FORUM RULES
By joining the site you agree to
the following rules.  

ONE. The site is rated PG-13, and all content needs to be kept at that rating.  Mild romance, violence, and language is permitted.  Topics about suicide, drug and/or alcohol use, abuse, etc. should be kept off the site.

TWO.  Respect staff and each other at all times.  Bullying, fighting, and related drama will not be tolerated.  Conflict should be handled through PM.  If the situation isn't resolved please contact staff.   Additionally, staff word is final and should be followed without complaint.  If you feel you are being treated unfairly please discuss it with that staff member maturely, and keep any arguments off the main site.

THREE.  After joining make sure to change your display name to your character's first and last name using proper capitalization.  Staff names may appear in uppercase letters.

FOUR.  At this time, no member is allowed to have more than five accounts.  Each character must be on a separate account.  There isn't a limit on canons, however we do want to encourage you to make canons that do not interact with each other frequently.

FIVE.  Failure to post in all proper claims such as celebrity faces, who's who, abilities, etc. will result in problems.  To avoid any issues that might occur please make sure to post in the claims that are necessary for your character.

SIX.  Avatars must be no bigger than 150 x 150 pixels, signatures no bigger than 500 x 200 pixels.  Pornography and/or nudity isn't allowed in images.  Any image breaking this rule will be immediately removed from your profile and you will be warned by staff.  Always credit the person who made the graphics for you.  

SEVEN.  We have a zero tolerance policy on theft of any kind, and we will react appropriately should we discover something has been used without permission.  This includes using images, applications, posts, etc. off other sites that haven't been properly credited for use.  

EIGHT.  All forum rules apply to the chat box.  The chat box on the side of the forum is for out of character chatter.  The shout box at the bottom of the site is for in character chat, and only members of the forum can use it.  

NINE.  Posts need to be in third person, past tense.  

Example:  "Samantha walked down the hallway towards class."  Or "She walked down the hallway towards class."  Use proper spelling and grammar.  God modding or power playing is forbidden unless you have permission to do so.

TEN.  Advertisements are only allowed in the appropriate places (user profile, specific advertisement boards, signature area).  Any posts in other areas of the forum including the chat box AND PM aren't allowed.  If you receive a PM that includes an advertisement for another site, please contact staff immediately.
