THE RULES

Obey zem. Or face the terrible consequences. Somewhere in the rules a secret word is hidden that you MUST put in your profile in order to get accepted. Don't think you can copy it from someone, because the word changes often.

ooc - rules

-1- The staff aren't your little pallies. We're here to do our jobs and we are to be respected. We won't be total asses, but we expect you to be nice. And don't pester us. We have lives and we don't always have time to get to your profile right away.

-2- Fighting with other members is prohibited. We expect no fighting on the OOC forums or on the Cbox. Fighting is an offense and you will be in deep doo doo if you fight.

-3- Spam is mean and evil and rude. Don't spam it just makes more work for us and if you keep spamming you will get in major trouble from some mods.

-4- We allow swearing here, but keep it to a minimum. Don't swear every other sentence or something. Most swearing should be kept at a low level, and mostly should only be done in RP.

-5- Thievery is bad. Please don't take anything from us or other members. This includes the skin, sidebar images, colors, banners and other stuff. This also includes post material.

-6- Signatures can be whatever size, but if they stretch the forum, they are prohibited. And if your images are huge on any posts, please just make a link. Avatars should be 100x100. No larger, and if it is smaller it is acceptable, but doesn't look as nice.

-7- Most importantly, respect every member. Treat them as you would want to be treated. Being an ass won't be tolerated here.

roleplay rules & characters

-8- Remember to create your character in moderation. Don't make them super weak, but you can if you want. But making Mary Sue's and Gary Stu's is bad. BAD SHEEP. D<

-9- Powerplays, godmodding and any of that crap isn't allowed. The word is bubblegum. We just don't like it. It's bad and really rude. Controlling other players is against the rules as well.

-10- Your profile must use our exact template or it won't be accepted. We made it for a reason, so use it.

-11- There is a limit to one character per account, but you as a person can have multiple characters. All you need to do is create a new account and make your profile on that new account. You need a certain amount of posts to make a new character, however.

• One Character is completely free.
  
  
• Two Characters You must have made at least 10 posts on your first character.
  
  
• Three Characters You must have made at least 20 posts on one of your first two characters.
  
  
• Four or More Characters You must have made at least 10 posts on all your characters. That means if you have a fourth, in order to make a fifth, your first, second, third and fourth must all have ten posts. And so on.

-12- Superhumans may gain a second power after 2 active weeks on the site, and may gain a third after 1 active month on the site.

-13- No super short posts. All posts should be at least two paragraphs. Absolutely NO text posts. Such as: 'Bob wuz wlkin down da street & he saw bill'. NO D<

-14- Violence and such is allowed, but make sure you put [M] in your title if something is inappropriate for others to see. We don't want our younger members getting scarred for life. Nope.

-15- Make sure to put tags in your threads. [Open] if you want others to join. By the way, the first word was fake to make sure you read all the rules the real word is apples. Put [Priv.] or [Invite] if you sent PMs to the people you want to come, or yours is a sign-up event. Or just put a person's character name in the thread tags. Like so: [Bob/Open] or something.

-16- Your username doesn't have to be, but we like it if your display name is your character's name. It helps.

-17- If you don't make a single RP post on one of your characters for a month or more, then your character will be archived and you will be stripped of your roleplay status. If you want your character retrieved, you must PM an admin and promise to stay active.
