Role Playing Rules
1) NO POWER PLAYING! No matter how many times people say this, DONT POWER PLAY! ITS BAD! BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD! Okay. Just for those of you who don't know, this is an example of powerplaying.
Jenny: *throws dagger in Bob's direction*
Bob: *catches Jenny's dagger and throws it back, hitting her in the face.*
Bob = BAD! You cannot act for someone else's character. What Jenny did was correct, as she waited to see Bob's reaction.
2) NO RACISM! It's really bad. So please don't
3) Don't make fun of people. It's cruel. If you and someone else's characters are arguing, don't drag it out of character! Your character and you, your real self, are different people so don't take things so personally dude!
4) Avoid one lining! It's really not cool and it's hard to make a decent sized post out of a one or two-liner!
5) When talking out of character... please use [ ] or (( )) or (OOC so that people know its not your character talking! Please don't use stars.. as there as some people that use actions as stars.. so it will be confusing!
6) Right now I'll say this, There is a 3 line minimum in a post. One-liners are so incredibly annoying. If you fail to do so, your post shall be deleted or you will be warned.
7) No double posting! If I catch you double posting I will delete BOTH posts and you will recieve a warning. There may be *some* exceptions, but very few. Please refrain, this is why we have a modify button.
Extra Rules
1) Please, every character can only have one pet. We don't want the site flooded with animals for buddah's sake!
2) Smoking and Drinking (getting drunk) are allowed.
3) The shame I have speaking about this openly... Sex IS ALLOWED! But please, keep it tasteful and do not go into graphics. No one wants to read that, but if you absolutely MUST, please put a warning on the thread title.
4) You cannot change your name every couple of days. This confuses everyone, so please try to refrain from changing your name.
5) No pregnancies! Unless you are graduated. We don't want the site flooded with babysitters and screaming infants that you don't properly care for. ((There are FEW exceptions that are based on reasoning and plot points))
6) Please but a smiley at the bottom of your application and pm me(admin) with the word "duck" to prove that you've read the rules.
7) No having special powers or anything like that. Come on, this is real life. Yes, I know there are psycics around and what not, but only very few have a true gift so lets just stay away from that all together.
8) NO Out of Character fighting! RP drama and cat fights are great for any role-playing board, but don't bring it out of character, thats not cool and no board needs it.
9) No PMing people and advertising sites. We have an entire board for you to advertise sites and people can read it if they want to. If anyone PMs you advertising a site, PM an administrator and we will talk to that person. Its annoying and not everyone wants to read those so just don't do it.
That's all for now. Heh, talk about a lot. But please abide or you will get a pm.. and I assure you.. it won't be lovely!
***There will be more added as time goes along, so please check back***
NOTE:::This is just a general rule, but seriously people, when you are a new member, you may post your application and sig claim ONLY! You may not post anywhere else, and that includes Out of Character boards. If you do, it will be deleted. The exception is if you are advertising your site in our advertise board, other than that, NO!
