site rules

[RYNSTONE ★]

the rules The staff reserve the right to change these rules at any point. You will be notified of any alterations via PM. PLEASE POST HERE VERIFYING THAT YOU READ THE RULES. THIS MUST BE DONE ONCE PER CHARACTER. Thanks. general && out of character rules HAVE FUN | This is not a job or anything like that. This is supposed to be fun! Don't let it become a consuming thing! Keep it fun! KEEP THE SITE POSITIVE | Like the above rule, this is supposed to be fun! To keep it fun for everyone we need to do our best to keep the site a positive experience for everyone! If you have complaints, suggestions, or anything like that, please PM a staff member and we will discuss it! NO CHAT SPEAK | We use the English language here. By English I mean no 1337, no chat speak like "wer r u?" and no foreign languages (unless it's translated). We understand typos and all that! But don't get overboard! NO SPAMMING | That means no one word posts, no double posting, and all that.  NO ADVERTISING | There is a designated board for advertising other sites. That means that the CBox, other boards, and PMs are an inappropriate place to advertise. NO FLAMMING | If you have a problem with another member, contact staff immediately. There is no excuse for public arguments and fighting. Please keep it to the bare minimum. AVOID TOUCHY SUBJECTS | Sure, talking politics and religion is all well and good until someone gets offended. There are plenty of other things you can talk about! Just try and avoid anything that is generally offensive. MAKING SUGGESTIONS | The Staff here at REVENGE IS SWEETER is always excited to hear out suggestions and cater to our members. Please make these suggestions in the designated board or via PM to a staff member. If you make it in the CBox we may miss it and we don't want that! IMAGES AND GRAPHICS | This minimum age here is thirteen. Keep all graphics PG. PG-13 Will be allowed as long as there is nothing too...naked...or bloody...Just be reasonable. :] Please don't stretch the page either. That's no bueno. CHARACTER CONTINUITY | Just because a player knows something, be it because it happened to another one of their characters or because they read in in a character's thoughts, that doesn't mean the character knows it. Please keep in mind that your characters DO NOT share a brain and won't know all the same things. application && in character rules ONLY ONE CHARACTER PER ACCOUNT | Yes, even twins. I KNOW! I'm so unfair! ;] YOU MUST HAVE AN ACCOUNT TO CREATE A PROFILE | No posting up of a profile as a guest and then not doing anything with it. A CHARACTER MUST BE ACCEPTED  BEFORE ANY IN CHARACTER POST | That includes in the chatter below AND in games. As well as in the boards. It will cut back on confusion in the long run. NO CHARACTER LIMIT | Of course, if you can't handle it, please try not to go overboard. If at any point you do make too many, the activity check might be a good time to have some conveniently go inactive.  NO WORD MINIMUM FOR POSTING | But please be aware that other people have a hard time replying to a one liner. Just be nice. :] RULES ABOUT POWERS | All powers must be claimed in the appropriate board. There are rules inside the board regarding different powers and how they can be used. ROUNDED CHARACTERS | We understand that after the character creation process is complete, you may find that the character plays out differently than you imagined. This is FINE! Just update your app to reflect the character's new personality. We don't want an app to read like a girl is the bitch queen supreme, but that she is actually nice! It just wouldn't make any sense. THERE ARE NO PERFECT PEOPLE | This applies to both applications and role play. In applications, we expect character flaws and power flaws. Make sure to mention these. In posting, there is only so much miraculous dodging and random, well-hidden knives a person can have before it is just ridiculous. Keep in mind that staff can intervene at any point if it is unfair. MUST GET ADMIN APPROVAL FOR LIFE ALTERING CHANGES | Including but not completely limited to pregnancy, random drug addiction not previously in the application, and anything else life changing. DANGER AND DYING | Okay, so normally you would want to get the 'OK' from everyone involved when it comes to character death. But there is a limit to how much danger you can put a person into a expect them to come out completely unscathed. Keep this in mind please. You won't ALWAYS survive that run in with a peace keeper, especially if it's a weekly date. INTO THE GAMES | This is a Hunger Games RP. If you accept the status of TRIBUTE keep in mind that your character is subject to death. There can be only one victor and there is a 95.8% chance that you won't be it.  PENDING APPLICATIONS | If your app is set to 'PENDING' by a staff member, you have one week to make the requested changes. After that it will be 'DENIED' and you will be asked to start again from scratch.  PROFILE MAINTENANCE | To be accepted your account display name must be changed to your character's full name in all caps. You must also have both a 200x200 avatar and a 200x300 hover image. If you need help with images please contact a staff member. BACKBURNER CHARACTERS | We understand that sometimes you may lose muse for a character for a while, but you may not want to lose all of their files completely in case you want to bring them back. This is why we have a group called 'on the backburner'. Your claims for that character will be opened, but bringing them back once your muse returns is an easy process, just talk to a staff member if you want to put someone in this group or take them out of it! FADE TO BLACK | ProBoards has a Terms of Service that we all agree to be making an account. That means nothing too sexy and nothing too terrible gory and terrible. If you really must, take it to PM or instant messaging. None of that were little eyes can see it, please! OOC CHAT IN A POST | Totally fine as long as you make it obvious that you are no longer in character.
