If you have ANY questions about the rules or a suggestion for a rule, please feel free to post here!
You have but two.
[li]When moving threads, chose NO to leave a message behind (that says Moved: ). It takes up space and I think they look ugly, lol. So please select no.
[/li][li]Don't abuse your power. You're human just like everyone else, no?[/li][/ul]You have but two.

[li]You're encouraged to use the karma system. If someone does something worthy of praise, such as make an epic post or a wonderful character, exhault them. If you think someone is being a jerk, smite them. Don't smite someone if they are stating their opinions in a fair, un-assholish way, though.
[/li][li]Character limit is seven, don't wanna overwork them now.
[/li][li]Sexual harassment is a no-no.
[/li][li]Most of us are adults, college kids, or mature writers. You can have a 'bad-ass' character that curses. If this bothers you, then tell us during the roleplay. Then, the roleplayer has the option of highlighting the bad words or language with black, and the other roleplayers that do not mind will simply highlight it with our mouse and read what is covered.
[/li][li]Typos and mistakes. We all make them. Don't be anal about them. Some people on this site's main language isn't even English.
[/li][li]Be nice to each other and get along, okays? I'm usually a nice person but I don't want this pretty new site I worked hard on to end up a drama-fest. I'm not afraid to ban members.
[/li][li]Proboard rules that you must be 13 to join this site.
[/li][li]Try to avoid too much out of character conversation in your roleplays. That's what the chatango box is for.
[/li][li]Preferred icon size is 100 x 100. Your sig needs to be a reasonable size, and not cause the board to stretch.
In Character
[/li][li]No godmodding or powerplay without permission. This means that you cannot take control of someone else's character (powerplay), you must ATTEMPT all attacks unless your opponent is prevented from moving in some way. This also means that your character cannot be immune to/or dodge every attack someone else throws at them. Not to say you can't avoid; just be reasonable and fair.
[/li][li]NO killing a character without asking the owner of said character first. In the event that you try to kill a person's character without permission, they have the right to temporarily godmod/powerplay in order to make their character survive.
[/li][li]No unfair powers. You are not allowed to create a character who shoots fireballs or kills things with his queue.
[/li][li]Keep it in third person, preferably past tense; (he looked instead of he looks/I look/I looked.) Since none of our characters can magically clone themselves, your character can only be in one place at one time.
[/li][li]Everyone roleplays together. You don't need to make a new board to have characters talking in this thread. You can have more than one scene going on, for example:
Character 1 and 2 are talking to 3 and 4. Then, 3 and 4 want to leave. Rp them leaving, but stay in the thread/board. Just ignore characters 1 and 2 and write about the scene they are entering. This keeps everything together and the roleplayers updated on the story. As more people and characters join, then we can start making more boards/threads. When you leave a thread, post where you are going and if you are starting that thread/board, or if it's already made, then post the page number. This keeps the story in order.
[/li][li]For private threads, please label it as 'mature' somewhere in the thread title if there's gonna be some bow chicka bow bow. DO NOT post in a private thread without permission of the people in it, okay?[/center][/li][/ul]
