General Board

- Common sense, people. You should know what is and isn't appropriate to say or do. Let's keep it friendly.
- Try to keep the language down. People swear, and that's a fact, but you don't need to go overboard. If your character swears a lot, keep it in the RP. We don't need the f-bomb being dropped all over.
- Spam is fun, but keep the spam in the Gamers Corner as well as the games.
- If you have suggestions or questions, the admins are happy to help. Post your questions in the admin help forum and we'll do our best to fix any problems.
- Follow the rules. Seriously. It isn't that hard. Most of these really are just common sense, but do your best to remember them, okay~?


Character sign-up/reservation

- Characters will be held for 4 days after the post reserving them. If you don't post your finished application by then, the character will be marked as open again. You are free to reserve them a second time, but after that, you can't reserve the same character.
- Post your applications in the main app board. An administrator or mod will post a reply to your app and move it should it be accepted.
- No more than two canons and three OC's per person.
- You are not required to make a new account for each character you create, but please colour-code posts if you have more than one.
- Maybe I'm asking for someone to go apeshit, but why not, let's allow genderbending~ (This does not mean there can be two Gilbert's [male and female], it just means that, if you want to genderbend, go ahead. Be reasonable with it.
- Please note that, while I am allowing gender-bending, this is intended to bring more female characters onto the board. Hetalia is a very male-heavy series, and just in a manner of fairness as far as gender goes, I wanted to allow more girls to come. I do apologize to those who want to have males, but really, there are enough of them to pick from.
- Keep in mind, this IS a GAKUEN forum. If you're going to use a picture for your appearance instead of describing, then use a Gakuen picture. Photobucket has tons of them and it just takes a little looking. If you're really having trouble, ask an admin for help.


Roleplaying
- For the love of all that is good and holy, NO GOD-MODDING!
- No killing off other people's characters.
- Mark mature posts with "NSFW" in their titles. We don't really have an age requirement here, but we don't want to get anyone in trouble, either.
- You must post at least once a week in order to keep your character. Failure to do so will result in your profile being moved to the "Frozen Applications." Once this happens, you have one more week to re-claim your character and post or you will lose them.
- Please, please, no chat speak. If you're talking out of character, a small "lol" or "ttyl" is fine, but don't use it in the actual roleplaying.
- This is a literate board. The roleplays should be written in paragraph form with "quotation marks" for speaking. No *stars* for actions either please (unless you are in the cbox).
- We would also like it if the c-box roleplaying was kept to a minimum. This is here for the threads. Use them.
- Reiterating on the literacy of the board, there is a two paragraph minimum for roleplay post size. This isn't a lot to ask, so please follow it.
- If you have read all the rules, the p@ssc0de is "soggy waffles with maple syrup".
- Clubs are fairly lax and open. If you want to join or start a club, add a reply to the master club list and an admin will take care of it.
- No more than 3-4 clubs per character. This is just to make things easier for you and everyone else. You can only be in a position of power [president, VP, etc] for two of these clubs.
- To avoid the whole "pairing wars" thing, we're only going to allow single pairings on the forum. The c-box is different, and you can really suggest whatever you want there, but couples will need to comment on the pairing thread to make their pairing "forum canon."
EXAMPLE: If Gilbert and Roderich sign up, then on the board, neither Gilbert or Roderich can be romantically involved with others.
- If you want your character to break up with whom you are with, this is fine. Just be sure to let an admin know so it's taken off the list--please don't constantly be breaking up and getting back together.


Fan Stuff
- When posting fanart or fanfiction, please use the below template at the start of your post.

Code:
 
[b]Series:[/b]
[b]Title:[/b] (For fanfiction only.)
[b]Genre:[/b] (For fanfiction only.)
[b]Rating:[/b]
[b]Pairings:[/b] (If any.)
[b]Warnings:[/b]


- If you post something that isn't yours, CREDIT IT! Link to the original or the place you found it.
- Since this is a Hetalia site, please try to only post related things, but no one will bite or get upset if you post a story for another fandom.
- If you have a multi-chapter story, ask the admin, and a sub-board will be added for you to post all the chapters in together for convince. Just use a PM for this.
