PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING.
1. No more then six characters per person for the time being. A lot of people aren't even active with some of their characters, if you would like to ask me about this, please PM me. We do make exceptions to the rule, if you need another for a plotline or really think you can handle more then that..
2. Banners must NOT stretch the page. If they do, we will ask you to resize them, if you don't it will be deleted.
3. When posting in a roleplay, we would like you to have atleast five sentences per post. We want to avoid oneliners as much as possible, there is never any way to reply to them.
4. Drama is fine, as long as it is kept at a PG-13 level. What we mean is, please don't have your character's mother die, her boyfriend break-up with her, find out she's pregnant, try to kill her brother, and jump off the clock tower ALL IN ONE DAY. It's fine to have an ongoing plotline, just don't make it too over the top.
5. You must be fairly active. We understand that you can't always make it on or don't always have time or are just not in the mood to roleplay. But if you have an inactive character that has showed a significant lack of rping for some time, then doesn't show up for more then one month, they will be deleted. If we made a mistake by deleting someone, don't worry, you can rejoin and we'll sort you into your old position.
6. You MUST follow the normal roleplaying rules. ABSOLUTLY NO Godmodeling, despise, or any other annoyance.
*example of GM: Anakin tried to strangle Vera but she was too strong for him. She whipped him around her and killed him with one strong pull.
* example of Despise: She was the most beautiful at school. She was very popular, everyone liked her. She was the smartest in classes and had no flaws.
7. You must be in third person when roleplaying.
* example of first person: I walked through the corridors, noticing every detail. I was there to make sure that no student was out of bed.
*example of thrid person: Cornell walked through the corridors, noticing every detail. She was there to make sure that no student was out of bed.
8. No vampires, werewolves, mermaids, etc. None of that stuff goes on in a high school, so it will NOT be going on in mine!
9. Once you are approved, you may begin to roleplay and develop your characters.
10. When you're roleplaying, it's very easy to get lost in your character--- especially if the character is named after you. One common thing that happens is that people tend to confuse themselves with their character. Sounds silly, but it happens! Please remember that when another character is being cruel to/insulting your character, you must NOT take it personally. It's just an even in the plot. Password for the character application section is lemons. Most of the time, the person driving the character doesn't think of it as someone bashing you but as an author writing about a character bashing another character. "It's not you, I hate. It's not your character I hate. It's my character that hates your character." Don't feel bad if it you do feel hurt the first time your character is berated. It happens. RPG can be very intense and involving.
Playing on this School site, there are some other basic rules you need to follow by.
If you are more then one character:
When you make more then one characters you will have to have more then one account. Only ONE character is aloud per account. It makes it less confusing. If you have more then one character, you need to make sure they are ALL active, not just one. You can only roleplay that character, on that characters account.
Problems with other roleplayers:
If you have a problem with any of the roleplayers that are on the board PM the admin ASAP. We will do our best to figure out what we can do about it and have a conversation with that person. Do NOT come complaining to me if a person character is being mean to yours or wont date them. None of that will be dealt with. I only want to hear about serious problems. No yelling or cussing out people in the cbox or on the OOC boards. Characters are aloud to but not the roleplayer if i found out about it, I might just give you a warning or I might suspend you. I don't want fighting on this board. If I see consisted fighting between two people. Both accounts will be suspened, even if you have more then one account.
