the MAIN rules
RESPECT: please respect all members of this board. especially the admin [me] and staff. as an RP community, please try and get along.
Site Rating: the site rating is mature PG-13. If anything goes beyond that, edit the post title and add an [R]. but note: just because of this rule, i don't want everyone to go off and have sex. this site is for RP not for pornography. so keep this to a minimum. An alternative method is the "fade to black" method.
Advertising, Spam, and Trash: i will allow you to post advertisements of your board in the designated board. anywhere else is strictly forbidden. One last thing. Do Not and i say DO NOT trash me, another member, or the board itself in a post. if you have something bad to say PM me and i'll deal with it
the CHARACTER rules
Stay True To The Character: Don't contradict how you wrote a character. If its a canon, don't make them in a way that contradicts how i wrote them. If you wrote them as a bitch, RP them as a bitch. Don't all of a sudden have a golden heart.
Boy && Girl Characters: OK like all RP sites, there are more girls than guy characters. So to fix this, if you decide to make a character thats a boy and you want to make another character, it has to be a boy. If you made a boy, then PM me for permission to make a girl
the GRAPHIC rules
Avatars: you can either have a 100x100-130x130 avatar. It will be easier if you had a 100x100, but if you wish you may have one that is bigger. Remember, no larger than 130x130
Sigs: common sense. do not use a signature banner that expands the page. a good amount of text is about 5-6 lines.
POSTING rules
Post size: ok i know how all of us hate having to write a long post when we have no muse, at all. I would say at least keep posts at a minimum of a 1-2 paragraphs, which would take up about 5-8 sentences. NO ONE OR TWO LINERS, unless your in an OOC board or something like it.
God Modding and Power Playing: in another words making your character control another person's character in RP or make your character perfect/invisible/the like. DON'T DO IT!
Language: Please try and use correct grammar. I'm not a grammar whiz myself, but try to use correct grammar. No chat or IM speak, except in an OOC board, IM board, or the like. Please spell your words correctly. You are allowed to curse, but keep it to a minimum.
RP Style: when speaking in RP use "quotation marks", bold, or color. Or all, your choice. For thoughts put it in italics. when posting actions do not put them in *'s, but describe what their doing. to make a lengthly post as detailed as possible. All RP posts must be normal RP style: past tense and 3rd person
