The rules are pretty simple and should be fairly easy to follow along with.
1. Keep it Clean- We will allow swearing, but keep it at a minimum, it should not be every other word being something inappropriate.
2. Respect the Other Role Players- We don't like seeing people fighting and making fun of other Role Players. In the RP areas of the board when you say things it is all right for your character to say something, but keep that down. We don't want to see anyone going about making fun of how someone else duels or RP’s. If there is a Role Player that is bothering you, then it is expected of you to report it to an admin or moderator, not to start posting things about it on the boards.
3. No Spam- We will not tolerate people breaking this rule. No short, pointless annoying messages, or posting all over the board the same thing. We don't have time to go around deleting and fixing post. If this is seen then you will be warned and then banned.
~Under this, there is also to be no Double Posting (Posting messages back to back. You may post in your own dorms because those are your rooms to be in or if you have a thread and no one responds within a 24hr. time period.)
4. Stay on Topic- This should be easy but we've seen it done. Don't start going on about something different in topics. Try to stay with the topic that is posted. Under certain boards when you make a thread we expect you to stick with it, there are places where you can talk about other things so take it there please.
5. Try to Use Proper English- It's understand if English isn't your first language, we can deal with that but DON'T go are using words like: ppl, b, lmao, igh’t, b/c, cy, .......and so forth. Not everyone understands what these mean so please try and stick with normal writing. Yes this will prove difficult for many of you though please try to follow it.
6. No Power Playing or God Moding, If you don't know what it is then feel free to ask. If you've been told already what it is and you still continue to do so then you will receive a warning.
7. Keep Smilies Limited Please- We've seen a lot of people using them in the RP areas and that's not needed. When you role play there is a whole point behind it. You can't just take the easy way with everything. It your talking in ooc: (Out Of Character) then it's all right but don't overdo it. Even ooc in the RP should be limited, there are areas on the board for you to talk to other members so keep in mind there are other people rp besides you.
8. Keep Relationships PG-13- Kissing and such is allowed though lets not get to graphic here, there aren't a lot of people over 18 on here so keep it clean.
9. Limit OOC chat in the Role Playing areas - If you really need to talk then do so in the C-box or on your own time in ims. Unless it's about something going on in that thread you shouldn't be doing it.
10. Sigs - Should not make the width of the boards stretch, if they do and you don't get rid or it then an admin will. It makes reading pages difficult and it's just annoying. Avatar images can only be a max. size of 100x100 b/c that's just the basic setting.
11. No Leeching - Pming members constantly to join a forum, it is rude and also annoying to people. There is a place for you to post your websites and forums so use that area. Don't just keep bother people, if you what to instant message them outside of the forum then that's between you and them.
These are just sub matters that have come up on a few of my other sites. Not the same as the rules, but the same message behind them. Avoid doing them or you can recieve warnings.
~Don't keep posting back to back messages in a row. 6 post in one thread of just you in a few minutes is not something you should do. It's called spam, there is a modify button for a reason, learn to use it.
~Pay attention to the rules and how things run. You have to post a profile BEFORE you can begin Role Playing around the rest of the site. You may post inthe Chat area or World area since they are ooc topics(ooc=out of character) But otherwise don't post everywhere until they rest is complete. If your going to fight on this site then yes you have to post a power list in the appropriate area so don't pm me and ask.
