Site Rules
RPG Board Rules
[/li][/ul]
- Please show respect to your other board members. If you have an issue with a member bring it to a mod or admin. If you have a problem with one of their characters do not take it out on the character's creator. Bring your complaint to a mod or an admin, and action will be taken, depending on your complaint.
- Respect the staff members. What they say goes. You can argue your case if you wish, but once its been decided by a mod or admin, then the ruling is unlikely to change.
- Do not spam. Spamming is a bannable offence, and you will be temporarily banned.
- For your avatars please keep them within 150x150 pixels, and keep the images clean. For signatures, please keep the signatures at a manageable size. If they are too big you will be asked to remove the signature.
Do not hot link. You can easily host an image from fliker, photobucket or imageshack. There should be no reason for you to hot link. - Swearing/cursing is fine, just keep it to a PG-13 level, unless you're in the private RP area, in which case go nuts!
- In OOC (out of character) areas, please stay as on topic as possible.
- Please use proper English. I undertand English may not be your first language, or you may be dyslexic, but please use a grammar and spellchecker whenever possible.
Sticky type and short hand will not be tolorated.
RPG Board Rules
- Please keep all RP posts to a good length. Two sentances will not do so please try and keep your posts to at least 300 characters (characters, not words) in length.
- You are no allowed to post in the RPG boards until your character has been accepted and moved to the appropriate area. You can post in the OOC boards on joining.
- If your character is rejected you have 72 hours to make changes to the character and resubmit it for approval. If nothing is done in those 72 hours, the character will be move to the archive.
- If your character is moved to the archive but you still want to edit it and resubmit it, then you have thirty days to request the character back to make the changes.
- No more than three powers to a character. Any more and rejection is more than likely.
- When RPing, please stay as in character as possible. Short OOC posts are fine, provided you make them in (( )) symbols.
- If you submit a character from an anime, manga or game (Cloud Strife say) and give him a different name, but its obvious it a rip off it will be automatically rejected.
- That said, using a picture of a recognised character as an avatar for your own character is allowed, as long as your character is not a rip off of the character in the image.
- Please check, and recheck the locked powers and races thread.
- Do not pester and harass mods or admins to accept your character. We have lives outside of the Internet, and the more you pester the less likely we are to speed up.
- When opening a new thread make sure you make it specific if it is open or not.
- For example and open thread would be: [Thread title] (Open to all)
A closed thread would be: [Thread title] (closed)
A thread open or closed to a certain character would be: [Thread title] (Open to/closed to "character(s) name") - Please do not make multiple accounts. If you can't remember your password, leave a message in the C-Box and we'll do our best to help.
- Please keep all open RPing to a PG-13 level and below. If you see the thread as becoming explict (for whatever reason) please PM the mods or admins for the password to the private RP area. neglecting to do this will result in a temporary ban.
- Broken time line threads are fine and to be expected. Please though, keep track of what your character is doing, and make sure they're in no more than three threads at any one time (classes and dorms do not impinge on this).
- Slight God-modding is fine (ie. two people walking into the same building) but anything above that is strictly forbidden unless you have your RP partners permission.
- To ensure you're read the rules thoroughly, in the applications section, where it says keyword you must type the word: hayate.
(This keyword will change now and again, so its wise to check back now and then!)
