THE RULES
registration
● when you register, you may use any name you like. afterward you should change it to your character's first middle last name, like so: harry james potter. ● if you are making an original character, check the ban list to make sure we have no current bans. ● if you wish to make a canon character, reserve it, don’t sit around and wait until you’re done with your application. while we aren't a first come, first serve, we do like to know who you are making. most people will choose another character if they see the one they want reserved. if there is more than one application, the staff will decide which application they think works best. ● please do not post in any of the ic boards until your application has been accepted,(unless you’re posting a reserve form for a canon character). this includes all game threads, plotters, and in character threads. ● we do not have a limit on the number of characters you can have, but we do ask that you keep them all active and take into consideration the male/female ratio. ● if you would like to kill your character off, or any other major plot, (pregnancy, loss of a limb, etc.), please pm one of the admins beforehand. the admin team will then go over your request, and depending on the situation, accept or deny the plot idea. ● this site is rated "use some common sense." proboards dictates that we must be PG13. If you think the thread might be risky, please label it! ● before choosing your characters name, please check and make sure no other characters already have the same name! there are loads of names out there, and diversity is always a good thing! ● please do not pester the staff about looking over your app. it's fine to let us know it's done, but we don't need to know five times. chances are, we have seen the app and are discussing it or pretty busy.
chat box
● first and foremost, we will not tolerate any spamming of the c-box. it is there for communication purposes, and we can and will take it off if need be. ● be nice to other members. we know that some of your charries might be sworn enemies or something, but that doesn't mean that you have that same vendetta against the player. so be mature and keep the fights to the threads. ● absolutely no advertising in the cbox. if we see any advertising, (unless you've linked a website to your name in the c-box), we will give you a warning. it if continues, you will be suspended for three days. ● you may welcome guests to the site, but don't scare the living day lights out of them. just give a kind greeting, if they reply go ahead and chat. if not, don't pester them. it'll turn them away from the site. ● guests, you are more than welcome to use our cbox, but please don’t spam it, advertise in it or bash the site/admins/members. we take pride in being part of this site and we hope you will too. ● any guests that we see bashing the site/admins/members will be banned. ● the ic box is to be used only by accepted members and should not take the place of threads.
roleplaying
● alright, so this one should be pretty obvious, but please post in third person. it’s a tense known to everybody, and just makes everything easier. ● absolutely no god modding. don't know what that is? look it up, because we won't tolerate it. if you feel a post you make might require some godmodding, pm that member before you post and ask if it's okay. if you feel that you've been the victim of godmodding, please send a pm to a staff member, so that we can deal with it. ● this site does have a word count. we know, the horrid word count. well we promise it's not that hard to follow. the minimum word limit is 250 words, though we'd love to see more! ● as stated before, if your thread has questionable content, please put a warning in the title. ● in order to be considered active you must post AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH if you have multiple characters, and AT LEAST ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS if you only have one character. this rule cancels out if you have an away message posted.
graphics
● first off, do not steal any graphics from any artist. if we happen to find a complaint somewhere that this has happened, we will confront you about it. if you simply forgot to credit them, that's okay, but if you're confronted about it, then please fix it. oh, an remember the word alohomora, it’s important. ● proboards has increased the size of the icons! Yay! You may use any size icon as long as the width does not exceed 160px. ● with signatures, all we ask is that you do not stretch the board. ● if you are not capable of making graphics, feel free to head over to CAUTION OF THE WIND and request some. they make amazing graphics over there. <3
thank you for reading,
