THE RULES
You will find that these are most likely the same rules on almost every Role Playing site but I am going to put them anyways so bare with me.
Main Rules
The rules that you will be reading are the rules that goes for the whole site so please be sure to follow them because if I see any of them being broken I will send out a warning PM to that person.[/center]
001. CHANGING YOUR NAME. After you're done applying for your character please don't change your characters name it gets really confusing if you can't make up your mind on what his, or her name is.[/center]
002. CANONS. This is a canon site so not all characters are originally created by the person who is role playing them. Also the canons don't rule this site so it's easily for an original to get involved with a canon either it's just friends or something more. If you make your own character you can choose how much you want him, or her, to be involved in the site.
003. MUST HAVE FIRST AND LAST NAME. Once you have been approved please put the first and last name of your character ALL UPPER CASE letters. If you're a Professor please put PROF. the the first letter of your first name and you last name. It should look like PROF. H GRANGER. If you want to add your middle name please just put the initial.
004. PLAY BYS. Please choose someone who looks the age of your character. No pictures of yourself, friends, myspace or internet people and no drawing, cartoon characters. You must use a celebrity. If you're playing a 15 year old characters please choose a celeb of that age or very close to it. If a admin see that you're using a 20-something celeb to be your 15 year old character you will be asked to find someone else.
005. CUSSING. Please keep in mind this is a PG-13 rating site so please no F bombs or anything close to that word. Minor words are ok just don't make it your second language.
006. BE RESPECTFUL. Treat everyone on here the way you want to be treated. If you treat someone like crap don't be surprised you get treated the exact same way.
007. NO SEXUAL CONTENT. This is a PG-13 site and will remain that way. Making out is ok but please no more then that. If I find that there is some hanky panky going on you will be warned. Three strikes and you're out.
008. SPELL CHECK. I know that no one is a perfect speller but on this site there is a spell check that you can do before posting a Role Play please use it no one really likes a Role Play that has misspelled words all over.
009. NUMBER OF CHARACTERS. I really don't care how many characters you have as long as you keep them active please don't take more then you can handle. But if you make two girls and you want another one the third one MUST be a boy there are never enough guys on rping sites so please help out with that.
010. REJECTION FROM THE ADMIN. The admin has the right to reject any application but that most likely wont happen unless you're applying for a canon and they think you wont do that canon justice. So if you're going to apply for any of the major canons like Harry, Ron, Draco please be sure to act a lot like them in IC. If you need help just ask.Posting Rules
The rules that you will be reading are the rules that goes for the posting so please be sure to follow them because if I see any of them being broken I will send out a warning PM to that person.
001. ALL ROLE PLAYING MUST BE 200 WORDS OR MORE. No One really likes short post. There isn't really much you can reply to if someone makes a thread only a few words. The UBBC Codes do not count in word count. I do check if I think a post is under the required amount. If you fail to meet the 200 word you will lose your house 5 points so be sure to fix it. You might get a warning before hand so you can go and fix it.
002. BE CREATIVE. No One really likes short and boring posts so please try to be creative and descriptive. I can understand that anyone can lose their muse it happens to the best of them but once you get it back come back and post your heart out.
003. POST IN THIRD PERSON. All posts must be in third person I know that it can be a lot easier if it was in first person but it could get really annoying. So no I's, We's, unless your character is talking but if you're just describing their emotion or where they are you need to stick with he, she, was, etc....
003. FIVE POSTS A WEEK. I don't think that's really a lot to ask for but then again I'm not you so maybe it is. If you don't think you can manage that for and you're a Canon please think about giving you character up.
Character Rules
The rules that you will be reading are the rules that goes for the Canon Characters so please be sure to follow them because if I see any of them being broken I will send out a warning PM to that person.[/center]
001. BE ACTIVE. Just because you're not Canon doesn't mean that I don't want you to be as much a part of this site. So please try to make it on as much as you can or try to have your character involved in some of the important plots. If you think you're going to be gone for 7 days or more please post Here.
002. ACT LIKE YOU CHARACTER. Usually this isn't a problem but if your character is a rich, snobby person then play her, or him, just like that. I can understand that people change but make it a progress and not just having them change over night.
003. CERTAIN SITUATIONS. If you plan on having your character killed, pregnant, or anything else among those lines then you will need to PM the admin with a reason why this should be allowed. Only adult characters can have kids no students. Sorry.
004. PREFECTS & PROFESSORS. Prefects and Professors are allowed to enter any thread they wish as long as it's within reason. Not every student can get away with breaking school rules and Prefects and Professors needs to keep it to a limit some student will indeed get away with breaking rules. If I see any Prefect or Professor taking advantage that person will no longer be allowed that privilege.
005. HOUSE POINTS. Same as about Prefects and Professors are allowed to give and take away House Points. This is not to be use Freely just because you don't like the person (In Character of course). If I see this rule being taken advantage of that person will no longer be allowed to Give or Take away point.
