Rules

[Ayanna]

RULES {OOC}

01) Respect. Respect everyone that is a part of this forum. If you have a problem with anyone, then please contact and admin or mod so we can solve the problems as quickly and painlessly as possible.

02) Discrimination while not roleplaying will not be tolerated.

03) You must register before posting an application.

04) Double-posting is allowed. But really only try to make it double-posting; not triple-posting or anything more. But there will be absolutely no spamming or anything of that sort.

05) The above includes PMs (private messages.) Just don’t do it, okay?

06) If you have any ideas or suggestions, then please visit the appropriate board and post a new topic. =] We want to improve the site in any way possible. However, we ask that if you suggest an idea and it's accept (thread trackers, etc), USE IT.

07) Swearing is allowed.

08) No hotlinking! Please upload any pictures you wish to share OOC onto photobucket or tinypic or any other picture site like those.

09) No posting any pornographic material.

10) Do not PM any of the admins or mods, asking to become a mod.

11) Signatures are allowed. They can be no bigger than 550 width and 300 height. One signature per account. Avatars must be 100x100 - and, no, that does not mean setting large pictures at those numbers. They must be square!

12) Give admins at least 48 hours to look over/accept your application. Please be patient. Yes, you may see us online, but we have an entire board to run and real lives, so we may not get to your application right away. After 48 hours, if no one has responded, you may "bump" your application by simply posting the word bump as a reply to the application. Do not harass admins through PMs or in the general chat area.

RULES {IC}

01) Your username must be your characters name. You can have any username when you first register, but once your character is accepted, you *Fryday!* must change your display name to your First characters Name.

02) Swearing is allowed. The secret phrase is perfect time of day. However, if you cannot spell out the entire word, then don't use it. No f*ck or sht or anything like that. Got it? Good.

03) Due to ProBoards TOS, "adult content" is not permitted. Sooo, not sexually graphic posts will be allowed. It's not my choice, so don't get mad at me.

04) Do not power play, god-mod, etc. It won’t be tolerated.

05) You may play a total of up to 10 characters. Feel Free to pick what species each are, but no more than 3 of the same species.

06) No Mary Sues, Gary Stews, etc. All character must be flawed in some way. Hanna (the Headmistress) is actually a huge fan of [fictional] drama. So, the more tragic the character's background/life, the better!

07) All roleplaying posts must be done in 3rd person point of view and past tense! So none of this: Erica walks along the lake shore. She is thinking about the boy she fancies. Etc.

08) Please don’t just kill off your character. Let us know if you’d like to stop playing a certain character or if you’re leaving us.

09) No hotlinking! Please upload any pictures you wish to share IC onto photobucket or tinypic or any other picture site like those.

10) You may be in more than one place at once.

11) Please put some effort and description into your roleplay posts! Show what you’re character is feeling or doing; don’t just have them talk. However, there is no word-count.

12) No chat talk while roleplaying!

13) Use proper grammar and punctuation and paragraph separation. It makes things easier to read. Also, when a character speaks, generally that means the beginning to a new paragraph.

14) Having OOC conversations while roleplaying is fine. Just be sure to put them (in parenthesis and italicized), so that we know what is OOC and what's IC.

15) You can rp side characters, such as pups. When they are old enough though you will need someone else to roleplay them.

16) Each character has an element, wolves when they reach their general mark they will gain the chance to learn their second.
