it may seem like alot to read, but really, it's not. please read the rules carefully, don't just skim.[/blockquote][/size]the basics;;
01. This site needs to be a active site. I know that you can't get on every day, but if you can't get on at least 2-3 times a week, then this site is not for you. Let an admin know if you're going to be gone for over 7 days.in character rules;;
02. You can have as many characters as you want, but there are some rules. For every three female characters you have, you must have one boy or one teacher. It's okay if you're 'absolutely horrible' at playing guys, this will give you experience with it.
03. If you register a canon, you MUST role-play that canon at least once every five days. If I find that your canon character is not active, I will give it to someone else who will be able to use it more. I know that not everyone can get on the computer every day, but if you can't get on at least two to three times a week, then obviously this site isn't for you.
04. Respect all of the staff members. Being disrespectful to someone, especially someone with power over you, will not get you far.
05. NO SPAMMING! Don't join a thread just to say, “Hey, come join our thread!”
06. Don't bug a person saying, “WHY HAVEN’T YOU POSTED ON OUR THREAD! POST!” Try to post as soon as you can, and do not pester like this.
01. NO GODMODING, please & thanks and no mary sue-ing either. Don't know what these are? PM me or google it.
02. This site rating Is PG-13. Cursing is allowed, but not excessively. And no sex scenes. If you must write one, title the post [R] And none of the details, PLEASE!
03. PLEASE write something worth reading in your posts. Not just 1 liners. You must write a least one paragraph which is at least four to five descriptive sentences. More will be accepted. Be descriptive!
04. One character per account. If you accidentally post as the wrong account then delete that post and reply with the proper character, please. Just save what you have written and repost it under the right name.
05. No chat speak, please. If you talk like this on all your other sites or whatever I don't care. It's hard for me to understand and looks ugly. This is not allowed in the in character threads and only sometimes in the out of character threads please.
06. Please use proper spelling and grammar. I understand if you make a spelling error. But it's also possible to go back and edit a post. Please capitalize the first letter of the first word in your sentence and all names. I expect you are above 4th grade and know spelling and grammar.
07. Posts should always be in third person and past tense. Except when your character is talking.
08. Don't have crazy font colors in your posts. It's okay for character plotting, of course, but people might not want to read the posts if they are all a zillion different colors and sizes. Please only use one size, it looks a lot cleaner and neater.
signatures and avatars;;
01. You can have both. Most people like to have a general idea of who they are talking to looks like. But you can take as long as you need to get a signature and avatar. I know how hard it is to get good signatures, but avatars should be pretty easy. Get an avatar ASAP. If you really can't find a signature, there are people here or on other sites who will make one for you.
02. No huge signatures. You may have one big one that isn't any bigger then 500x250, two images that are around 250x250, or up to five icons. Text is okay in your signatures but don't put too much.
03. Avatars should not be bigger nor smaller then 100x100
04. Coding to center a signature is: [center*][/center*] without the *.
05. Absolutely no nudity.
c-box;;
01. Don't spam the c-box. Spam is small pointless annoying messages. Conversations are welcomed. That's what it's for. But absolutely no SPAM.
02. Also, no advertising. It's okay to have your site linked to your name, but don't draw attention to it. And no flat-out advertising, like saying “Hey people come to my site!” or anything related to that.
03. Lastly, no cursing or fighting. This is not tolerated at all. You will be suspended for a day or two if this happens and if it continues being banned from the site is an option.
love,
your admin
