• when first registering, please change your name to your character's first and last name in lower case

[/b] letters. Middle name is optional. The reason I ask it be in lower case is because I've seen several other sites like that, and I just think it looks better that way. If you don't do this correctly, that tells me that you most likely didn't read the rules and I will be a very unhappy camper.
[/li][li]One-liners = bad. I ask that your posts be at least[/u] two decent-sized paragraphs long. This is all I expect of you, there is no word count limit. I understand everyone has off days, but if your so off that you can't muster that much up, than just post in the c-box or somewhere that your muse is off and you'll post whenever it comes back to you.
[/li][li]Only use chatspeak in the IM, cell (texting), or Myspace boards. Anywhere else, your posts must be typed out correctly (*cough*spellcheck*cough*) in third person (he, she, they, them, etc.) and past tense.
[/li][li]No god-moding. If you god-mode or power play I will come after you with a pitchfork. Seriously.
[/li][li]Sex, drug use, alcohol use, cussing -- this is all to be expected, this is a mature site. I do ask, however, that if you are going to have adult content in a thread please indicate so in the title. If it comes up unexpectedly, the thread starter can go back and change the title.
[/li][li]Make your claims. I was lenient about this when I first started my other site, and it got sort of chaotic. Face and canon claims (if your character is canon, if not then don't worry about it) are both required. Other sorts of claims (IM, Myspace, etc.) are optional and just there for your convenience.
[/li][li]This is a no-app site, however I have provided a small application for those who wish to fill one out. It's not required to fill one out before role-playing, but it's not a bad idea to go back and fill it out later on.
[/li][li]If you say something out of character in a role play thread, please indicate so by using some form of brackets ( (), [], etc.)
[/li][li]This ones important. If you want your character to be turned into a vampire sometime throughout the plot, you must contact me. Not everyone is going to become a vampire, so I need to keep this organized.[/li][/ul]

• No out of character fighting. Even if your characters hate each other, keep the drama strictly IC. The c-box and non-roleplay boards are not for internet drama. If there is a problem, sort it through PM or let an admin or mod know.
  
• EVERYONE DESERVES RESPECT.

[/u] I will not tolerate any sort of racism, sexism, or most any other kind of "-ism" there is. If you see this in any of the out of character boards or the chatbox, let an admin know.
*in character posts of this nature are acceptable, as long as they aren't too outrageous or offensive
[/li][li]Cussing in non-roleplay boards or the c-box is okay as long as you don't make yourself sound like an uneducated hick by saying "Eff this, eff that," every other word.[/li][/ul]

• There is no character limit, but you are only allowed two canon characters that are involved in subplots, and for every two girl characters you must have a boy. Also, you must have at least 10 roleplay posts before starting a new character.
  
• Stay active. If you're going to be gone for more than a week, post so in the absenses board.
  
• Don't make your signature stretch the board. An admin will delete your sig if this happens, it really gets on my nerves. Don't make it too tall, either.
