General
- First and foremost, respect all staff members and their decisions. They will be made fairly with no bias intakes. If you feel a decision has been ill-treated or misunderstood then a conference can be set up between you and the staff.
- There is to be no racism, religious talk and the alike in OOC. Nor is it to be Incorporated in a RP if it is directed at the player of the character. Bullying WILL NOT be tolerated here and strict punishment will be set in place.
- No fighting will be tolerated. I, and I'm sure many others, respect people who can act mature and act like the bigger person. Keep your anger in check and speak things out without referring to issues like a caveman.
- NO links with content promoting the use of illegal drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, mlm, pyramid schemes, or promote any illegal activity.
- Everyone MUST speak in English. Some quotes may be used in other languages though a translation must be submitted as well. You may not swear or break any of the above rules in other languages.
General Role-play
- All posts must be a minimum of 150 words long. Even if you have a mind black that should be reachable (This does not include starter/ending lyrics)
- Swearing is allowed though keep it to a minimum
- Do not create completely colored posts. They do tend to hurt the eyes
- When speaking make sure you put the words into speech brackets and either bold or color the words. eg. "Hello" "Hi"
- Please spell check your posts and make sure to check your grammar. It makes it easier to understand.
- Don't put lyrics between each line or paragraph, it tends to be quite annoying though you may use a few lines at the start and end of your post

- All avatars are to be 100x100
- Your name does not have to be that of your characters though there is to be no profanity within it. Please don't alter it too much if you change it, let people be able to recognize you almost instantly.
