1. Be at least semi-literate. A spelling mistake now and then is okay, but please do use the spell check that's on the site. Punctuation is a must, I shouldn't even have to explain this. Also, use some form of OOC: when you are talking out of character. Finally, since this is a semi-literate board we expect you to write at least one paragraph which is to be no shorter than eight sentences. Not just filler sentences that are three words, either. They are expected to be good and thought out. If you're not up-to par we will give you a warning and allow you time to step up. If you continue to write at a low level we will have to kick you out. I know this sounds harsh but you have to give the other people something that's easy to work off of and fun to read.
2. Respect the admin and the rules. If you show disrespect you receive a warning. Do it again you will receive another warning. Do it a 3rd time and you will be banned for good. I don't want to be mean, but I really need the members to be respectful and listen.
3. No Godmoding or mary-sues. Godmoding is saying what the other person did. This usually happens in fights, so instead of saying the punch hit leave it up to the other person. Mary-sues are perfect characters. People aren't perfect in real life, don't make them so in the role play. We all have our faults, and we all can't do everything.
4. Spamming will earn you a warning, then a week ban, then a ban for good. Absolutely NO spamming in the C-box.
5. This Rp is to be kept PG, PG-13 MAX. It's Disney people, no sex scenes! Swearing is alright if it's in character, but no f-bombs or racial slurs.
6. Your user-name can be different then the name of your character. Just make sure to change your display name to the name of your character after you join. And please make sure your avatar and signature are that of your character. Speaking of graphics, we don't want half page sigs or sigs that stretch the board. It's ugly, don't do it. Also, if you need help with graphics go to the graphic board, we're more than happy to help.
7. You can have as many characters as you like, but keep them on separate accounts. (if you're a main character, only choose one main character, and then the others have to be made ups.) But no more than you can handle. If you make six characters, great! But use all of them at least once a week.
10. No made-ups that are the boyfriend or girlfriend of originals. Romances can develop over time, and you can maybe discuss it with the person role playing as whomever you want your character to get together with, but just no, BAM! Instant love. Also, if you want a sibling to an original you have to first discuss it with the admins and the character you want to be related to. If there's already a sibling created the chances of you being another one is probably not going to happen but you can still ask the admins and all characters involved.
11. Made-ups are allowed.
12. No made-ups that are secret siblings of any of the originals. That's good in soap operas but we want to be realistic here.
13. You must post in character at least once a week. Please inform us if you are going to be absent from the group for more then a week or so. strawberry shortcake I will PM you if I notice you have not been active as a warning. If you fail to respond and are inactive for two weeks or more, you will be kicked out of the group and your character will be taken away from you. Also, if you fail to post in the activity check for whatever reason you will be kicked out and deleted.
14. You are only allowed to start one to two new threads a week unless you're a moderator or unless you ask one of the staff for permission. We really can't have a zillion threads going at the same time! Going along with that be realistic with how many threads your character is in. Some threads overlap in time and your character can't be two places at once.
15. Best rule....have fun!!!
