OUT OF CHARACTER
0.1 Be Respectful of EVERYONE If you have a problem with anyone, please go to staff and don’t confront them. That is why the staff is here. Simply ignore them and move on with what you are doing.
0.2 PG-13 PB rules say that we must keep this rating, if this rule is broken, you, and by extension the entire site, has a risk of being banned. Please save us all the trouble and don’t do it.
0.3 Confidential Materials We don’t need to know your actual name, where you live, your name, or anything else like that. Your parents have probably said it a thousand times and I’m going to say it again: keep it to yourself. Niether I nor any of the staff can be held responsible if you chose to freely hand out your information and some creepy person finds you.
0.4 Graphics This includes avatars, signatures etc.
Signatures may not exceed 500 pixels by 300 pixels
Avatars may not exceed 100 pixels by 200 pixels
Graphics may not exceed a 500 pixel width
The staff will remove any graphic that stretch the page or are bigger than the above rules, no exceptions.
0.5 Chat-speak The usual things like ‘brb’ and ‘lol’ are fine. If u strt tlkin like dis people have every right to ignore everything you say.CHAT BOX
1.1 Bullying THIS WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT BE TOLERATED. If you are caught doing this you WILL be warned twice. If the problem continues after having been warned your account will be deleted. No exceptions. We will keep track of these warnings and they will not go away.
1.2 Chat-speak Again the usual things will be accepted, however, if you make it a habit of taking in ‘chat-speak’ you will likely be temporarily be banned from the C-Box. No one wants to try to constantly figure out what you are saying, especially when there are those of us who can’t text and don’t know what half of that means.IN CHARACTER
2.1 God-modding, Bunnying, Power-playing We don’t have god characters, and even gods aren’t perfect: no perfect characters. No controlling someone else’s character. No making another character look weak.
2.2 Post Length As this is a literate site, posts are expected to be at least 250 words. It isn’t that hard to do, but we do understand the occasional off-day where you can’t really write much and someone is hounding you to post. One line posts are never accepted though.
2.3 Literacy Again, this is a literate site, so spell check is your friend. Do not post any IC post with chat-speak as it will be deleted on sight. If you are a grammar follower, be my guest and follow it. We are not going to go through with a fine tooth comb and make sure it is perfect.
2.4 Sex Chill out, it happens…..but we don’t want, or need to know the details. Just fade out before it happens and came back after it’s over. Writing out an entire sex scene is in violation of the PG-13 rule.
2.5 Double-posting Do not post twice in a row, let someone else post before you post again. It looks better and gives you something to write to and makes things more interesting.
2.6 Keep your Order If you are threading with a group, try to come up with a post order. Keep to that order and do not skip anyone unless they tell you to.
