•• R U L E S
I know people don’t like rules but everything has to have rules or it would just be crazy anarchy and not the fun kind either. So I’m gonna try to keep it short, but I promise I will fail (i ramble… a lot) and so I’m gonan try to make it simple at least.
•• G E N E R A L**first and foremost RESPECT! HAVE IT! Have it for yourself, you characters, each other, each other's characters and the admins too. Just have it.
** on the subject of admins… please listen to us. sometimes we won’t know what we’re doing (but we’ll admit to it) but for the most part we kinda get it… and we’re kinda in charge… please don’t pressure us, harass us, whatever. We’re here to help you and we’re here for fun, k. If we ask you to do something/change something/respect someone else, please, we’ve got the interest of the site and everyone else (including you) at heart. k thanks.
** remember to read the plot… no seriously… do it… really
** no fighting with other members out of character. not on the site. take it outside.
** you can register with any name you chose… is fine, but make sure your display name is you character’s FIRST and MIDDLE and LAST name, all in caps… just like that. (JOHN SILLY DOE… not…john silly doe or John Silly Doe or fhghfjfhshdjondoe… mkay)
** you can have as many characters as you wish… just STAY ACTIVE! please and thank you. if you stay active with all your characters then it’s fine. and if you create three characters of any one gender, make a character of the other gender. thanks.
** NO STEALING! no stealing writing, characters, graphics, anything without permission of the original creator okay. just don’t do it. it’s so not right!
•• C – B O X** c-box is here for FUN! okay. so no fighting!
** no spamming either, or advertising.
** no disrespectful-ness either please
** and be nice to the guests
•• A P P L I C A T I O N S** when you post you application make sure the title follows this format: LAST, first middle
** please, please, PLEASE reserve your canon BEFORE! starting your application to insure that the canon is there when you finish your application… thank you muchly!
** DON’T POST UNFINISHED APPLICATIONS! it makes everything nice and neat and simple for the admins… save it to a word document or e-mail or something, please and thank you.
** spell check!... nuff said.. and yes… i mess up too… i know
** oh by the way, use the correct application please… lyricist have a special app
** make sure your character fits with you band, you know. and check out the band synopsis for ideas and little plot points for your character and stuff.
** pbs need to be REAL PEOPLE… no anime or anything like that. myspace/deviant art kids are okay though… make sure they are age appropriate (no zac effron playing a 40 year old…) and band appropriate (zac efforn should also not be in the metalcore band…). this shouldn’t be that big of an issue, but the admins to reserve the right to reject a pb for whatever reason.
** ps… reserve your pbs too… that’s a good idea… and check which pbs are used and stuff…
** oh and because of the format… it should be in first person…
•• R O L E P L A Y I N G** this is an R rated rpg so sex drugs and rock and roll are okay withen reason. any time anything explicit is going on (be it in speech or actions) please place a [M] in the title or something like that, to warn people…
** if anything extreme is going down in plottage (for example, pregnancy, leaving a band, death, extended hospital stay, getting arrested… use your judgment) please contact the admins to check to make sure it’s okay… we just want to have a control of that kind of extreme-ness so things don’t get out of hand.
** however…. almost versions of those extremes are okay (threatening to quite a band, a pregnancy scare but no pregnancy, etc…)
** so there are some young characters on this site (young as 16) and as you know, kids that young are jailbait… so keep it in your pants… if you absolutely can not keep it in your pants… well roleplay it out appropriately and if someone gets arrested… that would be something to have a chat with the admins about
** ps… this is a realistic rpg… so no super powers, sparkly vampires, magic or other such bullshit…
** and everything should be posted in 3rd person
** and the word count minimum is 500 words. i understand people have off days but if it happens consistently words will be had (and the exception to this is obviously the IM threads, ooc stuff and that sort of thing)
•• G R A P H I C S** the max size for signatures is 500x400 that counts EVERYTHING…
**the avatar size limit is 100x200
** everyone needs a signature and an avatar of some kind
** if you need graphic help, go post in ths graphics boards… that’s why it’s there
** nothing inappropriate (no nudity, that sort of thing)… the admins have a right to gank your graphics should they feel it’s inappropriate…
•• O T H E R** HAVE FUN!! no seriously… people tend to forget this so now it’s a rule… have fun
** and if you haven’t already… read the plot…
the pass code is… ‘gods of death love apples’
