01. RESPECT
Treat others with respect at all times! I'm sure your mother always taught you to be nice to others. Nobody, NOBODY likes to be picked on, flamed, made fun of, or brought down for any reason. We are a forum family here, so let me state this once more:
PLEASE BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER!
02. RATING
This is important. Why? Because I won't be held responsible for any hurt feelings nor will I sympathize to those of you who feel the content is inappropriate and somehow managed to miss this in the rules. We are rated PG-13, if this is too much for you, please don't join. Twilight is a seductive novel, and even the original concept of vampires were seductive. Meaning usually I would allow sex scenes, but as our board host doesn't believe in that, this will not be permitted. On a side note - If you post a spoiler
PUT A WARNING IN THE TITLE!
03. ACTIVITY
Please stay active! We really enjoy having company around here, and most sites today just die. We want to be an active community, so we request that you do not join if you know in advance that you cannot be active. We are working to avoid dying anytime in the near future, and we are a very new forum, and can always use as many loyal members as we can get. We thank you for showing an interest.
04. CHATBOXES
Rules about the chatbox. First and foremost,
DO NOT SPAM. We don't appreciate it, in fact nobody does. It's like opening your email to find 700 emails about hamster pelts. Who wants that? General chat is encouraged, but please refrain from posting links, if you wish to link here, please talk to an administrator. Keep profanity to a minimum, and please agree to disagree if someone brings up something you disagree with. We don't want too many arguments... In fact we'd like it if we had none. If you use icons in the chatbox they must be
50x50 hosted on your own server, and
unanimated. To use simply copy and paste the url into the email/url section. We also ask that you stick to your face claim to make it easier for members to identify you.
05. SIGNING UP
First read the rules, if you're reading this you must have figured that part out... Register with your characters
First & Last names in CAPITAL LETTERS. Middle names are not wanted, or needed, and we're not trying to sound rude it just makes it easier to navigate the forum when you don't get stuck on a really long name (IE- John Jakob-Jinglehiemer Smith) I'm sure with that example you can see how a middle name could be annoying. Follow the template in the application page to apply. These rules are just to keep things tidy. After your application is turned in, go to the face-claim page and try to find a face that you like. If you need help, one of our staff members will be happy to help you.
06. CHARACTERS
All right, for some of you, this is finally good news!
THERE IS NO CHARACTER LIMIT. Just don't bite off more than you can chew. Also, remember to check out our canon list, there are several characters left unclaimed (since we just started) and you are welcome to take a stab at stealing one, or more. We just ask that when activity checks roll around, if you do have an inactive character, you send a PM to BELLA CULLEN or EDWARD CULLEN and ask to have one removed. This is not required, but it could save your character from accidental deletion if you wish to keep them.
07. GRAPHICS
Sadly we regret to inform you that you cannot, and will not be permitted to use animated art or any form of art in your avatars and banners, a lot of artists have problems with their art being used without permission, and this can get us in trouble. Instead, we offer a
face-claim program here using real faces (be it yours or a celebrities) Each character is allowed one face, but you may change it later if you so desire, so long as nobody else is using it. There will be no double claims unless you are a twin.
Avatars must be 100x100 pixels, and Banners may not be larger than 500-200 pixels. Thank you.
08. ROLEPLAYING & O.O.C.
This set of rules is easy enough to understand:
Role play guidelines: Minimum post length=1 paragraph=4 sentences. God-Modding will not be tolerated, and for the love of everything holy please keep phrases such as "lol" or "omg" or anything else chat-speak out of role play posts. It will not be tolerated, and will earn you warnings, and possibly bans/deletion.
Chat speak is allowed only in general chat, or in the C-box. Please keep it out of role play posts, it's a huge "no-no".
09. POGO-STICK
I'm just going to outright assume that most of you have been involved in other role play forums that have a hidden word somewhere in the rules... Well congratulations! You just found yours. The hidden word, or possibly not so hidden word is
Pogo-Stick, so now you can finish up your application.
10. THE FORUM COMMANDMENT
I know there are a lot of horrible sounding rules and regulations here, but in the long haul I think you'll understand why they're here (if you don't all ready). However, rest assured knowing that the biggest rule here is the easy one:
HAVE FUN!!!
