Thanks for reading! Sorry it's so long, just wanted to get it all out there. Overall, don't do anything stupid or obnoxious. It gets on everybody's nerves. Participate whenever possible, a Role Playing Game just isn't fun with out participation!
001 | First thing's first, this site is made PG-13 due to Proboards TOS. If you have not taken a look at them yet, I suggest you do so here. This is a DC based site which means we follow the rules of the DC universe. If something is possible there, and it wouldn’t be in real life then it would be possible in ours Anyways these are the rules of the site so listen up.
002 | Post in third person! It just makes sense from if you go from one post to another. We know who you are talking about in third person. We don’t like having to go back to the character profile to figure out who “I” is. And second person is just a weird way of typing, I don’t think anyone understand that, and if you do, hats off to you, but we don’t use it here.
003 | You are allowed to have an icon of your character. That icon can be no larger than 100x100. If it's larger, then it will automatically be sized down to 65x65. It must be of your character that is that profile. You are allowed to have a signature of your character. It can be no larger than 500x200. Any longer and it doesn't look right/stretches the page. It must be of your character that is that profile.
004 | There is no word count here. We just ask that you post as much as you can, in order to give the person you are roleplaying with something to work with. It is frustrating when you put a lot of effort into a post, and then get only a few sentence replies. Generally if you can post a paragraph or two it will be alright as long as the person you are posting with has something to respond to.
005 | This site is a drama free zone. That means keep your OOC feelings separate from your IC feelings. This also means no sexist, homophobic, racist, or other degrading remarks of any kind. If you flame, or troll, or do anything of the sort don’t expect to be very tolerant of you. This also extends to trashing other sites, you will not do that here period
006 | There is an advertising board for a reason. If you try to advertise your site anywhere else on the board, expect me to return the favor in kind.
007 | As per Proboards terms of use, no pornographic material is to be on this site at any time, whether it is through a link, or anything else. Keep it PG-13 people.
008 | Joining this site means that you are going to respect your fellow roleplayers, and those who run, and moderate the site. It is suppose to be a fun, and enjoyable community so let’s do our best to keep it that way.
009 | Don’t spam
010 | We only accept animated faceclaims from anime, or video games. You however cannot use Face Claims from the Dragonball series because the art style doesn’t really mesh with ours.
REGISTRATION
011 | We do not care what username you sign up with. As long at some point before you get accepted or right after you change it to First Middle Last name of your character.
012 | Again I know that this is a site based around super powers, but be very careful about godmodding. Everyone has exploitable weaknesses even Superman got caught off guard. Everyone can be hit, and hurt in some way. Godmodding is essentially making your character un beatable just remember everyone is beatable.
013| You are not allowed to post in any IC board until your character has been accepted. I will do my best to make sure that your bio is accepted within 3 days of you completing it because I know how frustrating it is to have to wait forever to roleplay on a site that you are excited about.
014| When you are ready to make a new character you must make a new account, and then register them under that account.
CHARACTERS
015 | Bios are allowed to be posted even when they are still being worked on. Actually, we prefer that so that we know you are working on a character and haven't forgotten about us. Bios must be filled out properly to be accepted. This means nothing to make the template look different from the others. If you change the bio then it will be rejected.
016 | Characters left abandon and/or inactive (and/or players inactivity) for more than 30+ days, their character(s) will be moved to the archived character board. If you must be away for a long period of time due to circumstances beyond your control, you must post about such things in the absences board. We will work with you to the best of our ability.
CHAT BOX
017 | Do not spam, advertise in, or bash the site/members of this site in the CBox. If it's a member that is doing this, I will confront you and/or them about it. If it continues, I will take action. All advertising should be done in the forum designated for advertising. And spamming, well it's just not nice. The cbox is there specifically for communicating with other members and guests. Not for your random typing pleasures. While not necessarily a rule it is appreciated if you have an avatar of your character in the cbox so people can see who you play.
PUNISHMENT
018 | For any rule breakers out there, a PM will be sent to you once we have found that you have broken a rule above asking you to fix it. If you have not responded (to the PM or by fixing it) within a week, you will be sent an email of your violation. If it has still not been fixed within a week after that, your account will be banned.
If you do fix it, time will go on. If you break the rules 2 more times, your account will be suspended for a period of time upon staff discussion.
If you repeat after your account has been suspended, you will no longer be able to roleplay with us.
Thanks for reading! Sorry it's so long, just wanted to get it all out there. Overall, don't do anything stupid or obnoxious. It gets on everybody's nerves. Participate whenever possible, a Role Playing Game just isn't fun with out participation!
