The DON’Ts of Role-play:
First and foremost, NO GODMODING OR POWER-PLAYING. This means you can NOT be all-powerful, all-knowing, or anything else that fits in this category. This also means that you cannot post what another’s character is going to do, you alone have control of your OWN character. You cannot kill others’ characters without their consent. DO NOT attempt anything with your character that they cannot physically accomplish.
Secondly, NO EXPLICIT PORN!! If anything, I’d like to keep this board rated R, as in yes, you can do some things, just not in drastic detail, ok? There are many members of various ages who might have parents that like to snoop around their computer. Let’s do them a favor and not get them in trouble for this. Repeat: R-rated.
Thirdly, DO NOT BE A JERK. So you may be a jerk in real life, but please not on the board. Even if your character’s a jerk doesn’t mean you have to be. When OOC be courteous to all members at ALL times, no exceptions.
Fourth, NO CYBER SPEAK. I can not stress this enough. I believe that if you joined a role-playing board that you must have some experience in using English, so please do. Failure to abide by this rule will lead to the termination of your account.
Fifth, YOU MAY RP ON MORE THEN BOARD AS LONG AS:. You keep up with all of your roleplays, the separate roleplays DO NOT mess with the plot, the people you're roleplaying with don't have to track you down and kill you to update! This privelage will be removed if we see too much conflict.
Sixth, NO POP-UPS. Meaning, if someone posts that they want to be alone...or their situation seems to lead this way, ask them first if you can join before "popping" your character into their RP.
Seventh, NO DELIBERATE SLANDERING/HARASSING of another person or character without reason or cause. (Joining for that reason, or joining just to be a pervert, will cost you a warning from the Staff and on the second warning you're out!) If you have a problem please PM the Staff and we will look into it.
Eighth, ADULT CONTENT AND LANGUAGE ALLOWED. Of course when we say this, we do not mean use it every other word. If we see evidence of this you will be warned.
Ninth, PLEASE use the character form when making your CHARACTER PROFILE so that it’s easy to read. =3. Also please do not create any Mary-Sue's, or Bobby-Bill Characters (characters with no reason, background, hyperactive-sexual intent, description, or constantly moping around just for the sake of having a character to annoy, perverts or otherwise bother other members). These are your creations, have fun with them ^^.
Tenth, STAFF RESOLUTIONS ARE FINAL. Complaining or arguing about it will only make things worse and you look stupid. We will look at it from two different angles to make it fair. All judgments are final! We know that you might not like the final choice or have problems, but don't go on arguing or making a scene it will only make things worse and probably get you banned.
Eleventh, all characters and text on this site are COPYRIGHT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE CREATORS, unless other wise stated. No content can be used on this site for the means of any other medium unless the originator gives permission!
Twelfth, when there is more then two people posting, please allow some time in between for everyone to catch up. Maybe if possible TAKE TURNS as sometimes some people type faster then others, and we don't want anyone left behind now do we?
Thirteenth, SPAM in all forms will NOT BE TOLERATED. This includes one-liners, and sentences that have no detail whatsoever. How do you expect anyone to get what’s going on if the posts are so extremely short? Point is, you can’t. DO NOT SPAM.
Fourteenth, treat ALL members with RESPECT. This includes the Staff and all members. If you have a problem, resolve it anywhere else but on the board. If you still can't resolve it between you two, then contact a Staff member and we will try to help. Anyone found insulting, slandering or being mistreating to any member of this board, without intent of it being IC will be dealt with accordingly.
Fifteenth, this is a board for original characters only. I know you guys are creative and have some cool characters you'd like to use here. I should have specified this earlier, but I don't want to see any DBZ Saiyans, Sailor Senshi, etc, (basically no blatant anime characters or spin offs of them please). I'm sorry, but this just isn't the board for them.
Added Rules:
1. Forum roleplay ALWAYS has an order as it keeps things organized and confusion to a minimum. At the start of a thread the create should probably create a PO, or post order, so everyone knows the order. If you are ever confused don't hesistate to ask someone who's turn it is. :3

Things to Follow:
Role-play Content
Do not start any major RP storylines without permission from us first. It may conflict with a storyline we already have in place. However, do not hesitate to contact us with ideas. This is your role-play as much as ours; we need your input and ideas to keep it going. If your idea won't work at the moment, chances are it will work at some point later on, or we can incorporate it somehow.
Role-play Conduct
No flaming. Ever. If you have a problem with someone on the list, settle it privately. If you cannot settle it privately, bring it to one of us and we will do our best to settle it for you only if you have tried every possible way to settle it yourself and still failed. We are not your mother, so don't come crying to us because little Johnny's pharaoh got robbed by James’s thief. If the problem is genuine, and we cannot do anything, one or both parties may be asked to leave. We would rather not do this, so please don't let disagreements get out of hand.
Common Sense
Use your common sense at all times and I’m sure you’ll do fine around the boards. Of course, by common sense I mean reading the rules and following them. If you can achieve this then you will have much fun.
