the secret code is “admin edit”
yes, i know, you’re thinking “oh graon… more rules”… so sorry about that. but i generally find that some rules and guidelines really go a long way. so please read and follow these rules. it would make me so happy.
G E N E R A L
** be nice and respectful to your fellow rpers. really this is just a common sense kind of rule. treat others well and they’ll treat you well, you know. no insults, no harassment, nothing rude and mean. just none of that.
** no theft of words or characters or ideas or graphics or anything at all without consent. absolutely not. you steal something of someone else’s and i find out i will ban you fast enough to make your head spin and then hunt you down and eat your babies. it’s a really pet peeve of mind… come up with your own characters and ideas
** please only advertise in the advertising board! no where else on the site.
** no spaming. this goes for threads and pms and everything else. just don’t spam please. it’s annoying and sad.
** LISTEN TO THE ADMINS! please listen t the admins. most of the time we know what we’re doing and really… we really don’t like being annoyed or bothers or harassed and we don’t like it when people disregard what we say. so please listen to us.
** make your display name your character’s full name, all lower case! if you don’t do this YOU WON’T BE ACCECPTED! you can add fancy symbols too if you want, but please, full name, all lower case.
R O L E P L A Y I N G
**THIRD PERSON RPING ONLY!!! and that's really all I have to say about that
** there is a word count limit! each post MUST HAVE AT LEAST 400 words. Yes I understand having writers block but either don’t post until your muse comes back, or slog it out. if you drop under 400 words every so often that’s alright, but if it’s continuous, you will be getting a reprimand. (obviously this doesn't apply to ooc posts or things like that)
** BE REALISTIC! i know, i know, Harry Potter, magic and all that. but within the bounds of the universe we are playing in, be realistic.
** all major events (deaths, suicides, pregnancy) need to be approved by the admin first. when in doubt, check with us.
** oh BTW, this is a mature rated site, so bad language, sex, scandals, whatever, it’s fair game. if you’re going to have a thread of questionable content, please stick [M] in the title… please!
C H A T B O X ! !
** okay so first and foremost, NO ADVERTISING IN THE CBOX! please just don’t do it. we have an advertising board for that sort of thing.
** no fighting in the cbox please.
** also be nice to the guests, especially if they are asking about the site. it’s good when guests like us because then we get more members.
A P P L I C A T I O N S!
**we accept CANNONS AND ORIGINALS for students!
** adults are CANNON ONLY… we may open this up once we have more members and the site expands, but for now, adults are cannons only. sorry.
** please fill out the correct application for your character. fill out the student application if you’re a student, the professor app if you’re a professor and so on.
** if you need time to finish an application post (ND) in the title and when you are finished simply edit that pout of the title and that will be the admin’s cue to look it over.
** pretty please make the title of you application like this: LAST, first middle. it will make me happy.
** remember to be realistic!
** check to make sure there is a spot available for you. there’s a certain number of spots for each house, age and gender. also, if you want a cannon, make sure the cannon you want is available
** especially if you are reserving a cannon, check on the sub plots and your relatives. this will be very helpful when building an app. and highlight the end of this list to find out the secret code.
CLAIMS
** make your claims AFTER you are accepted. NOT BEFORE! you can reserve things before you are accepted, but you can only claim them after the fact!
** this goes for class schedules, wand registry, brooms, etc.
G R A P H I C S
** size limit for signatures is 500x500… that is the absolute largest size. you don’t have to fill this size up (you could have a text banner, a line of text and two 200x300 sigs for example) that’s just the size you have to play with. what it means is a sig can be more that 500px in either direction.
** size requirement for avatars is 100x100
** if you’re not great at making sigs, you can put a request in the graphics board
** both a sig and an avatar is a requirement!
** make sure you claim your pb! also pbs have to be real people. no anime stuff. real people. myspace royalty can be acceptable in most cases. but the admin reserves the right to reject any pb claim.
** make pb claims realistic please. make them fit. let’s not everyone pick random scene kids and bullsh** like that. make them age appropriate as well.
