``THE RULES!!!

[MARIA]

RULES,
"They're pretty simple so please follow them"

ONE::
First things first, be respectful to everyone. This includes the staff, other members, and guests. If you feel like someone is being disrespectful towards you then don't hesitate to contact an admin, I promise we don't bite :3

TWO::
This is a Proboards site and therefore, to avoid being shutdown, all material on this site needs to be kept PG-13. If you're not entirely sure what PG-13 entails then keep in mind the following; mild drinking, cussing, and violence may occur. However! Full blown sex scenes, cursing every other word, etc. are not allowed. If I see a thread containing anything above the rating then I will delete said thread and PM all members involved.

THREE::
I do consider this site an intermediate role play site and therefore you must have a decent grasp on the English language and grammar/spelling. The word count minimum is 250 words. Everyone has bad days so I'm not going to jump down your throat if you post something a little under the 250 word mark unless you make it a habit.

FOUR::
Activity is the key to keeping any site on its feet! Please don't join this site and then never come back. If you know in advance that you're going to be absent then please post in the absent board and let us know, especially if you're in a thread.

FIVE::
You can sign up with whatever name you please, but after registering please change your display name to your first middle last in all capitals. Please do not add any symbols to your character names either.

SIX::
As of right now there isn't a limit to how many characters you can have, but keep in mind a few things. Don't take on more than you can handle. If a staff member notices that you're making another character and your others have fallen inactive then your new character account will be frozen until your previous characters are either active or deleted. Keep in mind the ratios when creating a new character also please.

SEVEN::
Graphics! We all love them! All face claims must be real people; I don't care if they're singers, actors, or scene kids etc, just no cartoon/anime characters. No Myspace or internet models though. If you'd like an explanation then please PM me and I'll explain. Also, icons are a must and need to be between 100x100 and 150x200. Signatures are optional and can be no wider than 500 pixels.

EIGHT::
Have fun! Yes, this is seriously a rule that you need to follow. Role play boards are meant for your enjoyment and I don't want to see any fighting amongst people in OOC areas. Just because your characters hate each other doesn't mean you should hate each other too.
