Welcome to ‘Out In The Black’ a fanon based RPG of the Firefly verse (universe). Please be sure you know our rules and guidelines before doing anything else on the forum. They aren’t long, they aren’t strict, but are here to maintain a proper community where everyone will feel welcomed. And generally are just common sense rules. If you have any questions regarding our rules and guidelines, then please contact a staff member!
Registering and Accounts
- - Your character needs to have a first and last name.
- - One account per character, so you can have multiple accounts, thus multiple characters. (read the last rule if you want more then one charcter)
- - Please avoid using names already used by other accepted members.
- - You must be at least 13 years before you can register.
- - After registering, please complete and post your application for the staff to review. The staff may ask for changes or additions to help integrate your character into the story.
- - Inactive accounts that don’t post after registering will be deleted after a month or so.
- - Please read up on all the mandatory information at least before making your profile.
- - Before registering a new account for a new character, contact 'ShinLi' before you do so. It's also handy that with your current character you have some activity already (IC). All the characters you have are your responsibility and you have to keep active with all of them. No making characters just for the sake of it.
General Rules & Guidelines
- - No flaming of other members/staff, and no provoking of flame wars.
- - No spamming, no opening of useless threads or unnecessary posting. This is a rule for the entire board, and also counts for guests posting in guest friendly sections and/or c-box.
- - We do not allow attacks on staff, our members or our forum in general.
Roleplaying Rules & Guidelines
- - Characters can’t be 100% flawless or perfect, this includes Mary-Sue characters. They will not be accepted, and if you play them like this, you will receive a warning.
- - Powerplaying is forbidden. This means you cannot play the actions or speech of any other character.
- - One-lines are not allowed. We prefer quality over quantity. I’m not going to give anyone a minimum post length, as I hope we have all role-played long enough to know what quality posts are. This is not an 'elite' board and players of all levels are welcomed, as we hope to strive for a community where people can improve their rp'ing skills too.
- - Be descriptive when roleplaying. Not only roleplay what your character is saying, but also what he/she feels, thoughts, describe surroundings. Give the other person something to work with.
- - Posting is done in third person, past tense. First person is only allowed in places like logbooks etc.
- - Use proper grammar, spelling, punctuation and capitalization. We won’t start to nag on every little error. But please use a spell check before you post if you aren’t sure about your spelling.
- - Do not use brightly coloured, tiny text. It hurts the eyes.
Avatar & Signature Rules
- - Avatars maximum size is 150x150.
- - Signatures maximum size would be 500x200 pixels. This can be one picture, or multiple smaller pictures.
- - Please use an avatar and signature to represent your character. You can claim a play-by, or face claim, in the appropriate topic. Please avoid using 'scene queens' or very well-known celebrities. And of course no porn or obscene stuff. We would like to stick to 'real life' play-bys.
- - Links in your signature are allowed, but only that link to this forum (so your profile, plotting sheet, an rp’ing thread etc.) Links to other forums/sites aren’t allowed.
At any and all times you can PM the staff if you have any questions, suggestions or problems. Or post in the help forum. We are here to help you, not to snap of your heads :D. We will reply to your pm or thread asap!
((Rules could be added/edited any time without notification! New rules will be marked with an *))
