THE RULES
While rules may be similar across all sites, please note ours may be slightly different. Since you are bound to the rules while on the site, you may as well read them. Please note occasional rule changes may take place, and if that occurs, staff will notify members of the changes.
GENERAL
ACCOUNTS: For each character that is made, there is to be a separate account. If you are confused as how to make a new account, please ask a staff member. You can register with any username and then change your account to your characters name (FIRST LAST) in all caps (ex. HARRY POTTER not Harry Potter or Harry J. Potter etc)
SPAMMING: Please do not over post in the cbox, or double post on games/threads on the sites.
NUMBER OF CHARACTERS: There is no limit to the number of characters you create, however, they all must be used. Don't make 7 characters and only post with 2.
FACE CLAIMS: Be realistic in who is playing your character. A 50 year old is unlikely to pass for a school age child. On another note, please don't use any person under the age of 13. For younger characters you can use an older teen who has acted for a while as long as they are over 13 at the current moment. To check who is currently available to use please see THIS thread.
MARY SUE/GARY STU: Please don't make your characters perfect. Those characters are actually quite boring. Everyone has flaws in the world, so it would stand to reason your characters would as well.
ABILITIES/MAGICAL POWERS: Magical folk who have special abilities are actually quite rare. As such we have limited the number of characters who have abilities. This number allowed is on a percentage based system and will change with the number of characters.
GODMODDING: Please don't control another person's character without the express consent of the other person. This does include whether or not a spell hit, but to be fair, the vast majority of spells will hit, or have to be blocked with another.
POST LENGTH: We do not have a word count requirement on this site. However, please give your partner enough to work with.
OUT OF CHARACTER
RESPECT: Please respect not only the staff but the other members as well. We're all here for fun, and deserve to be respected. This means don't bully, insult, fight, abuse etc. the other members. If you feel like something has happened to you in this manner please report it to a staff member. This does mean including evidence. We will hear both sides of the story though.STAFF: The staff work hard to make this site enjoyable for all. If you have any issues with anything don't be afraid to contact one of us. We're all very friendly. However, if we have made a decision it is not to be argued with. Rules are here for a reason. If you do feel something is unfair, we are open to hearing it, just in a calm manner.
ADVERTISING: Advertising other sites is perfectly okay, however may only take place in the advertisement boards (aka not in the cbox, or in your signature). If we can't advertise back, the advertisement will be deleted.
CBOX: All of the above rules apply to the chat box as well.
BANS: If someone is a repeat offender in breaking the rules, especially on the respecting others subject, the staff reserves the right to ban someone for a determined time. How long will depend on how often it has happened and the severity of the issue.
PASSWORD: We don't have many passwords here, but if you are given one, please keep it to yourself.
