Yes yes...I understand. No one likes them.
However, they are necessary for the smooth
running of a board. No secret phrases. The
honor system is much nicer, right? Don't
make me regret this...pretty please?[/align]
OOC[/color]
1. Respect. Number one rule, and the most important.
Respect for your fellow player, your staff. This includes
being a royal pain in the ass. If the staff gets a lot of
PMs, or IMs about you ticking them off, that's a warning.
First Password: Kelly Gibbs
2. Please read the background information before you
ask questions. It is really annoying when a person asks
a question that they should have read. Guests for the
most part can be excused. But if you are a member, and
you ask a silly question, that means you didn't take the time
to read out the background information that was painstakingly
planned out, and posted for you. And that isn't nice. At all.
3. Do not insult the staff, do not insult other members of this
board. Goes right up there with respect. That is the one thing
that I can not stand. I will not hesitate to ban you if you cross
the line, and I can assure you that for the most part, you should
know where that line is. This is pretendy fun times, everyone. No
one should have to worry about getting their feelings hurt.
START UP[/color]
1. Register with your character's first and last names. No
duplicates of characters. Second Password: Caf-Pow
2. Within a week of your character being accepted, please have
some kind of visual of your character. An avatar, or sig would be
great. That said, avatars can be 200x200 or less, and sigs need to
be between less then 500 pixels in width. Preferably less than 300
pixels in height.
3. Bios will be checked over carefully, and all areas must be
filled out. This includes sample posts. Only one staff member
needs to approve your bio. Please make sure to check your bio
in a timely manner. Also, please, do not bug the staff about
checking your bios. If a staff member is on, one statement
should be made about a bio being finished in the c-box. We will
get to it, promise. We want to play with you as much as you want
to play, I promise!
4. There is no fighting or competitions over characters. If someone
has a character reserved, please do not ask if you can "compete"
for said character. The answer is no. Sorry.
5. Character limits. There is a limit of three characters per player. If you
want to apply for a fourth, please talk to an admin. We will give you
permission to apply for a fourth character depending on your activity with
your previous three characters. So...Be active!
IC RULES[/color]
1. Post length should be at least 50 words. I don't want to use
labels, so I'm not going too. But...I've been around the RPing world
for a while now. Third Password: Dinozzo 50 words is not a lot. If you are having trouble
reaching that, make sure you have included a bit of dialogue, your
character's thoughts, actions, reactions to the other person in the
thread with them. That said, don't be a purple proser. Think about
your posts carefully. Do people really need a paragraph to be
able to tell that your character has blue eyes?
2. At least two IC posts a week to be considered active. If two weeks
pass, and there is no absence notice, then you will be put on a
warning list. Two weeks after that, your character will be taken and
put up for adoption. There is nothing more annoying then an
important canon character being abandoned. Really. OCs may have
a bit of leeway on this subject, but canons will be taken, and there is
a high likelihood that you will not get them back.
3. Grammar is good. Grammar is your friend. Spell Check is like...your
best friend. There is nothing more annoying or painful to read then a
error-ridden post. If you aren't good with grammar and spelling, and you
know this, do us all a favor and type up your posts in a word processor
before posting them up.
