In other words, the rules.
Don't
1. No Spamming. You all know what spam is (not the lunch meat) and it is prohibited on this site! If you don't know what spam is, PM Peregrine or Raver.
2. This site is PG-13. You are allowed to swear ( as long as you are not swearing in Mass PMs) however don't over-do it, otherwise this priveledge will be removed. Also, there is to be no use of the F word in posts. There is an R rated board called Extreme Romance, and the password to it is I<3u.
3. No Double posting. Except the admin, Peregrine. If you need to fix something from a previous post, use the "modify" button. If one of us catches you double posting, you will be warned three times, then banned.
4. No Sexual references/Harassment- This going far as posting nudity or porn links to talking about another member negatively. It is against the proboards rules and ours. It is not needed. If I catch you (and I will) doing it, I will ban you permanently.
5. Giving out passwords. Please only do this when adopting a character. And please have the two people doing this PM me. Also, if two characters have a child, they are allowed to share the password and both play the child.
6. Don't argue with the staff. It makes us mad. You don't want to be around us when we're mad.
7. No God modeling. I am a fairly tolerant admin, however, this is the one thing I will not tolerate. If you GM, even in a subtle way, I will ask you to modify your post. If you do not do as I ask, I will modify it for you.
8. Power Playing. Do not over do this. You may PP a little, as long you are within the magic rules. But PP makes other RPers angry. Please keep that in mind.
Here are the magic rules:
No summoning anything or anyone. This is not Harry Potter. You may communicate telepathically, but no summoning anyone or anything by magic.
No Flying. Unless you are riding on a flying creature such as a dragon. Or if you are a flying creature. Or if you are hitching a ride with a flying creature. Or if your alternate form is a flying creature. Other then that, I do not want to see people levitating and zooming around.
No creating money by magic.
No creating Food by magic. Water is allowed only if your character's element is water. Or if they are skilled at their own element, they produce a small amount of water.
No Apparating. This means your character disappears in one place, and reappears in another. Only vampires may do this. Vampires should either be full blood or 1/2 vampire in order to do this. If you are a vampire with less then 1/2 vampire blood, you should PM me to ask if you could be granted this special power.
No bringing back people from the dead.
Magic is energy-draining. Just FYI. ;D
9. You need to have a first and last name as your display name.
10. No chat speak in RP. Please use quotation marks, correct punctuation and grammar, and please make your posts as detailed as possible.
11. This site is an intermediate role play site, which means we are literate/semi literate. This means that all posts must be a minimum of 6 good sentences long. If you starting a thread, then your opening post must be at least two good paragraphs long with five good sentences in each. Also, you must role play in third person in the past tense unless stated otherwise. And finally, all spelling, grammar, punctuation and capitalization must be correct. Everyone makes a typo now and again, but please use spell check! If your posts are full of grammatical or spelling errors, too short, in the incorrect tense, or person. I will first ask you to modify your post(s) before continuing. If you ignore me or continue to make short and cruddy posts, then I shall lock the thread. The code word for your character profile is joust.
12. Your character must be approved by Peregrine before you begin to role play.
