1. Please respect every member of the forum – this is the big one. (If you find yourself in a disagreement or something of the sort with another member, please sort things out maturely, or come to a member of staff, and we’ll gladly help resolve the matter.)
2. No God-Modding. For those of you who might not know, God-Modding is when you control a character who is not your own, either verbally or physically. So, for example, this would be God-Modding: ‘Person A threw a punch at person B, and person B fell to the ground.’ See what person A did wrong there? It’s person B’s choice to decide the reaction to person A’s attack. (Also…please remember, no character is perfect! Let’s see those flaws!)
3. Please write to the best of your ability – I’m not talking about length of posts here, (although more than one line in posts would be preferred!) I’m talking about spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. If you genuinely struggle with this sort of thing, however, we’re not going to get all fussy about it – we will respect that you have difficulty and help you wherever we can.
4. Posts must be written in third person, past tense. So, for example: ‘Tamora walked over to the chair and sat down.’ That is third person, past tense. If you have any confusion about how to write your posts, feel free to come to a member of staff, and we’ll help you.
5. Each person, including the staff, for fairness, will be allowed up to 10 characters. Each character must have a separate account, but can be put on the same email! (That’s how ProBoards works.) If people have a problem with the 10 character limit, feel free to discuss it with me.
6. Please keep swearing to a minimum – there will be younger members on the board! (This includes God/Jesus related swear words.)
7. Roleplaying your pairings, or discovering new ones, is perfectly fine, but just make sure the other party is ok with this before you try and do it! (Just no scenes of a sexual nature please – younger members! Plus, it’s against the ProBoards rules and could get us shut down!)
8. Regarding children of your pairings, this is still being considered, due to the setting of the roleplay – it isn’t exactly the best place for expecting parents. But, that said, we haven’t ruled it out – it just depends on what you guys want to do.
9. In terms of allowed characters, you are allowed any cartoon character, from movies or TV shows. Not all characters may be suitable, and we will notify you if there’s any issue with your claims, but otherwise, go wild! Also, if you have any OC’s, they are permitted too. (Just remember, no character should be all powerful and flawless – it’s not fair on other people!)
10. Also for fairness, your characters will no longer have any armour/weaponry/special powers that they normally possess. So, for example, Tamora won't have her armour or her gun. Rainbow Dash would still have her wings, but she wouldn't be able to use them. (The same would apply to Twilight Sparkle and her horn - she would still have it but wouldn't be able to use it.) Basic weaponry, such as knives, spears, staffs, etc. will be provided by the ruler, as well as constant medical supplies (she wants them to stay alive as long as possible for more entertainment).
11. Robotic characters must have a human form, again, for fairness.
Have fun! I may edit these rules, and I will notify you if I do – be sure to check them out if you see a notice in the announcements thread about it!
