general ,.
--- First of all you must respect everybody on here. We're all here to have fun, so don't pick fights with people, they won't get you anywhere. So respect the admins, other members, any form of discrimination won't be allowed.
--- Always listen to the admins. Don't pick fights with us, or argue with us. Whatever we say goes, you are allowed to give us suggestions and constructive critism, but we're trying our best here.
--- Never ever steal someone else's work. Whether it's graphics, applications or even posts. It's just not cool, always give credit to the right people, or ask for their permission.
--- Don't spam.
--- Be active, when joining try to get your application up asap, we don't like having empty accounts. Besides what's the point in joining when you're not planning on posting anywhere?
applying ,.--- Use the given application template, don't alter it. We created it this way for a reason, so just stick with it.
--- For every character you make, you will have to make a new account, even for twins. THE MAXIMUM CHARACTERS TO ONE E-MAIL ACCOUNT CAN HAVE IS FIVE, NO MORE PLEASE.
--- Do not nag at us to check your application. We will look at it whenever we have time. We have lives outside of rp as well.
--- Unfinished applications need to be posted in the right board and we expect them to be finished within four days.
--- Until you are accepted you can not post anywhere. Only your application and reserves, that's it.
--- Your display name should be simple and clean your character's first, middle and last name only, without anything else, and all in lower caps.
--- When applying make sure you have a sig and avatar up and to change your display name.
--- Be realistic. This goes for the character's age, compared with their pb's face. As well as a history. Not everyone is gonna be extremely rich and all that.
characters ,.--- No character is perfect. It is no fun to read an application, of someone who has perfect hair and teeth, is the best in high school and liked by everyone.
--- Put detail into your application. We are allowed to deny characters. We will always give you pointers on how to make your application better though.
--- We all like drama. But not everyone got abused, has divorced parents, married their brother and whatever you can think of.
--- Your character can only be portrayed by a real celebrity, no people from myspace, randomly found or anything. Real celebrities and nothing else.
posting ,.--- No chat speak. This is a literate rp site. Use proper punctuation and grammar, we understand some mistakes, but the spellcheck is your friend, it's there for a reason please use it.
--- Posting minimum is 450+ words. It's not that much, if you use enough detail it should be easy. We understand writer's block on occasion. But not forever. So if you can't handle it, don't join. It's not nice to post 1000 words and only receive 400 back.
--- Your characters are not supernatural or able to read other people's mind. Keep that in mind. You only control your character, no one else's.
--- Cussing, drugs and alcohol abuse, as well as mature content is allowed. This is a regular life rp, and that happens in real life. Try not to cuss too much though and when posting mature content, please put a warning in the title.
--- Don't nag at people to post. I understand it's not easy waiting on a reply for over a few days. And you are allowed to ask the other person, but don't start nagging about it. Other people have lives too.
--- In addition to that last rule. Do try to reply in a timeley fashion. When someone replies on a daily basis or so, it's not nice to keep them waiting two weeks. Unless there are personal reasons behind it, please let the other person know.
--- All posts should be in size 1 or 0 font. Don't give all flashy colors to them, only in the aim and msn threads that is allowed.
--- Always post in third person, past tense.
--- If your character gets pregnant, let us know.
graphics ,.--- All icons should be 100x100 and be sure to have one up when you post your applications.
--- Your signature should never stretch the page. If you want you can request one and we will gladly make something for you.
--- No nudity or anything inappropiate in your signatures.
