THE SITE RULES
General Board Rules
Discrimination/Prejudice of any kind will not be tolerated in OOC.
Do not post anywhere IC until application has been accepted. You may post in the OOC boards.
No OOC fights, if there is a problem PM an administrator and we will help you sort it out.
Be respectful to admins and other members.
No advertising in the chat boxes. We have a board for that.
REGISTRATION.
You should also know that the admins sometimes aren't online at the same time, so we can't accept you right away. If you ARE approved in application, you can move onto your claims and start roleplaying. I would like to point out that you shouldn't have more characters than you can handle. Please, we ask for every two females, make a male. We would like an even ratio. All vampires must be turned at age fifteen or above and the shifters must be a decent age as well.
ROLE PLAY.
When you're role playing, it will be in third person. Word count is 200+. All canons must be able to post 300+ words. Grammar is important in role playing. Swearing is permitted to an extent. Please don't go overboard, it's not nice. If you are waiting for a post to be done, don't keep pestering the other person to post. They will post. But don't hold off for too long, otherwise we'll move it to the archives.
Applications should be finished within a three day time period, unless you have a good excuse that you cannot finish it then. Please let us know if you cannot. There are also reservations.
If you cannot be here, just post a thread in the going away board. Or you can PM an admin.
Every two weeks in real life will be equal to one month RP time. We request that when you start a thread you add the RP month to the thread title as you would a tag. We know that some titles may be longer and not hold this or you may not wish to put it there. In this case we ask you to look here and place the month in the FIRST post of the thread.
CANONS.
No one person may hold more than two canon characters in the same family at a time. This is so that we can make it fair for everyone. Gives others a chance to have one. To play a canon you have to be able to post 300 words or an advanced role player. FS is between intermediate and advanced, so we like are canons to post good length posts.
ACTIVITY CHECKS.
We will be checking if your on your accounts every two weeks. Sign into your account at least once every few days.. please try to keep up your activity, we want this site to grow.
GOD-MODDING.
If you are new to roleplaying, god-modding is controlling a character that is not yours. Please do not do this. You cannot control any other character's besides your own in posts - or anywhere. also, your characters are not perfect. They have peeves, likes and dislikes. make sure to tell us that. (the password/phrase is your favorite soda.) Killing another character is not allowed without their permission, and you must ask the admins first.
GRAPHICS.
Do not make anything too big. It stretches the page. Banners in the signature. 500x250...
We would like you to have an avatar or signature of your character in your profile. It helps give visuals to the other rpers and makes the site look neat.
The Golden Rule
All pregnancies and marriages along with deaths must be run past an admin. Posts regarding violence are permitted within reason.
Rules will be added as needed.
