General Site Stuff



1.) You are allowed no more than two characters on this site. If you do choose do have two, please remember that both need to be active. Also, remember to create a new account with every new character you make.

2.) Please 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 for a month will be deleted.

3.) Be respectful at all times. Any racial, nationalistic, sexual, or any type of discrimination at all will earn you a life time from the site. Clear?

4.) If you get into a arguement with another member DO NOT bring it into the rp or anywhere on this forum. This includes the CBOX!

5.) 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.

6.) 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.

Role Playing Rules


1.) 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. These kind of things happen in the real world, so they should happen in the Role Playing World.

2.) You may not by any means control the thoughts, actions, or emotions of any character but your own. This is known as God Modding (Not to be confused with Global Moderators ) or God Modding and is rarely ever tolerated on any forum let alone the more advanced ones.

3.) Also not allowed is the creatation of any Mary-Sue's or Gary-Stu's. They are what is refered to, in the fanfiction world, as "The perfect character."

A Mary-sue is usually flawlessly beautiful, she is kind and as sweet as honey. Everyone loves her even her enemies though they don't think they're worthy. Despite being so incredibly kind she can easily insult even the most intelligent of people with her 'scathing' remarks which usually consist of 'Shut up you meany!'

A Gary-Stu is unbelievably handsome. He is a rebel who can break the rules, and back talk all his teachers to the extremes and yet never get punished. He is gifted in all his subjects but he usually doesn't pay attention and yet still swings top grades. He is a loner who trusts no one but is surprisingly dating one of the main female characters.

4.) You must wait till you have been accepted before you start to role play, if you break this rule those threads will be locked. If you continue to RP after this you will get a warning.

Alright I think that pretty much covers everything,

Tom
