THE RULES
general rules . important rules . useful information
⋆ respect for everyone. give respect to staff, members and guests, they are a person behind their username and do not need to earn the respect, they should be given it. however should any staff, member or guest gives anyone trouble or disrespect please pm me or elf.
⋆ pg-13 environment, please respect that some of our members will be on the younger side. also the probaords tosstate that you must be 13 years old to join.
⋆ professional usernames, please nothing that is hard to retype of understand. so no, hgt232hkh or cat1man_19. simple ones such as hedley1, or batman12 is alright. just keep in mind that we'd like your username to be similar to your ooc name.
⋆ just remember if you have any questions on what is appropriate for proboards can be found on proboards tos located here.
⋆ absence board, if where you will post if you are gone longer then five days. we'd like to know if you're going to away simply so we do not have an activity check and accidentally delete your account, and move your characters to the dead board.
⋆ graphics, please do not stretch the board! that is all we ask! once we get the code for avatars, we hope to have them be roughly 150x200, but for now they are 100x100.
⋆ we'd like you all to write with the english language, please! we don't mind if you use some small text words such as lol, brb and ttyl.
⋆ stock images. we'd really like if you used stocked images so we don't have law suits! we have a stock image thread you can look at as well.character rules . role play rules
⋆ no character limit! we'd like you to keep all all your characters active. we'd also like to mention (we are not going to enforce it) that you try to keep your ratio of male to female even.
⋆ biography time limit is considered to be 1 week. we'd like it if you can complete it with in that time week - if you do not, we will give you a warning and reminder and by the end of the second week if you have not completed it, it will be decided as a dead thread and moved.
⋆ ’ title format. now i want the accepted board to look nice and neat, so please put your title as NAME -- rank. also role-playing! you are not to role-play until your character is accepted.
⋆ ’ we have a 250 words posting min. we'd ask that you all meet this! it's a very simple word limit and if you go into the 1000s, then way to go! however if your partner posts a long rp post, then we ask that you post at least half of what they posted. for example say my partner posts a 1000 word post, i'll have to reply with a 500 words post at least.
⋆ power playing and being god-like are unacceptable! (unless given permission from your rp partner!) you can not have your person dodger every attack sent their way, or hit their foe every time. they must lose and gain. also do not play your rp partner's character, it is rude, and you don't know how they want their person to react. unless given permission of course.chat rules . chat box rules . follow them
⋆ no spamming. it's disrespectful, and makes the site look unclean. when posting in the chatbox, please note that any more then five posts in a row will be considered as spamming.
⋆ no excessive swearing, i can understand a shit or bitch slipping out, but please refrain from more harsh words. we are a pg-13 board, but some of us may be older users and sometimes we can't help it.
⋆ no advertising! this is disrespectful! we have a board for you to post in, and we'd like if you keep it that way. if you place your site in your name, then that's fine, just don't go around telling people to click your name.
⋆ no fighting. again this makes the form look unprofessional and unclean! take it to pm, or better yet, don't fight at all! yes, let's keep this as a friendly environment, and if you have a disagreement with a member take it to a staff member, or pm.
⋆no excessive caps, because again it makes the site look unprofessional and unclean. of course you can us cap words, but please don't always type like this.
⋆no excessive chat speak. d0n't t@lk l!ke th!$ please! oh my gosh, it looks so gross and ugly. please reply with clear words, or simple chat speaks like brb, ttyl, lol, omfg, omg and other simple chat speaks.
⋆ no impersonating! this is rude and disrespectful, please remember that! if you know how it feels to be impersonated then you'll understand why. it sucks, and just don't do it!other rules . other info . thanks
