THE GUIDELINES
GENERAL.
CHARACTERS.
ROLEPLAY.
GENERAL.
ACTIVITY.
- A few posts per week is the standard, more is appreciated
- Unexplained one-week absenses results in character being written off
- Two week explained absenses are allowed, but nothing more than that. From here we suggest loaning someone your character for the duration of your absense, unless specific plotting reasons don't require their involvement.
- You are able to re-claim that character upon your return
ADVERTISEMENTS.
- One thread in adverts section allowed
- Only established members may PM Advertise (once)
- In PM Adverts, no posting ads!'
CHARACTERS.
APPLICATION.
- Well structured, thought out character application fleshing out the chosen character
- For original applications, much more attention to detail is required before they can be accepted. You must prove why they are relevant to this site. Therefore it is easier to have Canon characters accepted.
- In order to be approved, you are required to have the acceptance of two staff members.
CHARACTER LIMITS.
- There is no character limit; however, if the staff see that a character is becoming inactive, we will not hesitate to address the situation. We will not let a member keep a face that someone may possibly want if the character is not active. It isn't fair to other people.
- Avoid having multiple characters of the same species. Avoid having two vampires, or two werewolves. The only exception to this is humans as they are regular.
- In order to have a second character, your primary account must have 25 posts. For a third, your primary account must have 50 posts and your secondary 25. For a fourth character, your primary account must have 100 posts, your secondary account 50 and your third account 25. Anything past four characters, we expect that you are established with all of your characters and have well past the number of posts above for all our accounts.
ROLEPLAY.
LITERACY.
- No formal word count
- Longer replies are expected (give the roleplay buddy something to work with)
- See the 'Roleplay Tips.'
POWER PLAY.
- No character is superior to others
