SITE PHILOSOPHY

WHO WE ARE

Just Another Chocolate Frog Card (JACFC) aspires to create a friendly, freeing environment for skilled writers. We provide a lot of freedom: this site is driven by the characters, their relationships, their individual plots, and the creativity of individual members. We don't have canons you'll recognize from the Harry Potter books, but we do have requests for original characters. We don't have a restrictive site plot, but we do have IC and OOC site events that you can choose to join. We have an established site canon that's always changing and growing thanks to member input, and we welcome well-written characters of all kinds.

We don't expect perfection, but we do seek members who know the basics of writing (e.g., grammar, spelling, character development, etc.), the tenants of good rp etiquette (e.g., no powerplaying/godmoding, the difference between IC and OOC interactions, no metagaming, realistic IC consequences for IC actions, etc.) and who strive to write well and to improve. We love our craft! While we eschew elitism and aren't fond of labels, we describe ourselves as designed for skilled writers. All of this means that we're probably not the best site for a beginning writer, but we're also not going to be a good fit for anyone unwilling to write with writers of varying (e.g. "intermediate to advanced") skill levels.

Additionally, we want members who are friendly and forgiving, creative and candid, and who enjoy other writers just as much as they enjoy the writing process. JACFC is a community, and we don't tolerate immaturity or feuds. We appreciate diversity among our writers and characters, and we hope to grow and learn from each other. We're not here just to use our favorite playbys, to feel popular, or to hold fancy OOC or IC positions. We're here to have creative freedom, to have fun, to write lots, and to be a supportive, kind community!

If we sound like the place for you, we encourage you to continue to the concept and rules. We hope you'll be joining us soon!
