Rules [1/19/13]

General Rules:[/u][/size]

• Respect:

[/u]

Respect the chain of command and other members. Remember if you are disciplined by staff and you find it unfair message their supervisor - a head of that branch of staff or message the Head Admin. However, this still does not mean you disrespect the staff member you are reporting. Also, it will not be tolerated member to member; Respect is respect. Report them to staff if they are harassing you. Golden rule, treat other how you want to be treated or else staff will take care of it.

[/li][li]OOC:[/u]

OOC boards are the only place for spam and chat speak. They are also the only place for posted ads in the advertisement boards.

[/li][li]TOS:[/u]

TOS says no ratings over PG-13 and it will be followed as such. No, it is not allowed in PMs either as said in the TOS, so if you find it necessary to do a detailed sex scene, or gore scene, take it else where. Don't put the Forum at risk. Cursing and kissing is ok, but as said before PG-13.

[/li][li]Double Posting:[/u]

No double posting in any forum board. There is a modify post button for that reason.

[/li][li]Chat Box:[/u]

The Chat Box is a privilege and it is not mandatory. If any above rules are broken or common decency is not followed you will be banned from the Chat with no expections.

[/li][li]Rules Are Subject to Change:[/u]

These rules will lengthen if need be, but assuming we've all been taught common decency and manners there is currently no reason for lengthy rule systems on these general subjects.

Role Play Rules:[/u][/size]

• One Character Per Account:

[/u]

Only one character per account to keep an accurate count in the Wards. This will also be labeled in the certain colors for each Ward. It will also keep Moderators jobs for your Role Playing pleasure more accurate, faster, and smooth.

[/li][li]Biography Grade:[/u]

All characters will be accepted if they receive 3 out of 5 on their "grade". The grade is simply if you've followed the biography template and grammar/spelling. Nothing out of the ordinary or complicated. No characters that have not been accepted are allowed to be Role Played.

[/li][li]Post Length:[/u]

All in character posts should be one good paragraphs or an equivalent of four to ten sentences, not including dialog. This is sometimes hard to achieve and you will succeed here if you continue to show high quality writing - even if your posts are a little shorter than the limit.

[/li][li]Role Play Help:[/u]

There will be Role Playing help offered in the OCC area, or you may PM a staff member, or another experienced member, to help you in private.

[/li][li]TOS:

As previously stated, all Role Playing is to abide by the TOS. Cursing to a minimum and sex scenes, or overly gory details, are to be "faded black".
