fifteen simple rules, follow them and all shall be good. Easy peesy punkin skeezy. Yes I did just say that.
- Rp rating This rp is rated pg-13 to R. Yes sex, drugs, violence, are allowed, as long as [R] is in the title of the thread should you go past pg-13. Also please don't go too into detail & no pornographic or overly suggestive images, this is an rp not a porno. Oh and you've been warned so don't go complaining to me if you read a thread that has mature content and is labeled.
- Cursing Please keep cursing to a minimum, in other words if you swear every other word or make a sentence of obscenities you will be warned. It is unnecessary and makes you, the rper, seem utterly insufficient and well quite plainly stupid. So please lighten my load and don't abuse this.
- spelling & grammar Please use proper spelling & grammar, there's a spell check button for a reason. I know some people are horrible at spelling & proper grammar but try your best. Don't look like a fool, it's just not worth the effort. Also with this being said DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT use chat speak in either IC or OOC. It can be difficult to read and quite irritating. However in OOC some chat speak is permissible such lol, lmao, lmfao, nvm, nm, g2g, ttyl, wtf, gd, gt, etc. Pretty much in ooc just so long as u dOnt SpeEk lyke dis I'm good.
- powerplaying & godmodding Power playing & godmodding will not be tolerated. , but I expect no one to abuse them. If someone punches you chances are you'll get hit, you can't dodge every move. It makes the role playing boring & stupid. If you don't know what these terms mean then please leave because this rp is not for you.
- post length All posts must be at least 400 words, feel free to make longer posts, but please don't write a novel. One liners will get you a warning, after three one liners your gone for good. I understand that everyone has off days, but you should still be able to at the very least make a 350 word post. Also please try to make it interesting, no one wants to read a post that's boring and thus hard to reply to. Oh and for your convenience I've put a word counter on the bottom of every page, I suggest you use it.
- respect Respect is key, if you have nothing nice to say to someone don't say it. Be nice & respectful to all, it makes life easier. I don't care if you can't stand someone you will respect them non the less or you shall be out of here faster then you can think. In character however it's fine, characters are allowed to fight and disrespect each other, after all drama is fun. Just keep it out of OOC.
- Personal Information Don't give out personal info it's unnecessary and it's to keep you safe. Do not use your real name, use an alias. Do not give out where you live. You may give your age if you wish but never hesitate to say no, same thing goes with gender. The only thing I ask of you is how long you've been rping for, this is for my own knowledge as well as everyone else's to allow us to gage how developed your posting is/will become.
- Activity Please please please be active, I cannot stress this enough. If your leaving for a more then three day let us know, post in the OOC sub board titled absence. There will be regular activity checks every month, they will last a week & three days (a total of 10 days). The secret word is boo. That's it after that I'll give three days to notify me if you didn't post in the activity check, after that your account shall be deleted and your character will be back up for grabs. The only exceptions to this rule will be those who post in the absence board prior to activity check.
- Staff The word of staff is the law, disobey them you disobey me and thus shall be kicked off of here. If you have a problem with one of the staff members or one of their decisions pm me. I will assess the situation from there.
- Signatures & Avatars Signatures are to be no bigger then 500 x 300 & avatars no bigger or smaller then 100 x 100. Also you must have both to be accepted and they must be of your celebrity. Also no pornographic or overly suggestive picture please, this is an rpg not a porn ring.
- Display names Display names must be the same as your character's name, also all letters must be lower case (see my display name for example). User names, ooc name, etc. don't really matter, well just so long as they are appropriate and unfoolish like (such as SmExxY3453, or lovinyou17890876867, etc.).
- Characters one, that's 1, character per account no exceptions, also please no more then two accounts (which means no more then 2 characters).
- Days To apply Everyone has two week (14 days) from the day they register to apply, after that they are given another week to fix any mistakes if there are any on there applications. Also no posting in IC areas until your application has been accepted & moved to the accepted sub board.
- Perfection No one is perfect so don't make them that way, give them flaws, it adds drama. Plus they're more fun to play if they have flaws. No Mary-sues/Gary-sues will be accepted, if any are seen the person responsible will be asked to give them more flaws. With this being said in character you can't be absolutely perfect either, after all every character will have flaws.
- Celebrities All characters must have a celebrity face, no 'found on ms' or 'found on google' under pb. I want real celebs like Alexis Bledel, Emmy Rossum, etc. I will accept other people things that are well known and not just for being on myspace. These include Jac Vanek, Audrey Kitching, Alex Evans, etc. Once a celeb is taken you can not use it, not even for twins (unless the celeb is the twin of the other celeb and they look alike, but they must be two different people).
Please please please obey the rules, one for my sanity & two because if you don't I shall chop off thine head ;D .....mwahdee-mwahdee-haha....Oh and the real secret word is; wake up, wake up, this is not a test. . .
