Role Playing Rules
1) NO POWER PLAYING! No matter how many times people say this, DONT POWER PLAY! ITS BAD! BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD! Okay. Just for those of you who don't know, this is an example of powerplaying.
Jenny: *throws dagger in Bob's direction*
Bob: *catches Jenny's dagger and throws it back, hitting her in the face.*
Bob = BAD! You cannot act for someone else's character. What Jenny did was correct, as she waited to see Bob's reaction.
2) NO RACISM! It's really bad. So please don't
3) Don't make fun of people. It's cruel. If you and someone else's characters are arguing, don't drag it out of character! Your character and you, your real self, are different people so don't take things so personally dude!
4) Avoid one lining! It's really not cool and it's hard to make a decent sized post out of a one or two-liner!
5) When talking out of character... please use [ ] or (( )) or (OOC so that people know its not your character talking! Please don't use stars.. as there as some people that use actions as stars.. so it will be confusing!
6) Right now I'll say this, There is a 3 line minimum in a post. One-liners are so incredibly annoying. If you fail to do so, your post shall be deleted or you will be warned.
7) No double posting! If I catch you double posting I will delete BOTH posts and you will recieve a warning. There may be *some* exceptions, but very few. Please refrain, this is why we have a modify button.
Extra School Rules
1) Please, every character can only have one pet. We don't want the school flooded with animals for buddah's sake! BUT! The catch is, no animals that aren't suitable for the school. FOR EXAMPLE; do your eally think a Dragon or Hippogriff will fit into your dorm? Enough said.
2) Smoking and Drinking (getting drunk) are allowed. But this is only if you are OFF GROUNDS
3) You can carry a maximum of two weapons on you. . Please, no guns! However, daggers, swords, archery bows, and whatever else are allowed!
4) Killing IS allowed! But the catch to this is, the person you plan to kill must agree to it and you must pm one of the Founders before hand to let us know! We don't want people dropping dead all over the bloody place without our knowledge.
5) The shame I have speaking about this openly... Sex IS ALLOWED! But please, keep it tasteful and do not go into graphics. No one wants to read that, but if you absolutely MUST, please put a warning on the thread title.
6) In order to advance a year, you must take atleast two classes. If you plan to play on a quidditch team, we ask you are signed up for three classes, and to be Prefect of Headboy/girl, we would like it if you take four or more classes! We only ask this because we want to kow how dedicated and willing you are to keep your position.
7) Veelas, Werewolves, Elves, and Animagi's ARE allowed. But, we ask if you do plan to be an Animagus, we would like you to pm us so we can keep track so our site doesn't become a zoo.
But, we ask for the Elves, please, keep your powers to a minimum. No, you CAN'T fly, and yes you can heal yourself, but not in like a split second! Keep it realistic.. or slightly!
And, if you do want to be a vampire, demon, or werewolf then you have to be a half-blooded wizard or muggle. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to learn magic or you'd be too powerful.
8) You cannot change your name every couple of days. This confuses everyone, so please try to refrain from changing your name.
9) No pregnancies! Unless you are a 7th year or a teacher. We don't want the site flooded with babysitters and screaming infants that you don't properly care for. ((There are FEW exceptions that are based on reasoning and plot points))
10) You may have as many characters as your heart desires, BUT you MUST keep ALL of them ACTIVE. If you don't, they will be deleted.
That's all for now. Heh, talk about a lot. But please abide or you will get an owl.. and I assure you.. it won't be lovely!
***There will be more added as time goes along, so please check back***
NOTE:::This is just a general rule, but seriously people, when you are a new member, you may post your application and sig claim ONLY! You may not post anywhere else, and that includes Out of Character boards. If you do, it will be deleted. The exception is if you are advertising your site in our advertise board, other than that, NO!
