The Rules
« Thread Started on May 18, 2008, 10:33am »

General:

1. Please, nor arguing. Debating is fine, but when it comes to calling each other names and stuff like that, I will butt in.
2. I’m fine with swearing at a minimum, as I am quite a potty mouth myself, but I won’t tolerate swearing AT people. You know what I mean by this.
3. Spam and all that stuff will be deleted immediately. This mainly involves people just posting a lot of gibberish.
4. I do NOT want any mature rated stuff. Why? Because, I want to look around my own site, read all the threads and stuff like that, and I have a tenacity to faint, and stuff like that makes me faint, or feel funny or sometimes vomit. This may not seem fair, but really, it isn’t that hard not to post stuff life that.
5. If you are sexist or racist or anything like that, you will be banned. Its fine if you’re like that in character, but not out of.
6. This is another of my “unfair” rules. If you insult animals, say we’re “superior” to them, or anything like that, I will ban you. This is for your own safety since I explode against people like that and I can’t ban myself.
7. No ‘gangs.’ This means that everyone is welcome in the conversation. If I see certain members picking on another one, they will be warned and their karma will go down.
8. Your characters MUST be accepted before you RP. I will lock any threads you start until your character is accepted.
9. Have fun! I mean this, really. I will FORCE you to have fun! *Evil laugh* Okay, I can’t do that, but whatever. Feel free to joke around. Be sarcastic! Kid around! It’s what makes RPing great!

RPing:

-No godmodding. This means controlling other people’s characters. If this happens, I will modify that post without telling you beforehand. (I will PM you saying I modified it, though.)
-No powerplaying. This really gets on my nerves. NO ONE likes “all powerful” characters that can do anything and never get hurt. So no making “that fastest” horse or stuff like this.
-No perfect people or horses, they all have flaws. Your character must have at least three flaws in their personality. If not, they will not be accepted.
-Do NOT copy other people’s character.
-In your posts, don’t talk about how beautiful or wonderful your character is.
-Don’t have your character read other characters’ minds.

Example:

Sarah: Sarah wanted so much for Fred to say she was beautiful.
Fred: “You’re beautiful,” Fred said.

-Do not pressure members to have them do certain things. This means saying stuff like, “I wish my character could have a boyfriend.” Why? It’s annoying and it bugs the heck out of me.
-Posts must be around 100 words long or longer, and I mean it.
-If you don’t capitalize and punctuate properly, your posts will be deleted.
-Only one human per account.
-You can kill your own character without having to ask permission at all. But you can only kill other characters if you agree and they agree. Also, you must BOTH PM me and tell me what you’re going to do.
-The password to character creation is birdboy47
-Please post in third person.
-No fantasy horses with wings and stuff like that.
-You cannot play the horse of another character, not can you just play a horse. You have to play a human. It just makes everything easier.
-It is eternally summer, so your people won’t have to go to school.
