RULES- PLEASE READ!!
Basic
*Be nice, please!
*No godmodding, because nobody likes it. For those who don't know what that means, it's where you control another character's actions. If I were to post, as a cat, "The tabby cat leapt at the huge dog, that dodged the cat just in time" that would be godmodding, since that's saying what the dog is doing when he is not my character. You play as your characters only.
*English please-- nothing personal, I just can't understand anything else. Oh, and refrain from using chatspeak and try to use proper grammar within the actual roleplay. Little typos here and there are acceptable (I'm guilty of them), but don't purposely wrytt lykk diss lol.
*This board is rated PG-13. Nothing terribly explicit, but some blood and a touch of guts if nessesary are allowed. And nothing too sexually explicit as well.
*Spamming is not allowed.
*Don't flame others if you don't agree with them. You know what they say,all toasters toast toast if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.
*No copying other people's work-- be it art, or their posts. Your posts and artwork should be original.
*Read the rules before applying for characters.
*No spam, please, unless it's a random thought, which may be posted in the Random Thoughts thread.
*Don't force any pairings on people, PLEASE. I don't want any big drama starting here. Please be respectuful of other peoples' opinions and realize that not everybody will like the same pairings you do.
*As I stated before, respect the opinion of others and don't flame them for it.
Characters
*Any animated character is allowed, this includes video game characters and anime characters.
*Each member is allowed a maximum of six characters. Admins and mods have the privelege of having more, but even they must have reasonable limits.
*Each character must have a seperate account, which has the name of the character that account will be roleplaying as.
*Long-time members (anyone posting here for over a month consecutively) can apply for more characters with the admins' permission. You must be a steady roleplayer, and you should be able to handle the responsibility of having several characters.
*Don't claim a bajillion characters and never use them. I will ask you to drop them if you neglect them for too long.
*I will be allowing OC's here, but they will be carefully scrutinized. No next gen children here. Sorry, but it would mess with the continuity at the moment (this rule may be revoked in the future, but for now, no next gen children).
*Background characters are allowed to be claimed.
*In order to apply for a character you must, after reading these rules and the character guidelines, claim a character in your character claims folder. Once you make your claim you need to fill out an application and post it in Awaiting Approval folder and wait for me/the admins to approve it.
*Approval can take as long as a week to only an hour. Don't PM me or the admins about approving them, or bug us repeatedly about it. If it's taken a while, don't worry, we haven't forgotten about you. If I have a problem with the app, I'll PM you.
*There's no wait time on claiming characters, but please be responsible about it.
*Approved characters have a month to post IN CHARACTER in an RP. If you fail to do so, your application will be moved into the Rejected Applications folder, and you are only allowed them back if you prove yourself responsible enough to reclaim them.
Play
*Do NOT play as a character who hasn't been approved. Doing so will get you suspended.
*Make your posts longer than shorter. Give people something to work with! NO ONE LINE POSTS!!! At least a paragraph for each post.
*If you start a new thread, please consult the timeline and tell me what date it is set on at the top of the post.
*Dropped characters can be claimed by another player-- but said player has to stick with the continuities that the previous player has established.
*Don't make the threads go unbelievably fast, since nobody likes catching up with ten pages of posts and not everyone can be online at every hour of the day.
*You can have two or more characters of yours interact in the same post, but don't gratuitously RP with yourself, it starts to get annoying after a while.
Other
*Don't join, claim a character, post a few times, then dissapear. TELL ME if you're going to leave this board. Don't worry, I won't be offended.
*Signatures and banners should be at the maximum 200 pixels high, though I'm pretty lenient about this. Just don't make them ridiculously long or huge, and we should be okay.
