::Rules::
(12/06/08)
(12/06/08)
These Rules will be subject to change as seen fit by Admin, Co-Admin and Mods. Be warned that if you break any rule Admin has the right to ban you or even delete your account.
::Site Rules::
1. This is Proboards site so the TOS applies here, if you are under thirteen then you should not be on this site. If you are found to lie about your age you will be deleted from this site.
2. We are aiming to have a friendly and fun site, this means you are not allowed to offend any other member by means of racial slurs, sexual insults or rude and hurtful Posts, PMs or abuse of Karma. You will be banned for breaking this rule.
3. We understand that no one can be the prefect speller nor know how to correctly put a sentence but I do suggest you take the time to scan through your post and try your best to make sure the words are spelled correctly and that it makes sense.
4. NO NET TALK.... this is 'L8' instead of Late, TLK instead of talk or dnt instead of Don't. This is not how you speak in real life so please don't use it whilst in character.
5. As of date I have not removed the bloke on certain words I will do but if members abuse the use of swear words or curses I will remove both the words and the members for a set amount of time. I'm sure you don't swear every five seconds normally so why should you do it here.
6. Sexual content is allowed but please remember that some members may be young or may not enjoy reading such things so when creating a new thread with the intent of sexual intimacy please rate it accordingly. R or M is acceptable.
7. More then one character is allowed to you but please make separate accounts. I have made two characters on one account and it became frustrating and confusing. You may have a maximum of four characters/accounts, it is not to be cruel but I feel more then that and you will let one lag.
::Characters::
8. For information regarding your chosen species there will be a fact sheet for each shortly. Please follow the facts as it will be confusing and annoying if one vampire could fly but another couldn't or one werewolf could change when they wanted and the other could only change when the moon was full.
9. No God Playing, this means simply that you must allow the other member to reply before you charge ahead. If the member has not posted within a week of their last reply then PM me and I will lock the thread until the member comes back.
10. Characters, I do highly suggest that when you create your character that you give them a first and last name. No symbols or nicknames as that is confusing for some.
11. A face claim thread will be set up so please post a reply for any actors/models/singers you may want to use to claim them. If you are just signing up I suggest you check this out first.
You may reserve a face claim for a later date such as you are creating another character or reserving it for a friend, that name will be put in a different color. If after two weeks you have not PM or replied that you have created the character I will remove the name and it will be open for anyone else.
12. There will be cannon characters. If you wish to play a cannon then you must PM me first.
13. Avatars isn't a must neither are Sig's.
14. I know that sometimes it is hard to respond to a post but please try to write more then one line. I understand if you can not but if I find more then three one liners in a post I will PM you. Try to use as much description as you can.
15. 1st person and third person writing is acceptable. If you want your characters thought made clear then place them in Italic and clear to read.
::Members::
16. I know you have lives outside of the site and I know that you might not be able to be as active as some other members but please do not sign up and never return because that is a waste of your time. I will be doing a three week clean up and any member who has not sign on in that amount of time or has not created a character in that time will be deleted.
17. If you know you are going to be away for a long amount of time then inform Admin or one of the Mods just so we don't delete your character and account.
18. Admin and Co-Admin words are final... if you have a problem with the Co-Admin or Mods then PM me directly and I will look into it. I assure you that I will view both sides of the story before making my decision.
19. I am not going to put any limit on the amount of posts you have to make before advertising. You are free to post a link to your own web site after you sign up but if you sign up for that reason alone I will remove the link and your account.
20. Do not spam, it is pointless and annoying... say what you have to say once.
21. No one will ask for your password not even Admin unless you have a problem and have approached Admin. So do not give out your password. Nor your phone number, address or any other information unless there is a valid reason to do so.
22. Feel free to ask as many questions as you like, the Admin team are here to help you.
23. If you wish to play someone related to another member then ask them first.
24. Last but by no means last have fun, this site is being created for that reason alone. I put these rules here because I don't want any member who signs up to feel harassed or insulted. [/center][/size]
