Phone calls are allowed on A Charmed Legacy. However, they may be a little confusing so be sure to pay close attention to these guidelines.
When you want to call someone, create a post doing so and bold the person you are calling. Remember that all phones have video capabilities, but they are optional, so it needs to be stated whether or not you are using it.

| John pulls out his cell phone, flips it open and calls Jill, enabling video. |
Once this is done, the member Telephone will post to the person that is being called, informing them that their phone is ringing.

| Jill's phone rings as John invites her into a video call. |
The person will answer, and post a reply in their own thread. This post will be done in the normal posting format.
| QUOTE |
Jill sees John's name on the ID and answers it, smiling as John's face appears on the screen,
"Hey you." |
The person will then post back to the other person. They will repost the same reply in the other person's thread except this time, they will put the post in brackets "{ }".

To lessen the confusion, this will be done even when the phone call is not using the video capability. Just be sure not to meta-game by seeing something you shouldn't be.
