot do this", or "You cannot do that", or something like that, (that might just be me...) and tell them before warning them if this rule isn't added.
