General Rules
  1. No Spamming - Spamming is the posting of unproductive posts that do not contribute to the topic, or just barely manage to do so. It is also the posting of useless topics or topics that lack the possibility of decent discussion.

  2. No Trolling - Trolling is posting with the clear intent of starting an argument or controversy in attempts to gain attention. If someone is clearly trolling, do not contribute to it. Ignore them.
    No Flaming - Flaming is the outright insulting of other members for no other clear reason than degradation.

  3. No Pornographic Material - Nudity can be respected if it is in an artistic sense, but images should not be posted directly on the page. Please link to the imagery, instead, and label it as "NWS", or "Not Work Safe". The same goes for overtly sexual language and discussion. Please take it to PMs or off of the site entirely.

  4. Use the Search Function - Please try not to make multiple threads about the same topic or with the same question. Use the search function, first. If you cannot find a topic similar to yours with the search, then it is generally safe to assume that it is not there.

  5. Respect Each Other - Even if you hate a particular member of the site with a fiery passion, treat them with respect, and keep your hatred to yourself. In particular, do your best to not use an off-putting tone with new members. The first thing that they see from the player base should not be the thing that drives them away.

  6. No Reiteration - Expressing your opinion on a topic is fine, but do not have your posts simply entail "I agree with Jimmy". Also, do not simply repeat what someone else has already said. It's understandable if the thread is several pages long, and you don't wish to read the whole thing, but try to include content to differentiate or elaborate your opinions.

RPG-Related Rules
  1. One Account per Player - Do not make an account for each one of your characters. Pick whatever name you're most comfortable with and register with only one account.

  2. Number of Characters - Unless you have maintained activity with all of your characters, do not make any more than five. If you are active with all five of your characters, you may ask the staff for permission to use more.

  3. No Photography - If you wish to use images to represent your character's appearance, please do not use any photography. Use drawn or rendered images, instead. Note that this does not restrict you from using real people to represent your character. They may still be used, but any images of them should be drawn or rendered.

  4. Post Length - Please make sure your posts are detailed, and at least one or two paragraphs. As a rule of thumb, don't leave your RP partner feeling like they're doing all the work, and make sure to give them something with which they can reply. However, also try not to write incredibly long posts that have no substance.
