This thread contains the Official Site Rules. We will be using a Three-Strike method. This means that if you ignore the rules three times, you are gone. No questions asked. To avoid this, please read the rules.
1. No spamming, please. Spamming wastes time that could be used for something else. Spam-posts will be deleted and the poster warned. The first time will not count as a strike, but don’t test us.
2. No canons. This is an Alternate Universe RPG. That means no Hermione Granger, or Sirius Black. You are, however, free to use a canon surname, they just can’t be related to the characters created by Ms. Rowling.
3. There are no Celebrity Claims. We will be using animated characters, only. No animated pictures of celebrities, either. The reason for this rule is that there will always be a dispute over a character. Everyone has a cartoon/video game that has a character that they like. And, there are always new animated shows, so there are no limits as far as not enough characters to claim, there are plenty. In the event that there is dispute over a character claim, both/all involved will have to pick someone else, simple as that.
4. We want you to be creative, so don’t use a name you saw in a FanFic, or on another site, unless you both permission and proof of permission from the creator. Screenshots of a message giving permission are a good way to prove you have permission. You will have to host the image yourself, and be sure the message and the sender are viewable in one shot.
5. We love special abilities, but there are some things that just won’t be allowed. We will keep a list of Abilities. It will be comprised of the names and powers/limits of the Ability, how many people have it, and who has it. To be clear on something, you may not use an ability from your claim, unless told otherwise.
6. Do not repeatedly ask an admin/mod to look at your application. We get to it when we do. We ask that you don’t post an application until it is complete, as well.
7. No fighting Out of Character. We don’t have time to play Referee. Any OOC fighting and you will receive a warning. Do it again and you get a strike.
8. Use a real Email Address. It will be important later.
9. No editing Character Applications once they have been approved. If we see this being done, you will be asked to fix it ASAP. If you continue changing it, you get a strike.
10. Sexual Content. There will be no sexual content RPs on public boards. If you must post this way, please PM Jason Tenada, the Tier 2 Admin. He is the only one who can give you access to the Mature Content Board. Nobody, including the Main Admin can do this other than Tenada. Now, if we see this type of RPing and it is not in the MCB, it will be locked and you will asked whether you'd like to have permission into the MCB, or have the whole thread deleted. If there is no response, it will be moved to our Pending Threads Board.
11. When making an RP Thread, please use the Block Quote tags. It makes things look so much better.
12. To keep people from posting little snippets and such, we will be using a 200 Character Minimum on ALL RP BOARDS. Do not try to get around this by quoting the previous RPer or hitting the enter key a few times, or using the space bar too many times. 200 is not that much, but if you know you can't post 200+, please, don't register. IT would waste the time of several people.
