Please read and respect all rules before posting anywhere.
FIRST AND FOREMOST, READ THE REVIEWS!
If you haven't read the books, but would like to join, those help immensely! But you DO NOT have to have read the books, for we have everything you need to know written down!
Have Fun- Everyone here is here to enjoy themselves and have a good environment in which to play.
Spamming - Spamming/Double Posting is not allowed. Spamming is where you post USELESS information or just a smilie in your response. Double posting is posting something then not editing your post and going right ahead and posting again. There is an edit button for a reason; use it.
Flaming - Flaming is not tolerated at all. If you are caught flaming you will be banned; the end.
Discrimination - Absolutely NOT tolerated. Examples are: insulting one's religious, sexual or other personal beliefs, AS WELL AS who their character's religious, sexual and personal beliefs.
Accusations - If you believe that someone is disrespecting other's or disobeying the rules PM ME, ODETTE, OR A MOD FIRST before taking matters into your own hands. You must send us PROOF of any of your accusations.
Swearing - Swearing is allowed on this forum, and HEAVILY encouraged! HOWEVER if you threaten people with it then we will be forced to ban you.
Rudeness - Being rude to any Admin or Member will NOT be tolerated. It can cause arguments and flame wars, which will result in warning and suspensions to those involved. It also goes for posting behind another's back. if you have a disagreement, handle the situation maturely and calmly work it out together. If it gets to the point where you cannot resolve it yourselves, then don't be afraid to contact a staff member.
Accounts - You are allowed more than one character, so you may have that amount of accounts. Make sure to state who else you play, preferably in your application. Don't hog all the canons to yourself, however, you are allowed to play one, but we will allow you to play more if you ask us first.
Posting in the Right Forum - Pay attention to where you post. Make our jobs easier and WATCH where you post things. If you accidentally post something in the wrong forum let an admin know and we will move it.
Repeat Topics - Check before you post something. A topic like that may already have been posted in the same forum. An admin will close the newer one if we find a repeat topic.
Multiple Posting - This is when you post the same thread many times just to get attention. Doing this may result in a ban (but you will get warnings first) be considerate people.
Characters - You are in charge of your characters and your characters ONLY. You may not claim or RP another's character. If you want to pair your character with someone else's PLEASE ask their permission first. You must also wait until I approve you. As far as Canons go, you may only play ONE but you are allowed to ask us if you may play another.
DO NOT GODMOD OR POWERPLAY - This is very bad, there is no reason to Godmod at all. Do not decide another players actions; this includes writing them out of a topic, saying you hit them without their permission, etc...
RolePlaying - Anyone can join an RP. Nobody can be excluded unless they have been suspended or banned. Anyone can create a RP session, but it should always be placed under the proper category.
We do not want to hear of anyone being yelled at for replying to a topic that doesn't say it is for one or two people specifically. If you do not indicate the participants next to your topic title, then anyone is free to reply. On the other hand, if you reply, do not just invade a thread, look for a good insertion point first.
As we are sure there will be players of various ages, please make sure to put a warning in your title or post if it deserves a rating higher than PG-13. We DO allow threads with the NC-17 rating, just make sure to mark them, preferably with an xxx in the title.
Face Claims- Your character MUST have a face claim! Whether its a celebrity, a model, or a stock image, YOU MUST have one! Please, no Anime pictures, and no self drawn pictures, and no self portraits of yourself. <3
ABOUT DISPLAY NAMES: Once you sign up, you can pick ANY username you desire. Though, as you fill out your character profile, you'll need to change your display name to that of your character. To do this, simply click on [Profile] up top, then click Modify Profile, enter your password again, under the already saved one, then go down to Display Name to change your name. Then it'll show up in your posts as your characters name.
