[/li][/ul]our laws
- Cursing is allowed: you are certainly allowed to curse, both in and out of character. IC, you can go crazy and have your character drop the f-bomb every other word in dialogue - remember, it's your character, and they can say whatever they want, but your writing has to be beautiful. However, OOC, please do not say hurtful or insulting things to other members. We don't want this to turn into a high school, with cliques and bullies.
- Sexual content is not allowed: it is against the Proboards Terms of Service and we really just don't want our board removed.
- Signatures/Avatars: Your avatar may be 100px by 250px maximum. Please either make your signature all text or, if it is an image, please no bigger than 450px by 150px. This will keep the distance between posts small, keep the page from taking forever to load, and keep the page from stretching. If your signature is too large, you will be sent a warning PM, and eventually it will have to be removed. Small banners for clubs or organizations created in-site are allowed in addition to your signature image. No profanity in any of your graphics, either - this includes nudity and sexual acts.
- Please no advertising: anywhere other than the advertising board. Advertising is not allowed in the CBOX, or in any of the chat or RPing boards. There is a board specifically for it, so please stick to it.
- Please no spamming: everybody knows that spamming is annoying, disliked, and has no point to it. Just please don't do it.
- Posts have a word minimum: your IC posts must be at least 300 words. It's not that hard to write all that much, even if you have a lack of muse, and you have to at least show an effort. Okay, so you won't be destroyed if your posts turn out to be only 299 words, but at least try. Also, don't let 200 words of that be dialogue! Try and get some actions in there, too! It makes responding to much easier for those you are roleplaying with.
- One account per character: in order to make the roleplaying process more smooth and less confusing, with each character you make, you must create a more account. This makes it more fun to make graphics for your character, as well!
- New threads must be properly tagged! We want everything to look nice and uniform, so please: If you have an open thread, tag it with [Open]. If your thread is private, tag it with [Private], or with the name of the character you are roleplaying with (ex, Riko made a roleplay for her and my character, so she tagged it [Kana]). If your roleplay is closed, again, tag it as such. These 'tags' should go before the actual title, so they will look like [Open] Title Here. This just keeps the forum looking nice!
- Stay active: If you don't log in or post for over two weeks, your account may be deleted unless you give prior notice.
