The General Rules
These are the general rules that I hope everyone follows. They are just common curtesy and respect rules.
1. No bullying. Please don't beat up on other members. How would you like it if you were the one getting bullied. Don't criticizing other members.
2. No racist or offensive comments. Please don't make any comments that would be offensive to a certain person. This should be a friendly board where you can come and post.
3. No Swearing. Please refrain from swearing. I understand that you just can't explain something without using one swear word here or there, but not every other word. Please keep the language soft.
4. Warning. This is a mature site, to some degree. We are going to act like mature people and not yell at each other, but I don't want to see r-rated threads, so no sexual rp's. And guys, that means pictures too. Please keep it PG-13 or lower.
Note: We do not promote sexual activity, drug usage, excessive violence, etc. It's a proboard rule.
5. Graphics. Please don't have your signatures and graphics stretch the page. They get annoying at times and take away from the look of posts and the board.
*Take it one-
The Role-playing Rules
1. No Mary Sues or Gary Sues. Everyone has flaws. Learn them, and embrace them. It's what makes all the characters different.
2. No God-modding. This means you are controling others characters. Please ask permisson of the person before you dramatically effect someone's character. Also, please run drastic story line changes through me first.
3. Please speak in third person. This makes it easier to understand what you mean.
Example:
Right way: Bella went to the store.
Wrong way: I went to the store.
4. Please use correct grammer and spelling. It will make it so much easier to role-play with you when people can understand what you are saying.
5. Please post pictures of your character in you signature or as your avatar. Please do not post pictures of yourself. It will help everyone visulize your character better. If you aren't able to make some or are unable to find some that you like, just request for one to be made in the graphics board. I'm sure you'll get some in no time.
6. Word Count! There isn't one. Oh, you thought there was going to be one? That's ok. I don't care how many or how less words you have, as long as you have a decent post that people would be able to respond to. At least a good paraghraph and you're going to be good.
7. When a thread is dead or done, please put [Dead] or [Done] in the title, so it is easier for the staff to tell if they can move it to the Tombs. Also you can send a PM to me or one of the staff members with the link to the thread saying it is done or dead.
