THE ULTIMATE RULEBOOK

Hello dear. The title says it all. YES you do need to read them. I realise it is a boring business, but it’s for the best honest xP Make sure to understand everything and NOT break any rules or the admins will be forced to take action.

REPORTING FOR DUTY
registering with the site

• Proboards are strictly 13+, therefore, we will not accept anyone below that age.
  
  
• If you create an account, you are committing yourself to fill in a profile. Lurkers are not permitted.
  
  
• A character application must be posted within 2 weeks of joining the board, otherwise the account will be deleted. If you require an exception to this rule, please speak to an admin.
  
  
• Once a profile has been submitted and approved activity is very important; especially when you apply for a canon character.
  
  
• If you need to leave for a period of time, post in the appropriate category or inform a staff member.
  
  
• Please use the handy blockquote tags and please make sure all posts are size one, it make things tidy. I know you're probably thinking that the rules aren't size one, but it's so it'll catch your attention.

WHEN YOU SEE MY FACE
hope it gives you hell

Applying

• The application needs to be filled out with care. Refrain from using abbreviations or text-talk.
  
  
• If you do not use the provided code the application will NOT be reviewed. However, you will be reminded to go over it and fix as necessary.
  
  
• Once the application has been submitted, please DON’T send messages to the admins about acceptance. Like you, we have real life to attend to so be patient and wait at least 48 hrs before catching an admin’s attention. PLEASE be polite in doing so. PMs, as opposed to personal Emails, are preferred.
  
  
• You have a limit of 10 days to modify your application to meet the character requirements of the admins. If you do not meet the requirements your application will be DENIED. Feel free to reapply. They will be stored in the archive if denied.
  
  
• The beginning of the codeword for character creation is: frie

Character

• Gary Stus and Mary Sues. No one likes them and if you don't know what they are Google them.
  
  
• No one is perfect, therefore perfect characters are not allowed. Your character may have good qualities, but that doesn't mean they never make mistakes. Make sure there's that something that sets your character apart from the rest.
  
  
• Pregnancies, suicides and deaths happen. Nonetheless, members are expected to PM an admin before carrying out any of the mentioned above.
  
  
• You may make your character unrealistic by purchasing items from the store. New member are allowed on free UNLIMITED item on their first character if they choose.

AND HERE'S YOUR LIES
you can look me in the eyes

Roleplaying

• Please only one account per person! You may have a few symbols in your name such as ppopycat101, but not Starfish <><>******. Get What I mean?
  
  
• All levels of experience are accepted, as long as the person in question can post at least one decent paragraph.
  
  
• One line posters are NOT tolerated. Please strive to make your posts 150+ words. If your post is only like a few words under a hundred fifty once or twice we won't fret. But if it's that consistently you will be warned at 25%. And if you are out of muse and only post 80 words once we won't nag on you.
  
  
• Always reply in first or third person. If you do want to use first person talk it is required to have a table to do so, sorry for having it so, but other wise it gets confusing. And NO slang language such as IM chat words or acronyms.
  
  
• When you're character is speaking use quotation marks (" "), and for thoughts use Italic. Unless using a table and you specify otherwise.
  
  
• Godmodding is FORBIDDEN, Power Playing is permitted with other member's permission. We will watch closely for these!
  
  
• OOCs should be clearly stated if in roleplay. Please use "()" when using OOC, it makes it much clearer.
  
  
• Creativity and originality are encouraged, especially when it comes to coding which makes posts look more attractive.

Rating

• This board is strictly rated PG 13, for the benefit of our younger members
  
  
• Threads bordering from U to PG 13 will be moved to a designated board by the STAFF. Said board is password protected. Please keep in mind that the mentioned board is still strictly PG 13.
  
  
• Mature content is FORBIDDEN. Violence, drug-use and cursing should be kept at a minimum.

ANOTHER PALE MOON
shines like high noon

Anything else

• You are allowed to have as many characters [both canons & originals] as you like, as long as you keep the whole lot active.
  
  
• Always respect the staff and other members.
  
  
• If you're having a bad day, my advice is to keep clear off the board. We don't want or need unnecessary fights. This is a place to have fun.
  
  
• Please refrain from discussing Religion, Politics and Sexual Orientation on the board. We understand and acknowledge that everyone is entitled to their opinion, however, sometimes silence is golden.
  
  
• We would also appreciate if you don't spend your whole time on the c-boxes, keep in mind that you are here to roleplay and it's not nice to keep others waiting for a long time.

AND YOU CAN TAKE BACK
memories they're no good to me

We will be watching you, so do not break any of the above rules. Just like in baseball you have 3 strikes before you're out... or as i like to call it banned and deleted. Behave yourselves and most important of all, have fun :]

Your loving admin, Henley!
