The Rules
This is just a general guide to help you as you apply to the site and continue on it. These could be changed as the admins think of other things that you should know.
1st offence = Pm Warning
2nd Offence = Public Warning
3rd = Banned for a week
4 th = Banned from the forum
1. Keep all advertisments in our advertising section. That is what it is there for and that is where it should stay. DO NOT avertise in the chat box!
2. No spamming, flooding, or double posting is allowed. There is and edit button. USE IT
3. If you get into a arguement with another member DO NOT bring it anywhere on this forum.
4. Signatures should not stretch the board. Max width x height is 415 x 400 Please keep reading the first word of the password is red to find the rest of it you must keep reading.
5. In real life, no one is perfect. The same goes here too. So keep that in mind when you are creating your character. No Mary/Gary Sue characters. In other words, keep it believable.
6. You will create a character profile using the application provided, and then get sorted. Everyone gets sorted, even adults. When your profile is approved, the administrator approving it will sort you in the same post. They will do this based on your biography. The only exception to getting sorted is if you have a cannon character that already has a house.
7. Speaking of character profiles. Please put some thought into them. Make us really "see" your character. This especially goes for original characters. For cannons, do the best you can. The admins reserve the right to ask you to make changes to your profile before we accept it. If you need any help, please ask one of us.
8. Please do not bug the admins about accepting you. We can get pretty busy, but we do try and stay on top of things.
9. No changing houses. You were sorted into your house for a reason.
10. No god moding. You cannot possibly foresee what another character will do, so don't pretend to.
11. Just as your profile, put some thought into your posts. Please try to have at least three or four sentences two paragraphs would be preferred. This makes it easier for others to reply to you. NO ONE LINERS.
12. Please change your display name to that of your character. This means no display names like pOtTeRfangurl23 and such.
13. As far as special abilities (animangi, legitimous, occumancy, etc) go. No one below 6th year should even think about having them. If you are sixth year or above, PM an admin your request for an ability. Adults can just include them in their profile. But please, keep it believable.
14. You are allowed to post mature content. This is pertaining only to posts no pornographic links or pictures are allowed anywhere on this forum. But if you do post mature content please give a warning to others who may find it offensive or take it to a locked forum so you can have privacy. Now when I say mature I mean exactly that. I don't want to see any childish smut that is in no way mature nasty and uncreative. What I mean by this is basically whole pages of F*** my P***Y over and over and filthy talk. That isn't mature, sounds mature to those who can't differentiate but it isn't. In real life that type of thing only happens when the person is young or a sleeper/very *friendly* person/easy etc. No offence ment but please keep it mature.
15.The administrators reserve the right to warn anyone about any rule breaking. If you break the rules too many times, you may find yourself banned. Just relax and have fun!
16. Be respectful to other members. Disrespect and/or flaming will not be tolerated. The second password is rose, put the words together and Voila passywordy!
17. Have fun! If you have any questions, please feel free to PM one of us.
