Rules, rules, rules...

[Tabitha Mercer]

Okay, so these shouldn't be necessary, but everyone knows that bad stuff happens without them. So, here we are.

1. Be nice. It's a broad thing to say, isn't it? Respect other players, keep any disagreements to Private Messages and out of the C-box. If you happen to have a serious issue you would like to press, then please confront the person first; if the issue cannot be resolved peacefully, I will listen to both sides and deliver a verdict on what should be done.

2. We are PG-13. I think we all know what that means, right? No adult scenes with more than simple kissing or hand-holding. We understand that teenagers snog in broom closets, however, if it appears to be getting too heavy, an admin will PM both participants with a warning. If the warning is not heeded, both parties will be temporarily banned. Cursing is to be kept to reasonable levels, no dropping the f-bomb every other word, but we understand that young people do curse.

3. Admin word is law. I know that sounds harsh, but we didn't make this exclusively for you. If you have an issue with something we've said, or a rule presented here, please PM an admin with your complaint and we will address it as soon as we can.

4. Please keep graphics respectable. If an admin feels your graphic shows too much skin, you will be PMed and the image will be taken down. All important bits should be covered. We would prefer that men remain with their shirt on except in the case of Mermen, who don't wear shirts at all.

5. Signatures are to be no bigger than 500x300 pixels. If your signature is larger than that, you will be messaged and the image will be removed.

6. No God Modding. That means no perfect characters. Everybody's got flaws, that's what makes them so fun to play. No dictating what someone else's character says or does without that person's permission. You aren't the boss of all the characters, just your own.

7. 75 words for students, 100 for adults. That should be fairly easy to reach. Student characters must only reach 75 words per in-character post, and adults must reach 100. If we encounter a post that does not meet these standards, we will notify the writer as ask that it be fixed. Players are allowed three warnings before a temporary ban will be placed.

8. If it looks wrong, smells wrong, and/or tastes wrong: then it's wrong. If you are unsure about whether or not something is allowed, please PM an admin and they will clarify things. But, as a general rule: if it doesn't feel right, then it's probably wrong.

9. Three character limit. Well...it's not much of a limit, per-se. You are allowed to have more characters, but we ask that you PM an admin before creating your fourth and beyond characters. Those first three, however, can be made as soon as you like.

10. And lastly, but certainly not least, have fun! Use your wild imagination and be whoever you want to be!
