The name of this thread pretty much explains it all so without any further ado... The rules.
General rules
- Any type of insults as far as a person's race/sexual preference/Anything else that kind of hurtful OOC: Will not be tolerated. Being a werewolf and hating wererats is one thing being white and hating black or anything along those lines will get you kicked off and probably a good verbal lashing from me... ^^
- Swearing is fine as long as it's not overly much like posting the word fuck in a thread three hundred times... Sex also is alright but make sure to put up a warning in the beginning of the thread so no one randomly stumbles upon your thread and freaks out because they can't handle it.
- Spamming or anything along those lines won't be accepted. If you want to advertise your site or anything else there is a place directly for such things -a board and your signature are possible places- I will not advertise for you.
- I know I mentioned all the racial and sexual insults and such already and that can be considered harassment but just for good measure... HARASSMENT will not be tolerated either. If you want to follow someone around and be a totally brainless fuck bag DON'T DO IT HERE.
- If you find anything insulting or whatnot... let me know. Give me a link where I can find it and me or another staff member will check it out. If it's something like "Oh... so and so has a picture of two guys kissing!" I don't want to hear it. This site is open to that sort of thing if it's your thing as long as it's not major porn. Like I said, let me know. If you really really think it's too much tell me and I will go check it out.
Posting rules
- These boards are NOT random chat boards. They are for role playing (and not the full out fuck-me-online kind either unless it just happens to fall into your plot.) If you want to randomly chat there is a General Board for such things.
- OOC and IC means Out Of Character and In Character. You may have to move your plot to a different place or whatever then you type OOC then say what you need to say out of character. In Character is what your character is doing. You don't need to type the letters IC unless you already said something OOC.
- Grammar and spelling are very important. Next to the Post button there are other options such as Spell Check. Grammar however, you need to know on your own. If you have a grammar problem then get someone you know to read your post and tell you what's wrong with it. I'm not expecting perfection but I am expecting effort.
- When posting IC you need to be in third character. None of the "I" stuff or the present "She is" either. Here are some examples....
Past Vs. Present Tenses
BAD:: Rahil's eyes flash towards the human in question. "What the hell do you mean?" she asks. She dares them to lie.
GOOD:: Rahil's eyes flashed to the human in question. "What the hell do you mean?" She asked, the tone of her voice daring them to lie to her.
First Vs. Third Character
BAD:: I walked down the lonely street, allowing the thoughts to race through my mind faster than I could understand.
Good:: Rahil walked down the lonely street, allowing the thoughts to race through her mind faster than she could understand.
Be descriptive!!!
- Controlling another character isn't allowed either. You cannot make them say anything unless it's a random non-existent character you randomly brought into your plot. If you find someone has done so to your character, let me know and I shall fix it.
