Rules

[Illyria]

It may seem like a lot to read, but please read the rules carefully, don't just skim.

[/blockquote][/size]the basics;;

01. This site needs to be a active site. I know that you can't get on every day, but if you can't get on at least 3 times a week, then this site is not for you. Let an admin know if you're going to be gone for over 5 days.

02. You can have as many characters as you want, but there are some rules. Only one character per account. And if you do have more than one character, please keep each of your accounts active. We don't need useless accounts laying around.

03. If you register a canon, you MUST role-play that canon at least once every four days. If I find that your canon character is not active, I will give it to someone else who will be able to use it more. I know that not everyone can get on the computer every day, but if you can't get on at least three times a week, then obviously this site isn't for you.

04. Please don't do this. It happens a lot. It may be easier, but still. If you have another character already made and accepted please don't post -see so and so- for RP Sample. You need to write a new sample, focusing on the character you are claiming/creating.

05. Respect all of the staff members. Being disrespectful to someone, especially someome with power over you, will not get you far.

06. No asking staff if you can become a staff. We will choose who we think are capable of being staff, if you ask us your request will be ignored and your chances of becoming staff will be ruined.

07. NO SPAMMING! Don't join a thread just to say, "Hey, come join our thread!"

08. Don't bug a person saying, "WHY HAVEN"T YOU POSTED ON OUR THREAD! POST!" Try to post as soon as you can, and do not pester like this.

in character rules;;

01. NO GODMODING, please & thanks and no mary sue-ing either. Don't know what these are? PM me or google it. and don't get all psychic with your character. Pretend like you don't know a secret, or if something bad is going to happen to your character dont run away from it. (Unless your character actually is a psychic, of course!)

02. This site rating Is PG-13. Cursing is allowed, but not excessively. If you must write a sex scene, title the post with an [R], please.

03. PLEASE write something worth reading in your posts. Not just 1 liners. You must write a least one paragraph which is atleast seven discriptive sentances. More will be accepted. Be descriptive!

04. No chat speak. If you talk like this on all your other sites or whatever I don't care. It's hard for me to understand and looks ugly. This is not allowed in the in character threads nor the out of character threads.

05. Please use proper spelling and grammar. I understand if you make a spelling error. But it's also possible to go back and edit a post. Please capitalize the first letter of the first word in your sentance and all names. I expect you are above 6th grade and know spelling and grammar.

06. Posts should always be in third person and past tense. Exept when your character is talking.

signatures and avatars;;

01. You must have both. Most people like to have a general idea of who they are talking to looks like. But you can take as long as you need to get a signiture and avatar. I know how hard it is to get good signitures, but avatars should be pretty easy. Get a avatar ASAP. If you post in a Role Playing thread before setting up your avi/siggy, I have the right to place a temporary avatar in place, until you find one yourself.

02. Avatars should not be bigger nor smaller then 100x100

03. Try not to cram large photos as an avatar/icon. The picture will only look blurry, not very good. It'd be best to use a proper avatar, which can easily be found.

04. Coding to center a signature is: [center*][/center*] without the *.

05. Absolutely no nudity.

c-box;;

01. Don't spam the c-box. Spam is small pointless annoying messages. Conversations are welcomed. That's what it's for. But absolutley no SPAM.

02. Also, no advertising. It's okay to have your site linked to your name, but don't draw attention to it. And no flat-out advertising, like saying "Hey people come to my site!" or anything related to that.

03. Lastly, no cursing or fighting. This is not tolerated at all. You will be suspended for a day or two if this happens and if it continues being banned from the site is an option.

04. Icons aren't required in the Cbox, but it'd look nice if you had one. Please try to get one, and use it.

Your Admin,
Illyria
