a note regarding 4th walling;

[ironwood]

Hey guys!

Just a note that Tu Shanshu's policy on 4th walling is that it's essentially tantamount to godmoding, and is not permissible without the approval of both the character you are threading with and any other cast members it may affect. This is especially important in regards to secret identities. For ease of examples, this means that if you are 4th walling Jerrica from Jem and the Holograms, then you are by extension also 4th walling Kimber, Aja, Raya and Shana. Even if Jem/Jerrica's player is totally okay with it, please keep in mind that other people affected may not be.

Recognizing someone as fictional and/or knowing their secret identities both fall under this category. Even if your character isn't the sort to discuss the matter with others, it's still best to clear it with the affected parties.

If you have any questions about this or any other policy, feel free to direct it to the mods either in a comment here, or a PM.
