Please follow these rules. It'll make the site run more smoothly and it'll make me and the other admins a lot happier. And happy admins are always a very good thing.
I also have the power to change these rules at any time. Without warning.
Joining and making your Charrie
1.) Please don't join unless you plan on staying active. I understand we all have lives and other things to do besides being on a RP site. But try to be active and if you know you can't be, don't join.
1a.) When you fill out the application please make it good. If you are asked to change something you will have five days to do so or your application will be rejected.
2.) You must pick a name off of the list. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it. We have plenty of charactes to choose from (thirty eight to be exact). Once the site grows bigger we will make needed changes and add more characters then and only then.
3.) You may have only three characters, one character per account. All must be active! If you're not I'll deleate the least active one.
4.) Your display name must be your charries First and Last name ONLY. I don't want to see anything but that.
5.) Once you figure out what charrie you want, go to the register area and wait to be accepted. Posting in any threads before you're accepted will result in those threads being deleted and you being warned.
6.) Also I know that some of the celebs that play the people in HP are hard to find pictures of. So... you may change some of them, but not all. Like Ron Weasley is Rupert Grint, you will not be allowed to change that. Also when picking a new person please keep to their general appearance (As they are in the books/movies) and make sure it isn't someone too old. (A thirty year old can't play a sixteen/fifteen/seventeen year old).
Posting
*New Rule! You CAN NOT RP with yourself. Like if you have two characters they can't RP with each other*
1.) Make sure to check your spelling and grammar before you post. It's really hard to RP with someone who misspells every other word and has horrible grammar. When you do this no one can understand what you're trying to say, so please check these before replying to a thread.
2.) Make sure you post in the correct thread. We've all accidentally posted in the wrong thread before, but double checking where you post can put this down to a minimum.
3.) Along with that don't join a thread that's two pages in that you weren't apart of to begin with. Unless the other people involved give you the OK.
4.) Any threads that aren't tagged (Have the other person's name in the title) are open to all. But if someone tags a thread for you that you didn't agree to and don't want to be apart of ask them to remove your name. If you're asked to remove the other person's name please do it, or I will.
5.) Try to not post one liners. Try to use detail. For example: Emily walked into the classroom, looking around at the vass amount of open spots to sit in. She walked down the small aisle between two rows and sat down at a desk near the front but not entirely in the front, she hated being in the first row so she would always sit a few rows back is correct. Emily walked into the classroom and sat down at at a desk is incorrect.
6.) Swearing will be allowed. No going overboard and if I feel you are, I'll warn you. Also some words I won't let you say and you'll figure those out soon enough.
OOC
1.) I will NOT tolerate racist, sexist, homophobic or in general rude comments. They are completely unnecessary and will result in your Immediate banning. I'm not joking about this either I don't tolerate that crap.
2.) Keep swearing to a minimum. I'll let it slide...just no going overboard.
3.) Only post advertisements in the advertising board. I get very annoyed if you do otherwise.
4.) I'm very easy going but certain things really annoy me. Like...chat speak on RP sites. We all can type out words and if you're too lazy to do that you shouldn't even be here. Period.
5.) Have fun ;D.
Siggies and Avatars
1.) No profanity or nudity in your Siggies and Avatars. They will be immediately removed.
2.) Make sure they aren't so big that they stretch the page. It's very annoying and unnecessary.
3.) No stealing someone's Avatars or Siggies. Ask for permission to use them, it simple.
4.) Please have only either words or pictures of actual people in your signatures. No anime or other things like that.
5.) Only one sig at a time please. Two pictures are fine but an actual sig (Like mine) Just do one at a time.
6.)All avatars must be 100x100. If you have a picture you want to use but it's a little too big PM it to me and I'll resize it for you. If you're picture is bigger than actual icon/avatar then you need to have it resized!
Chat box
1.) I only have one rule and that is... NO POSTING ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE CHAT BOX! It really annoys me and it's not necessary because there's a board for it.
I also have the power to change these rules at any time. Without warning.
