Recruitment Policy

The Soviet Connection is an elite, para (but not necessarily tier-conforming) roleplay, and as such there are several standards an induvial must meet to be eligible for recruitment. Before you inquire about recruitment, please see to it that you meet the following requirements:


 * 1) You understand basic roleplaying rules. Concepts like godmoding, powergaming, metagaming, OOC/IC etc. should be familiar to the individual; we do offer roleplay training in some cases, but this is on a by-case basis, and it best to have at least a passable understanding of these concepts before requiring about recruitment.
 * 2) You are a literate roleplayer. The Soviet Connection is literate RP, using paragraph-format posts. Please be able to conform to this - there are no exceptions.
 * 3) You are fluent in English. Despite being about Russian crime (and lead by a Russian), the Soviet Connection uses English as its primary language. If you are not fluent in English, there are probably other RP's better suited for your lingual needs.
 * 4) Your account is over 1 month old. The Soviet Connection understands that individuals do change accounts for a variety of reasons; if you are an IMVU user who had made a new account, but can prove that you are in possession of an account that is over one month old, this is acceptable.
 * 5) You must be able to access and use either IMVU Desktop or the IMVU Client. Mobile creates issues with roleplay; constant disconnections, difficulty typing, and so forth have rendered it a difficult platform to RP on.
 * 6) You do not have a history causing trouble for roleplaying groups. The Soviet Connection may be self-isolated, but we do have friends and connections among various roleplaying communities. If you have a bad reputation - including that of "group hopping" - you will be denied.
 * 7) You do not have issue with any of the topics that may come up in our roleplays. The Soviet Connection deals with some dark themes, as is expected for a roleplay centering around a criminal enterprise. Although we do have limits, such things as excessive violence, death, and sexual themes may occur.
 * 8) You have not been kicked from The Soviet Connection. This should be obvious, but it needs to be said - if you have (on any account) been removed from TSC for violations or serious offenses, do not expect to be able to come back.
