 The Rules;;
« Thread Started on Jun 15, 2008, 1:20pm »

When you join a role playing site, you HAVE to agree to rules. I mean, if you don't, then it brings chaos. You'll have people playing other characters and posts will be close to one word and it's just not fun. When you have rules, you have a nice, organized site that people will have fun on. Having rules forces people to show some of their skills. I know it gets boring, reading the rules over and over again since they are almost the same on every site, but some rules may differ. Not EVERY site is the same. So, please read and follow my rules. It's the right thing to do. Plus, if you don't, then you CANNOT be accepted.



MAKING A CHARACTER;;


When you are making your character you have to follow every one of these rules. If you do not, you have to suffer the consequences. You are allowed to make more than one character, but you have to make a new account. I don't like it when you post as one character but are on as another. It doesn't keep the site looking neat. Also, if you make another character, they have to be the opposite gender of your first character. So, if you make a girl, then you want another, you have to make a guy.



BEING ACCEPTED;;


In order to be accepted, you must have the secret words. There are two because I need to know you've read the rules and the plot. The secret word cannot be found right here. It is somewhere in the rules, but not at this exact place. You'll have to read on to find the word.



NOT BEING ACCEPTED;;


If you are not accepted, you are not posting anywhere. There is no place on the site for you to post. You are only allowed to talk in the chatbox and PM the admin. That is all. If you post anywhere else, then you get a warning and if you do it again, I will suspend your account. Please, don't make me do that.



ROLE PLAYING;;


When role playing, please no power play. DO NOT play anyone else's character. Believe it or not, people actually do that, so I have to post it. Also, do not double post. That's when you post something, then post again after wards. If you have something to add, edit the post and put what you want. That's why that edit button is there. And, I don't want people posting one liners. Make your post be at least a good, well-written paragraph. At the very least, eight sentences. Now, eight sentences is a very whimpy post. But, so please try to do more. One more thing, when posting, post in third person. That means you don't use "I" and "me". Say your character's name and "he" or "she".



RATING;;


I guess I will give my site a rating of PG-13. Let's keep it clean. Kissing only. If your characters must go into something more, don't post the details. Say that they went further, then skip to after wards. No one wants to read the disgusting details. So, please do that for me. Also, no using really "dirty" words. Don't drop the F-bomb or say the racist "N" word. I don't mind mild cussing, but don't curse in every sentence, or even every post. Just don't do it.



SIGNATURE;;


I hate it when the signature is too long and wide. The maximum dimensions your signature can be is 535x331. Also, I want you to use a real face as your character. Please, don't use yourself or a friend. Use a celebrity. I'm just looking out for your safety. You don't want some person to come and do some bad things, do you? I didn't think so. So, use a celebrity. One more thing, I am REQUIRING you to use someone. You have to at least have a 100x100 avatar.



DRAMA;;


I don't mind drama, that's what makes role playing fun, but I do mind if all the drama in the world is happening to your character. Let's stay in reality. Don't make everything dramatic happen to your character. Also, I do not mind if your character is a good character, but I do care if they are "Mary Sues". Don't make them perfect. No one is perfect. If I see that your character is like that, I will make you change whatever makes them sound perfect.



ACTIVENESS;;


I need you to be active for this site to work. If you are not active, nothing will work. I understand if you cannot be on for a day. Maybe you are busy or have a lot of homework. I am pretty lenient with that stuff. But, if you haven't been on for ages and you haven't posted in the absences, then we'll have a problem. I will do all in my power to try and bring you back, but if I've tried everything, and you still aren't back, I will delete your account. If you have more than one account, I expect you to be active on ALL of them. Don't make more characters than you can handle.



OTHER;;


Don't get too into role playing. This is fictional stuff, not real. If your character is not really liked, it's no big deal. I love you, so you have nothing to worry about. I know some people base their characters off themselves, but seriously, don't get too much into it. It's all down hill from there.



NAMING YOUR CHARACTER;;


When you are naming your character, don't name them after anyone. There may be someone actually named Harry Potter out there, but there will be no one named that here. Make up your own names. This includes last names too. Nothing from books, movies, celebrities, etc. Come on. This is a role play site, you are supposed to be creative.



PEOPLE;;


This is a real person site. There are no wizards, witches, vampires, werewolves, pixies, etc. This is a real person boarding school. Humans only! So, don't say your person knew any of these creatures. They do not exist. Okay? So, nothing about vampires or anything unless you are mentioning a book or movie.



CHILDREN;;


Okay, so hormones may be going crazy, but don't let them get too crazy. Students and teachers cannot have kids unless they get my approval. You may be asking how you get my approval. Well, I'll tell ya. I need a PM from both people. Only one, though, has to tell me why you guys want a kid and why you think you should get one. We'll make this like The Giver by Lois Lowry. If you are a rules breaker (I mean my rules, not the schools) then I won't accept it. I reserve the right to reject any applications I wish. Savvy?



AGES;;


The ages are the following:
Freshman -> Fifteen
Sophomore -> Sixteen
Junior -> Seventeen
Senior -> Eighteen



SINS;;


There are seven Deadly Sins. These are the ones you have to choose from:
Envy -> Jealousy
Lust -> The need for love
Pride -> The desire to be better than others
Greed -> To have excessive amounts of something
Sloth -> Lazy
Gluttony -> Wasteful
Wrath -> Anger



CLIQUES;;


These are the cliques you can choose from:
Jock -> Does sports; is athletic
Popular -> Is popular, good looking; everyone wants to be them
Punk -> Listens to punk music, peircings, dyed hair
Nerd -> Smart, not liked by populars
Rebel -> Does their own thing at their own time
Outcast -> Floater; Has a lot of friends in different cliques



HAVE FUN!;;


This is supposed to be fun, so have fun! I know I find role playing fun, you should too. So, now that we have covered all the rules, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. The rules secret word is purple jam. Well, that was fun, right? Right! I just want to let you all know that I reserve the right to add or change any of my rules. Hence, they are my rules. Follow these rules, friends, and you will have a very enjoyable time on my forum.



I reserve the right to add or change any rules.
I got this niftyness from F I R E B O L T `` past meets present. I thought it looked pretty.
