Character Sheet Rules

ONE You must be approved before doing anything else on this board.
- You are welcome to post in the OOC board & such.

TWO You may only play one character.
- If we catch you playing two, you will be warned and the second one deleted.
- Two characters is a privilage, NOT a right. If you are active, we may grant you with the choice of a second character.

THREE The better your application, the easier it will be to get approved.

IC Rules
IC: In Character.

ONE We discourage playing out a character with any mental, physical, or emotional medical conditions. Meaning, disorders or abusive families, friends, ect. It may bother another member and is frowned upon.

TWO No God-modding.
- What is God-modding? God-modding is when you control the actions of the other character without permission.
- Example: If you were to push someone down and say they fell to the floor, that is god-modding. You must simply push someone, but it is their choice if they fall or simply stumble.

THREE No killing other characters.
- This is a form of god-modding.
- This will not be allowed unless the plot requires some form of 'killing'.

FOUR No large text, bolding dialouge, colors or smileys in the RP sections.
- All posts must be AT LEAST two paragraphs long.

FIVE You are not allowed to have the name of an actual animated or real person. I.e: Johnny Depp; Zim; Dib; Naruto Uzumaki; ect.

SIX No threads asking for friends or stating that your character is bored.
- Most people do not wish to RP with someone who is bored, as that may result in poorer posts.

SEVEN You're allowed to be in four threads at once.
- If you leave a thread, please put 'out' in some form of parenthesis.

EIGHT OOC comments/conversations in the IC sections aren't allowed.
- You may post little comments that you'll be away for a certain amount of time. Make sure all comments are in [, ], (, ).
