Rules![/u][/b]
----So brah! These are the rules! Follow them and we won't have a problem!
----respect the admins! We do our best to make things easy for you but we can't do it when we have people disrespecting and giving us attitude that we don't need.
----Do not harass the members. This can be anything from bugging them to post to insulting them. sure a little 'hey can you post' now and then is fine but don't constantly nag them. If we find out about harassment you will be banned.
----If you have any questions at all don't be afraid to pm a staff member. We won't harm you if you have a question. And I promise we don't bite.
----Please please please keep your accounts active. If you fall inactive for more than two weeks without telling us otherwise, your account(s) will be deleted.
----When you register please register with the name of your character, whether it's first and last or just first use the name of your character.
----Also! Please make sure the first letter of your first and last name are capitalized. That way everything looks nice and even on the site.
----Please bare with me here I'm learning how to use this new version of proboards so if something ends up looking weird I apologize.
----Lastly just have fun! This is a site where you have so many possibilities and we'd love for everyone to enjoy it as much as they can.
Characters:
----Characters! Alright so you can have all your characters on one account, but I am going to highly recommend using multiple accounts. With the way the new Proboards is set up its rather easy to switch between accounts and stuff. But we will not be forcing you to make different accounts.
----The species are broken into different groups such as vampires and lycans. Each group is then broken down into different species. For example within the group Vampires there are Purebloods, Turned, Letum, and Creatura. These are different kinds of vampires but they are all still vampires.
----This is an anime/manga/video game/original art face claim only site. Meaning no real people at all. If you need help finding a face claim just ask one of the staff and we can help you or you can go here and find a person.
----Obviously no godmoding. The only reason you should be controlling another person's character is if you have the other person's permission. If not then don't do it. If a staff member finds out you are godmoding you will be banned.
----The staff has created a basic list of creatures that are seen in this universe. They have been broken down into different classes based on their power. It's a fairly large list and if you don't like whats on the list you are welcome to use a different species but we highly suggest you use what we have given you.
----Make sure your characters are original! We don't need any recreations of movie or manga characters. If we find any that are created like another person's character or a character from a movie or etc, we will ask you kindly to make changes to your existing character or create a new one entirely. Don't steal characters from other sites either, unless you have permission from the creator and will give them credit.
Rolelaying:
----First off this is an intermediate to advanced rp. Meaning we want two paragraphs from you or five hundred words. It really isn't that difficult to squeeze out two paragraphs or five hundred words. We just don't want people to only have one liner posts.
----Make sure you are using proper grammar when posting. I'll admit my spelling isn't the greatest in the world but at least I can write decent sentences. So please make sure you don't use text speak in your post. Such as 'julie went 2 da store fo sum milk.' Just don't do that.
----When it comes to making threads you can make as many as you want to have, but make sure you can keep up with all of them. We don't need six dead threads floating around though.
----You are allowed to use templates and things for posting but please make sure the font is readable and it's not blinding. We don't need people going blind from reading a post.
-----Unless your character can read minds, they will not know everything about the person they are in a thread with. Even if you look over their bio the character doesn't know. The rp'er can know as much as they want but don't go talking about a person's past unless you have met them before and discussed it.
Graphics:
----Icons can be bigger than 200 x 200 but I will warn you that it might get re-sized and squished so I recommend keeping it rather small when making it.
----Signatures can be any size as long as they don't stretch the page. If your signature stretches the page we will ask you to re-size it or we will resize it for you.
----When making a Signature please keep in mind Proboards ToS. Don't be posting up a signature with naked people in it. If the staff sees anything like this then we will ask you to take it down and you might even receive a warning or possibly a ban.
----Please also keep in mind when Sig making, not to make anything ridiculously bright in color. Just like with posting we don't want to blind people with colors.
----Also keep in mind this is an anime/manga/video game/original art so there should not be any real people in your Signature.
Cbox:
----Please keep all conversation in the Cbox PG-13. You can swear but keep it to a minimum. While it may be the Cbox, we still need to follow proboards terms of service.
----Play nice in the Cbox. No hating on other members and no spamming. If you can't play nice, you will be placed in timeout.
----All icons need to site appropriate as well. No nudity or excessive gore. The icons need to follow our graphics rules as well.
----Definitely no spamming in the Cbox. It is an OOC cbox and if you wish to chat with someone about their character perhaps you can send them a PM instead. Also keep posting links in the cbox to a minimum as well. It's meant for chat. It you have a funny video you would like to share go ahead and post it up in The Lounge.
If you have any questions or are uncertain of anything feel free to contact Vivianne. And remember just have fun!
