Plain and simple. 002. ● Be active. Ditching isn't cool. Let us know if you're going away for a while, so we don't think you've ditched and let someone else have your PB. 003. ● There is no word count. 004. ● There is an app, and it needs to be accepted before you do anything around here. 005. ● No, you may not make an animal/supernatural character/have powers. This is a real-life human RPG. Real-life stuff only. characters , JOINING AND PLAYING THEM 006. ● An application is required. And you must use the one we provide for you, not something you made yourself/from somewhere else. 007. ● No characters are perfect. Everyone needs flaws of some sort. 008. ● Your display name should be your character's first name, middle initial, and last name in all caps, like this: JAMES E. WILSON 009. ● Drama is fine, but be realistic. Don't go overboard, please. 010. ● Fill out claims as soon as possible after your app is accepted. 011. ● Speaking of claims, only real celebs are allowed- models, actors/actresses, singers, band members, etc. NO web celebs, people you know in real life, and certainly no people who have asked not to be used. 012. ● This RPG is geared more toward adult characters. We prefer characters in their mid-twenties and up, but the absolute minimum character age is 18. 013. ● Characters must age during their birth month. We will change the month every 3 weeks, so if your character has a birthday in April, for example, once the site is in April, you must age the character a year. Nobody likes eternally-25-year-olds. claims & graphics , A GUIDE TO CLAIMING AND SIZES 014. ● Maximum icon dimensions are 150 pixels wide by 250 pixels tall. Smaller than that is fine, but any larger will be resized. 015. ● Signatures should be no more than 500 pixels wide. Height ca be whatever, as long as it's not ridiculously huge. 016. ● No nudity in your pictures. It violates Proboards TOS and could get us deleted. If we see nipples or any genitals, we're taking your images down. 017. ● Claim only after you are accepted. There are no reservations, except for wanted faces. 018. ● Don't claim a face if you're not going to have graphics. You should at least have an icon or something. Otherwise, it's not fair to others. If you need graphics made, request some in the OOC board. other stuff , ASSORTED OTHER RULES 019. ● Don't copy things from people. It's rude, and very much against the rules. Anyone caught copying something from someone else will be banned. 020. ● This goes without saying, but for the record: you play your character, and nobody else's. You can not say what someone else's character does, thinks, says, feels, etc., without the player's permission. And certainly no killing someone else's character without permission. 021. ● If you're going to kill your character off, let the admins know so we can deal with the character's app accordingly. 022. ● If you're going to make your (female) character have a baby, reply to the kids claim. Same goes for if your character joins with a kid.
