mwahmwah, the admin.

like any other site, reading the rules is a must. so go on, do it.
REGISTRATION
some people may find this rule stupid, but i certainly don't. because, for one, people
are ignorant and go along with registering with whatever they want. or they didn't
realise that it is not proboards that they're using here. anyway, so the basic idea is
that you register in lower case, in your character's name, and with a middle name.
don't give me something like omggzzzfalloutgurl453, or Kale Michael Williams, or Kale
Williams. the best way to do it is kale michael williams. in fact, that's no best way.
it's a fucking requirement, so there. oh, if you make a mistake, though, feel free to
pm an admin. but if i find that you post an application with the wrong username,
then i might give you a warning for not reading the rules.

WHERE TO POST?
please, the first thing you do after you registered is to post an application. don't post
anywhere else. i understand if you want to post model claim, but if i see two applications
with the same face used, then i will reserve the one who first finished the application and
tell the other to please use another face. how's that? good deal? of course.

but that's not the point. the point is that you don't post anywhere until a member of
the staff team had reviewed your application, and accepted you. if you post somewhere
other than your application, then you will receive a warning, no exceptions.

RESPECT
it's just about the most important rule, because, frankly, i hate people who disrespect. i
mean, in real life, you can't take things back. but here, you have the fucking edit button.
you can go back and edit what you said if it might offend, but for those who don't even
do that? _pO does not welcome you. it's towards everyone, too. not just the admins.
don't think that we won't find out. if you are being disrespectful, the offended member
can pm an admin. you will get a warning, and if you break this again. you won't get
a second warning. off the site you go!

GODMODDING
in the roleplay world, godmodding is what we despise and hate. what does godmodding
mean? well, what it means is that you, as the player, goes along and controls someone
else's player in your writing. you only have control over your character, and no one else.
you will be warned if caught doing this. if you still don't understand, here's an example:

kale turned to look at zara, and suddenly, she leaped forward and smacked her lips on him.

geddit? good. don't do it. after all, you ain't god. 'nuff said.

PREGNANCY
yes, this is allowed. but just don't go overboard with these things, because you really
don't want a million babies running around, screaming for their mamas. there is exactly
one canon that is pregnant, but that's all. if you would like to go along with a pregnancy
plot, please discuss it with an admin first. for one, we'll know, and for two, we can help.

DRUGS, ALCOHOL
this is also allowed, because, hey! we're trying to make this place as realistic as possible.
it's high school, after all. besides, many of the canons are based on these two,
life-wrecking factors that usually, well, wrecks lives. haha, uh, yeah. anyway, so yes,
it's allowed. just don't overdo it.

DEATH
i don't see why not, but i really don't see why, either. why would you want your
character dead? well, for whatever reason, it is allowed, as long as you have good
reasons. but you have to plan everything - how they die, does anyone care, etc. just
make sure you pm an admin for approval first. if it sounds ridiculous, then no way jose.
if you are only killing your character off because you can no longer play it, then please
just put them up for adoption. death may offend people, and we wouldn't want that.

SPAMMING
you will only be told this once. don't spam. seriously. it's annoying, and makes people
want to smash their heads into their computer monitors. the edit button is there for you
to edit, so use it! if you have nothing to say, then don't say anything. i read the rules. i
know, because i can say 'jack's mannequin!' unless it's a roleplay thread. but you get
what i mean. also, don't double post. edit button!

POSTING
first, there's the proper english. so i get that you may not have perfect english (i
understand, as i'm chinese), but it would do us all a favour if you try your best in it. as this
site is advanced. also, D0n't typ3 lyk3 di5. 'kay? it's annoying, even in OOC. i can cope with
things like lol, and lmao. but don't l33t speak. okay? okay.

the length; it has to be at least three paragraphs long, each with 10 sentences or more.
it's not hard. trust me. i mean, you wouldn't like it if you write such a long reply and
all someone could give you is a oneliner. it pisses people off, and people can't work off
it. we all understand writers' block, but three paragraphs really ain't that hard.

AMOUNT OF CHARACTERS
you can have up to 6 characters, but that's all. in those 6, 3 have to be male. which
means that you have to make a male next, if your first character is female. this is so
the boy/girl ratio stays even. also, in your 6 characters, you are only allowed two
canon characters, and no more. give people a chance to play a canon, won't you?

GRAPHICS
please, please, please have pretty graphics. ha, this sounds stupid. but i just want to
keep the site pretty. and also, the avatar must be 150x150 or less. the signature can
either be icons, or a banner. only one row of icons are allowed, in which there can be
up to 3 icons. for the banner; it must be 450x250 or less. that's all.

MOST IMPORTANTLY...
have fun! that's why kenza and i made this site, after all.

these rules are subject to change.
