Here are the rules, live them, follow them, breath them.

1.Registering:
1.1 Please register with a first name for your character at the very least. You may post middle and last names if you wish. Example: Jane Smith, doing something like ILUVPIE!!<3 does not work, so please do it right the first time.
1.2 Remember, that in order to join you have to be over 13 years of age, if we do find out that you are younger we will remove your account and ban your IP address. Sorry, but its not only our rule, but also a Zetaboard rule.
1.3 Please do not register then "forget" to make and application, we will find out and we will deal with you properly.
1.4 If you are planning then making a character then leaving without posting, you might as well leave right now and save us all the trouble. It is a waste of both your time and ours.

2. Applications
2.1 Please make your application within four days of registering, we are going to be trying to keep this site as clean as possible.
2.2 When you are accepted your application will be moved to the accepted section.
2.3 When filling out the application, please do not use one word or one line answers for things that may require something along the lines of three paragraphs.
2.4 This rule is a basic NO MARY-STUS or GARY STUS, no one is perfect, and all characters have some sort of flaw. No one likes them. Please look it up if you don't know what it means.
2.5 Do not post an incomplete application, you will be notified and the application removed and you will have to do it again. Sorry.
2.6 You cannot be both Vampire and Human at the same time, one or the other.

3. Advertisement
3.1 If you would like to advertise, please go to the proper section and post it there.
3.2 You may post links to your site in your sig but discreetly so
3.3 Please do not sign up for an account just to advertise, we will remove not only your account but also your post.

4. C-Box
4.1 Now this is just basic manners. No in character rping, do not harass other members, be polite, and courteous, and if you wouldn't say something in front of your grandmother then don't say it here. In other words KEEP SWEARING OUT OF THE C-BOX!

5. Roleplaying
5.1 Do not roleplay in first person, this is not only confusing but after a while it can become annoying for not only you but whomever you are rping with.
5.2 This is a R rated site, moderate swearing is allowed, but if every other word out of your characters mouth is a swear, then you will be warned and if you continue, you will be banned. Please be courteous.
5.3 No God-modding, this is basic. Don't control other peoples characters. If this is seen, please notify an admin and we will deal with the person in the appropiate manner. It can also be called Meta-gaming or Power-playing. Do not do it.
5.4 This is a literate site, so please use proper grammer and spelling, please post at least one paragraph per post. If someone does five paragraphs and you only do a sentence in return, thats just not right. So when you are RPing keep it even please.
5.5 If you are planning to get a character pregnant or are planning to kill them off. Let an Admin know then wait for permision, because you can't exactly kill of a main character then expect everything to go on hunky-dory. It doesn't work that way.
5.6 Put ((brackets like these for out of character))
5.7 Sex, if you are planning on doing this with another character, but (M) in the title.

6. Activity
6.1 Be active. At least once every three days, that means actually posting in an active thread with your character.
6.2 If you are planning on going away for a long period of time. Let an Admin know and whomever you are roleplaying with. It wouldn't hurt to post in the going away thread.

7. General
7.1 So here are the general rules:
-be courteous to the other members
-try not to get the mods or admins pissed off
-spell check is everyones friends although some spelling and grammer errors will be allowed.
-don't harrass people
-don't double post in IC Rping areas, thats what the edit button is for.

8. CONSEQUENCES!!!!!!
This is your warning system.
1- Strike one, a friendly and nice PM informing you of what you did wrong and what you can do to fix it. You will get this either for behavioral reasons or for ignoring past PM's about important issues.
2- Strike two, less friendly PM explaining to you what you did wrong and also informing you that this is your second warning and that you are expected to comply.
3. Third strike, if this was baseball you would be out right now. Seeing as how this might be your last warning suits well. You will get a blunt PM from both the Admins telling you exactly what you are doing wrong and what you have to do to fix it in order stay.
4- Fourth strike, the fact that you actually made it this far surprises us. But either way, welcome to the "Write your character death" this is where you will get to write your characters death, and your character will be deleted from the site. Awe, muffin. You will be suspended for a amount of time decided by the admins. When the time is up, you may come back but you have to make a different character, and we will be watching you and it will be harder to get accepted.
5-Fifth strike. Congratulations, your banned. Not just your characters but also you IP adress this is permanent, so unless you can really kiss up to a mod or admin to vouch for you. Good luck in getting back, seriously, because I doubt that it will happen.

Blah, that was long winded, but those are the rules and they are subjected to change at any time. Welcome to Castles or Sanctuary!
