RPG Basic Rules

1.
No one is perfect.

Though we all wish we were something we aren't no one can be perfect. So lets not have any Mary Sues please. Your character has flaws, that's what keeps everyone from being the same colorless perfect blob. So lets deal and give your character a flaw or two (i.e. a bad temper, doesn't like part of the body, etc). Also, not everybody in the world is emo or goth or have tragic pasts. Please, let's not all be the same.
2.
No power playing or god modding.

Really no one likes it, and it goes hand in hand with the Mary Sue thing. God modding is making your character out to be inhuman in some way. Lets stay away from that.
3.
Racism in any way is forbidden.

In a special circumstance it may be accepted when IN character but other then that we will not accept anything racist OUT of character.
4.
Do not make fun OOC.

Teenage drama does in fact every once in a while call for some dirty shots but never does that need to be brought up or used in OOC. The character someone plays is not that person so please don't take anything offensively. If it becomes a problem contact an admin and we will handle it personally. We don't take kindly to Internet bullying.
5.
No one liners.

We hate, just about as much as anyone else, writing a nice long piece and having someone reply to it in one line. That's all our work thrown down the drain. So please, all posts, except for OOC, must be kept in at least 1 paragraph as a minimum!
6.
Babble Babble Babble IC

We would prefer if you not chat constantly while not out of character. An occasional apology for a short post is fine but please do not carry on long out of character conversations when in character. It makes things very hard to follow and just takes up space. When talking OOC when IC please use [], (), {}, or anything else to show that whatever you are saying your character is not.
7.
Ads go where?

Keep ads off of the c-box. They clutter and just create a problem. If you have a site you'd like to share with us then please post it in the correct board in the advertising board.
8.
Signatures

Members are not allowed to modify their own signatures. If you would like an image of your character in your signature you must reply to the appropriate thread. Your character's name, bio, classes, etc. will also be included automatically once your character is accepted.

The maximum signature size is 450px (width) by 150px (height) anything larger than this will not be placed into your signature.

School Rules

1.
Please refrain from double posting.
2.
Pets are allowed.

Please have regular animals. Ferrets, rats, etc. are acceptable but please have nothing that borders the illegal like say bears, lions, etc. We like making things as realistic as possible and no matter how much you want them you can't have a pet tiger.
3.
Please do not get offended by what is allowed.

Your character is allowed to smoke, drink, and do drugs just like any rebellious teenager wants. To not allow those sort of things would leave this site dry with no source of a plot line.
4.
Sex is allowed.

But only on certain conditions. Characters must put a warning on their thread when graphic moment arrive. Try not to give full descriptions here. It's not necessary. If you have a problem with these sort of things then please stay away from the threads with a warning. If I find any threads that are graphic without a warning then people involved will be banned. If sex will create a problem for you on this site then you should find another.

Also...prgnancies are allowed. It walks hand in hand with sex and helps to create drama. Not everyone can have a child though and you must ask an admin for permission first. If too many people start running around with babies then I'll have to put a stop to all baby scares. If your character is having a child she must be pregnant for at least a month before giving birth.
5.
Your name was ___ last week.

Please keep from changing your name every so often. Your profile name should be your character's first and last name and nothing more. If the name keeps changing you will be warned.
6.
Who else do you play?

You may only have one character on an account at a time. Having more then one on an account makes things cluttered and confusing. You may only have two characters if you have twins and you must ask and admin first for permission to do so.

You may have more then one account. If you don't keep the account active then i will ask you to use only one account for one character. If activity becomes a problem because of too many characters then we will ask you to get rid of a few.
