Rules:
These are rules to help keep the boards clean, family friendly, and fun.
Rule Number One: You shalt not disrespect other members of the board. This includes offesnsive terms, threats, pity posts (because no one wants to read those), and anything that seriously offends another member. If you are offended by what a member said to you, post in the complaints forum, but be direct, polite, and most of all respectful, in your complaint.
If you feel offened, PM either me, Taurus9109, or FFx2132.
Grammar: Please try to use correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. There is a spell check on the site to help.
OOC & BIC:
ooc: out of character
bic: back in character
When talking Out of Character, please, please, use OOC.
Try not to use OOC to much, its spam, and quite annoying to some roleplayers.
Signatures (Siggys): I'm not the biggest fan of large signatures. See, your signature is posted everytime you post, some people have slow connections. Let's say you post 10 times on a page, then your large signature will have to load 10 times.
You can have up to 4 blinkies,or a medium sized image. There won't be Candybar Doll siggies here. I find them too big for my liking. If your signature is to big, I will ask you to remove it, or resize it.
Powerplaying: No powerplaying (roleplaying a character that isnt yours) Teachers and Admins may though, or unless you have permission from the roleplayer.
Mary-Sues: I can not explain how anoyying Mary-Sues get. What is a Mary-sue you ask? It's a character that lives a perfect life, lives in a perfect home, has the perfect boyfriend, is perfectly popular. This is Heartland, a small town with poor schools. If your character was so perfect, they wouldn't attend a small run-down school like West Point. I don't have a problem with characters living in the "Rich Hills" (Heartland's richest live there) But it become a problem when every character lives there in a big fancy mansion. Ahh.. I dont know how to put everything else... READ ABOUT MARY-SUES HERE
See if your character is a Mary Sue/Gary Stu HERE
S.P.A.M./ Non-sense posting: SPAM stand for Stupid Pointless Anoyying Message. I can't stand it. I DO NOT want to see alot of "OOC" in roleplay... like just "ooc: lol" in one post, Off topic discussions are held in General Chat. Non-sense posts WILL be deleted, just save the admins time and dont spam.
Display Names: If you sign up with a screen name like "LOTRfreak180" you MUST change your display name to you're characters name. You can change it my editing your profile. The only people who do not have the display names changed are the Admins: Lightning9292, Taurus9109, and FFx2132
Double Posting: There will be NO double posting.
