- No Godmoding. This means that your character cannot control other characters or know things automatically. There are no exceptions to this rule.
- No Powerplaying. This means that your character cannot be invincible during a fight. They cannot dodge every move and be accurate with every punch, kick, or throw. Be realistic.
- Please roleplay in past tense and third person.
- Please make each post a minimum of 350 words. There is a word count installed on the site so you don't have to worry about having to count your words as you go or use microsoft word.
- Please check for grammar errors and use spell check. Nobody is perfect, but we'd like to understand what you're trying say in your post. Also, do not use chatspeak in your post.
- Sex, swearing, drugs, pregnancy and violence are all allowed on this site. But this does not mean that you can abuse it. Make sure to put a warning sign on any threads that will contain mature content.
- You must post AT LEAST twice a week. The posts can either both be made with one of your characters or you could do one post for each of two characters, etc etc.
- If you do not post for two weeks, without warning or a valid reason {writersblock IS a valid reason} we will move all of your material to the archives. if you return, we will simply move it back.
- You are allowed to have as many characters as you want, just make a seperate account for each character. Say you have made your first character, you must have at least fifteen posts (ooc and games don't count, they have to be rp posts) with that character before you can make a new character.
- You are given ten days to complete your application once you signed up for the new character account. During this time you are permitted to post in OOC sections, as well as board games. If the the application is not finished in the alotted ten days, your unfinished application will be moved the the 'Denied' section. You will no longer be permitted to post anywhere on the board with that account. Once you finished the application, let an admin know, we will move it, and you will be free to post anywhere you like.
- You are allowed to sign up with any account name when you first join, but after you're accepted you must change your display name to the first and last name of your character {middle name is optional}.
- For your character's face please use real life models, not drawings or anime pictures. Also, please do not use yourself.
- Please use the template we have provided for you in the application section. If you do not use this template, you will not be accepted.
- Be creative. We don't want a million Barbie and Ken clones running around on here, and we don't want a bunch of "emo" kids, either. Try to make your character different and unique.
- On that note, no Mary-Gary Sues. As in, do not make your character perfect.
- For signatures, please don't make them wider than 500 px and no taller than 400 px. We don't want to stretch the board. You are permitted to have icons that are either 100 x 100 px or 100 x 200 px.
- No out of character drama. We all have real life drama. I don't know about you but most of us come here to have fun. I do not have the patience for petty arguments. Highlight the space between the title of this thread and the very first rule for the codeword.
- Be respectful to everyone on this site. If you have a problem with somebody, then PM the admin. Do NOT start a fight in the cbox or in a public thread. This will make us look bad to those who might consider joining the site, and it causes stress for members.
- If things get out of hand, you will be temporarily banned. If you continue to misbehave, you will be permanently banned . 3 strikes and you're out. {there may be some exceptions. if what you've done is bad enough, you may get only one warning.}
- Don't steal anybody else's characters or ideas. If you do, we'll ban you and report you to the proboards administration for plagiarism so you won't be able to join any proboards.
- And the last but most important rule....HAVE FUN!!
