OOC RULES
1. No god-modding OR power playing. The only exception to this rule is if you ask permission from whomever is in your thread. As for power playing, its simple to say that not all of your punches or interactions with another character will land. Instead of assuming and adding such things in your post, leave it open for the other person to insert their characters reaction.
2. The icon limit is 200px wide and 300px in height. Your icons shouldn't be larger then this. Signatures shouldn't be larger then 500px long, they can be a little bigger though AS LONG AS it doesn't stretch the forum in anyway.
3. No Gary Stu, or May Sue's here please. Not all characters are capable of knowing and or learning everything. Everyone has a weakness, keep that in mind.
4. Respect. That doesn't mean just the staff, but everyone. Treat others how you'd like to be treated.
5. There is no word count here, but I think I speak for everyone in saying that one liners aren't preferred. Even if you have lack of muse at least try for a paragraph or so; it helps the reader, with even just that extra bit of writing.
6. No thread limit. There is no limit to the number of threads you are allowed to be in.
7. No character limit.
8. Be Active. New members are always welcome, but please try not to join and then just leave for eternity. We all want to read and plot with you. No teasing.
9. FACE CLAIM REQUIRED. To claim a face you simply use a character from an anime, game, movie, or manga as a representation of your character, and place that information where it's specified in your application. To be accepted you NEED to have one. No celebrity FC's. There are no exceptions for this. [Originals accepted - see FC thread for more dets.]
CBOX RULES
1. No Drama. Like mentioned before, respect is always welcome. Petty drama and fighting is not appreciated, especially in the cbox. If you have an argument that you feel must be carried out, use other means of doing that outside of the site. If you have a serious problem, please feel free to speak with an admin. DO IT OKAY! It'll save everyone the trouble before an issue gets out of hand.
2. No Advertising. This goes for both guests and members. Theres a special place on the site meant for advertising, and its not the chat box.
3. No Spamming. Self explanatory. Just try not to flood the cbox kay.
4. No Harassing. Whether its the staff or a fellow member, this can get fairly annoying. Its alright to remind someone of a post, but give that person some time beforehand. As for the staff, dont harass us to get to your profiles. We will look over them asap dont worry. If it's been a couple days however, a nudge is just fine.
PENALTY SYSTEM
To understand the warning policy and what it entails glance over the following. Take into consideration that the consequences all depend on the severity of the action or offense. Therefore, there should be no reason or excuse to any repeat offenders once you've already been warned.
First offense / warning - Will receive a PM by an admin, basically a warning stating the actions that has caused them to receive the notice. You are able to defend yourself, and communicate your reasoning; however this is a warning nonetheless, take it seriously. If you were of no fault, then you shouldn't need a second warning.
Second warning - Another PM will be sent, warning the user that their account will be subject to suspension if their actions continue. This warning is much more serious, due to the punishment that follows.
Third offense - Account will be suspended/disabled for a designated amount of time. Depending on the severity of your actions the suspension may vary in time. [You will receive a PM or notification before suspension has been carried out]
Fourth offense - Account will be deleted.
