GENERAL[/color]
Please respect the staff and other members. We are here for your benefit,and do no appreciate back-talk or attitude when you're not happy with something. If you have a problem with something or someone on this site, please take it to PM and do not post it for the entire forum to see. If you're caught bashing this site, it's members, or it's staff anywhere, you may be banned.
If there's a problem with where something is placed, or what it looks like, please note that this is our interpretation. There's no need for unnecessary arguments with staff that could lead to a ban because it wasn't dropped.
PATIENCE is also extremely important. As such, the staff will not tolerate anymore nagging about application checks or replies in the c-box or anywhere else. We will get to things when we can.
INACTIVITY We understand people get dry spells, but please warn us if you're going away. Its common courtesy. If you don't leave us a message and you're gone for an extreme amount of time, you'll be deleted.
ROLE PLAYING[/color]
We welcome everyone here but there is a 250 WORD MINIMUM for posting. Feel free to write WAY more than that though! Make sure you're aware of the post lengths you're getting into first, so there isn't any trouble later on.
No God-modding and no killing other peoples' characters.You're not allowed to control the actions of another character, unless they allow you - even then, it's general: she sat in the chair or things like that. It is allowed to re-state what the other character has already done.
Keep it PG-13 at most, please. If there is a big enough desire for mature threads, then the staff will make a romance board that is password protected, and members can PM us for the password. As it is right now, there is no such board and there will not be one created until a group of people want it. Please note that if one is created, content described must still be PG-13. More detailed rules of how to do so will be posted in the board itself.
CHARACTERS [/color]
We allow multiple characters. For every two girls you have, there should be one male, to keep things even. Also, be sure to have your character's full name all in lower case. A shorter nickname version of their first name is allowed. There is no character trading allowed. Please note that you must have separate accounts for each character, and will have a reply to your application in 24 hours [the ninja word is "freedom"]. Also, please do not take on more characters than you can handle. If a staff member see's that you want another character but your other character(s) is/are inactive, you will be put on hold until your other character(s) get more active. This site is strictly OC (original character)-based, which means that there are no canons to give members more freedom.
C-BOX[/color]
You're allowed to use your name or your character's name. To get an image beside your name, put the image link in the 'e-mail/url' field. There will be no advertising for other sites, or any planning for other sites allowed in the c-box. That's what the Advertising board is for. Keep the swearing light please, but there won't be penalties for an every so often slip. Links to images and youtube ARE allowed!
