g e n e r a l rules
Respect all staff members. Their word is law. However, if you believe you have been unfairly punished or reprimanded by a staff member, please contact Toasteh.
Be courteous and considerate of other members. This means: no flamewars, no flaming, no bashing.
Only a limited amount of cursing is allowed. One or two curse words occasionally is fine. However, if you begin to use inappropriate language regularly, you will be warned.
No spamming. We don't need countless pointless threads clogging up the site. This rule does not apply for threads commemorating special events, such as staff-founded parties. We all like to have fun (:
Sorry folks, but keep advertising confined to the advertising board.
No double posting is allowed. If you have something to add, please edit your post.
You may have one account per person.
Keep your signatures under a manageable size. The width of your signature should not exceed the width of the forum - which is 600 pixels. This is to prevent unsightly forum stretching.
Please do not ask to become a staff member. Staff members are chosen based on their ability to lead and level of activity. Odds are, if you repeatedly ask to join the staff team, you won't be considered in the long run.
Plagiarism under any circumstance will not be tolerated. Any accusations of plagiarism will be looked into. If it has been found that you have plagiarized anothers work, you will be permanently banned.
r o l e p l a y rules
Use proper grammar and spelling when creating a thread or replying to an existing one. Your grammar and spelling don't have to be perfect, but please try to maintain a high standard of literacy.
No godmoding. Your character cannot be perfect or invincible - everyone should have flaws.
No powerplaying - this means you cannot take control of another person's character or kill them off without permission.
Try to adhere to your character's personality. Remember, it takes time for personalities to change - make changes gradual.
You can have a maximum of 5 characters. If you wish to have more, please contact Toasteh. Your character limit will be decided on your activity level and ability to roleplay each of your characters regularly.
If you intend to kill your character, contact a staff member beforehand.
Absolutely no graphic births, deaths, or matings.
You may not roleplay with your character until he/she has been accepted by an admin.
Keep an eye on current bans. If bans on certain ranks or Tribes are in place, you may not create a new character violating these bans. Wait until the ban is lifted.
No one line roleplays - we are a literate site. Each post needs to be at least a paragraph. (4+ sentences)
Rules are subject to change. If rules are modified, deleted, or added, you will be notified beforehand.
