Rules
Literacy
[/size]This board is semi lit(+), so you don't have to be a professional author, but you do have to write with correct grammar and spelling, and you can't wr!t3 l!k3 dis. No Ebonics![/center]
Behavior
[/size]Bad behavior will not be tolerated on the site. Your character can be as mean as he/she wants in a roleplay, but don't insult or put down any other person on this site. Any conflict can be resolved peacefully and maturely, or you'll be kicked off.[/center]
Staff
[/size]Going along with the above rules regarding behavior, listen to the Staff, please. Porter, Chirp, and Frankie all deserve respect. If you don't agree with one of us, do not start a fight; you will get kicked of the site. We are tolerant here, and if one of us tells you to do something you don't agree with, contact another member of our staff and they will deal with the problem. We haven't had any problems yet, and here's to hoping there are none in the future.[/center][/font]
Plagiarism
[/size]DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! If you are caught plagiarizing, then your post, your character, and in bad cases, your account, will be deleted.[/center]
Rating
This is rated teen, so mature topics are allowed. If you want it more specific, then teen 16(+). Don't go overboard with your characters' indulgent pursuits, but they are allowed. Please take it to PMs if it starts to get X-rated.
Activity and Posting
Please make sure that if you commit to this site, you stay active. Vacations should be announced, and any inactive account that hasn't posted in one month will be deleted unless notified before hand. Make sure to write at least five good quality posts every month.
Good quality means at least three paragraphs, written well with good grammar and correct spelling, and easily readable with good vocabulary. Be sure to keep all of your posts in third person unless posting in the character's journal.
Powerplaying and Godmoding
Yes, this is a fantasy, so you characters can have powers, but please heed their limitations. Do not control another writer's character unless you have been given permission, and do not give your character powers that are not mentioned in the description of the race or power claim. Remember, you can take a hit every once in a while, and don't expect to win every fight.
Images
Please be kind and courteous with Avatars and Signatures. Avatars must be 150x200 and Signatures must be no larger than 500 pixels. Please do not stretch the boards with pictures. If you need help resizing your pictures, just contact one of the admins.
Character Limit and Post Order
There is no character limit! In order to make a new character, you must make a new account and fill out the application. You can have as many characters as you can handle, but make sure to stay active with all of them.
Also, during threads, make sure to keep up with the order in which the characters post. If a person has not posted for one week with an unexcused absence, and their post isn't completely necessary to the thread, then you are allowed to skip. Otherwise, please seek permission.
Site-Wide Events
There will be Site-Wide Events, and I suggest that you try to involve at least one of your characters in those events because they're meant for the characters to get to know each other.
Have Fun!
As long as you're following the rules, this shouldn't be a problem!
