Here are the rules:
Updates are in black
1. Do not post anything that would insult others based on their race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, sexual preference, etc. No rape jokes. This will result in either a temporary banning of your account or a permanent banning, based on the severity of your comment(s).
2. Please try to refrain from using profanity- a little is fine, but don't be dropping f-bombs everywhere. If someone finds your language offensive and asks you to stop, then please stop.
3. Do not double post or have two word posts (such as "I agree" or "This is stupid"); if you do agree with someone please elaborate. Otherwise, please use the like/dislike buttons. All useless posts will be deleted and the user will be warned. For role-playing your post must be at least seven sentences long. Do NOT use the like/dislike buttons on role-playing posts! We want to build a friendly environment without competition. If you like/dislike someone's RP post let them know via PM.
4. Don't harass other members. Some constructive criticism is fine so long as it is constructive.
5. No plagiarism. If you want to copy someone please cite and/or source who/what you are copying. If you do not know or can't remember please say so.
6. NO spam. If you spam other users or advertise for things without my permission your post will be deleted and so will your account.
7. After you finish reading the rules, send me a message informing me that you have read them. You have a week after your account creation to send me a message, otherwise bad things will happen.
8. If you make a character, he/she/it is yours and yours ONLY. To make a character you MUST submit a character creation form. You cannot steal other people's characters. That means when role-playing you can only say what your character(s) does. Do not start trading characters without letting me know. You must also have it be okayed by all other users involved in the storyline.
9. You must make valid posts at least once a week. I know you all have very busy lives, as do I, but once a week isn't asking to much of your time. If you are involved in an active role-play story you must also contribute to that story (through posts) at least once a week.
10. All RP threads must be in a looping order. (If you are confused read the How to RP thread.)
11. There is a minimum of two members per RP thread. (Threads in the Log board are exempt.)
12. If you are temporarily banned, I will let you know why you are being banned and for how long. You will have one day from the time I send the message to comply. Within that one day any and all posts you make will be deleted. When your ban time is up you can log back in.
13. If any boards have different and/or specific rules please read the rules thread in that board before posting anything there.
14. If you notice anyone breaking any of the rules please let me know.
15. If someone has offended you please let them and me know.
16. Rules change and things get updated. When I make a change to the rules I will announce it in the Updates section. Please read all the rules again once I update the thread.
