The Rules « Thread Started on Feb 24, 2007, 1:58am »
1.) You’re allowed to 3 characters on the site. But please, they need to remain active.
2.) Every five months I will do a clean up, removing inactive accounts, opening up positions and putting old posts into the dead threads board.
3.) Please supply a signature image for your character(s). Just remember: your signature image(s) MUST NOT stretch the page. If they do, you will be asked to resize them. Image may be no more then: 640 x 400. [640 width x 400 height]
4.) When you are in a role-play situation, please try to remain literate. One-liners are NOT acceptable and never will be. Any person, if given the opportunity, can write up an intelligible reply or thread starter. As a guideline, try to make it to six sentences in your post. Come on people, it’s not that hard.
5.) Try to remember that with us being on ProBoards, we’re very limited in the type of content we can have featured. Posts should not contain content that is not suitable for children under the age of 13 (if you’re that young, go away: you shouldn’t be here). If this were a movie, the rating would be PG-13. But sex and fighting is aloud, as long as the other person agrees to it. If you are going to have a thread like this put [R] in the title of the board.
6.) Drama is okay, just don’t make an event into a huge ordeal. If little Jimmy’s mother dies, then she dies. If some chick gets pregnant, she gets pregnant. If a dude gets AIDs, he gets AIDs. Don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill.
7.) REMAIN ACTIVE! This site CANNOT function without an active member base. It’s understandable if you’re not on all of the time. I mean, we do all have a life away from the computer, but come on, it’s not that hard to check it every couple of days or so. Characters that are inactive at the time of clean up with be deleted. But if you return, you maybe apply once more, but beware the character you where before might be taken.
8.) We’re are a human roleplay. I don't want any freaky people that do witchcraft or magic or anything along those lines.
9.) Once you have been approved, you are free to role-play and develop your character.
10.) Follow the normal role-playing rules. No godmodding, or whatever it goes by nowadays. You’re not God, nor will you ever be, so you can’t possibly know the actions, thoughts, and speak of the person you’re role-playing with.
11.) You must be in the third person when in a role-play situation. Don’t know what that is? Take a look at Google, it’s not hard.
12.) Remember that you are playing as a FICTIONAL character. It is VERY easy to get the life of your character mixed up with your own personal life. Don’t develop your character to be similar to your own living persona, develop a character with all of that emotional drive and pent up energy sitting inside of you.
13.) This is THE MOST IMPORTANT rule! To ease confusion, people who are playing more than one character MUST CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT FOR EACH CHARACTER! It’s easier for all that way.
