+Accounts and Profiles: First and foremost let me talk to you about Characters and Accounts. For every registry (sign up) for the forum you will be given ONE character. Before you will be allowed access to the Roleplaying portion of the site you will have to fill out an Character Profile and post it in the Character Profiles forum under the New Profile Section. Then it will have to be accepted by one of the admin’s or mod’s and you will gain access to the rest of the site. Without doing this you will not be allowed entrance to the roleplaying area.
+A Note on Posting length: Please I know we aren’t always filled with BRILLIANT Posts, or even lengthy posts. But we at RM hope that all of our members can post at least 200 words per post. We are not super strict on this rule but 200 words is either a good sized paragraph or two paragraphs. And we can all do this. Being a moderate to advanced RP/CWG it is expected of our members to be LITERATE no chat speak in character (slang when speaking excluded). We also hate it when someone posts a twelve paragraph post that isn’t beneficial to the story. Don’t go overboard with pointless sentences that lead off on tangents that have nothing to with what’s going on.
+Rating: okay this is in concerns with content. We love graphic posts, we love thrilling posts, and yes even EPIC posts. However, this site will be a R rated. Some nudity, cursing, violence, and sexual content will be found in these forums. However, if you create a thread to simply have sex it will be deleted. We would like to keep sex within private messages only. But the small fondle here, kissing there, is okay. No Pornographic content may be posted in this forum(take it to private messages). Cursing of course is a must in situations however, if you just go off the rail with your character swearing every other word we will warn you and delete your post. Its senseless to have a character that does nothing but swear non-stop. You will only be warned twice for this.
+Races: In Character Races: Yes you can be pretty much anything you damn well please here. But we strive for originality, we like seeing what you can come up with. So if you come up with some strange new race simply describe a little about it as an end note on your profile (which every account must submit) Normally Akema and I will accept it, if there are any problems with it we will private message you and await your changes/compromises and we will work it out. Only rarely do we down right refuse a race. But remember this ALL HISTORICAL BACKGROUND ON ANY RACE FROM THE REAL WORLD WILL NOT SLIP INTO THIS. So NO FUCKIN DRACULA! Yes we may have vampires, however, they have a set of characteristics here in our world abide them. So before you apply for anything, it is wise to check out this thread.
The Legacy.
+Time Lines: okay you may post as much as you wish. You can have up to twenty threads, we don’t mind but please, please keep active in them. Everyone hates having to wait weeks on end for someone to finally respond to their posts so their character can move on in the story. So if you are going to be inactive for a time make sure you tell those on the threads you are in. Also we ask that you put up a timeline thread for you character in the Character Maintenance threads. Also no posting in the future. Every day on the site is another day in our world. You may post in the past though.
+Within posts I know it is tempting to use what other’s have posted already in your post. However please do not simply repeat everything someone else posted in your own post. Its like stating the obvious. Also DO NOT QUOTE ON THIS FORUM!!!! (if you click that damn quote button I will shoot you) It stretches the pages and also screws with the length of the thread and makes it more difficult for posting orders.
+If you wish to have a private thread with only certain people in it then post in the Thread Topic the name of that thread then tag in brackets followed by the names of those you wish access. EX: The Calm before the Storm [TAG] Akema. See not hard. This can come in handy to.
+Please spell check before posting, or do what I do, use Word or Microsoft Office or something that checks your grammar and spelling for you. We like literacy here. This isn’t a very strict rule just sort of a guide line.
+And of course for our favorite rule, NO GODMODING, POWERPLAYING, SPAMMING within roleplaying. You are not a god we can kill your character, and yes there are far worse things for your character than death (bwhahahah! O.O!) But no seriously if you are caught doing this more than twice you will be banned. If you don’t know what these things mean then here is a brief description. God moding=all powerful no weaknesses no faults. Powerplaying= knowing something in character that you shouldn’t like what another character thinks about your character even though they haven’t said or shown it. Even if you are a telepath you cannot read someone’s thoughts just because you will have to gain access to their mind, and then THEIR! CHARACTER! Will allow you to hear what they are thinking. Spamming = random bullshit posted over and over and over and over and over and over again. NO! Thank you.
