» the rules

I'm sure majority of you will join this site having known majority of the rules, but even still, they're a necessity--so, please, please, read them.

» There is a word-count of 300 words. This is a literate/advanced site, and 300 words isn't that much. Make sure you give your partner enough to reply to! If you have trouble getting enough words, feel free to ask other players for help in getting the length up.

» Keep it PG-13. We understand that mature things do indeed happen, but we are on a Proboards host, and proboards ToS states that all content must have a PG-13 rating. So, this means that all sex and sexual activities should be blacked out when they get to a certain stage and not explicit or graphic. All drug usage should also not be explicitly described, it is fine as long as it is kept vague. Anything you would see in a PG-13 movie is allowed, but the R rated content must be cut or faded out.

» Be respectful. Honestly, just treat others how you wish to be treated. No one likes to be disrespected--so don't do it. All arguments should be kept off of the site or to PM, not in the chats or in the boards where anyone can see. If there is a conflict that cannot be resolved, PM an Admin to help sort it out peacefully. We are a family here, or at least good friends, and as such all members should be treated with respect. And just because you have a problem with another player, does not mean the characters should follow in that bias and bash the other's character.

» All images must not exceed 600x350 pixels. This keeps the board from stretching unattractively, so please follow it! Tables can be longer, though please keep the width at 550px or less.

» Avatars must not exceed 150x230 pixels. I find that's a rather fetching size, no?

» Face claims. Our only rule involving face claims is no site models. Basically what this means is that all face claims must be actors/actresses, models with a contract, singers, or the like. None of those that are famous through being on facebook, myspace, tumblr, etc.

» Your account will be deleted after three weeks unexplained of inactivity. It makes sense, no? If you're going to be away for even a week, it's expected that you should post in the Away board. Random disappearances are no fun.

»Power-playing, God-Modding, etc is not allowed. Standard rules here, guys.

» Your app must be accepted, in order to roleplay. Just in-case changes must be made, it makes more sense.

» Vampires under 18 must be in school. They are considered fledglings at this point and are unable to leave the school until they are deemed properly educated, no exceptions.

» If you have a character plot idea, great! However, if this character plot idea affects a large amount of other characters, or may possibly affect the plot, you must clear it with an admin first. This includes death of other characters, pregnancies (though those shouldn't happen cause fledglings can't get pregnant), or huge medical issues. We reserve the right to ask you not to do it for the good of the site.

» Apps have a time limit of 10 days. We don’t want tons of thread piling up that aren’t done, right? You are free to ask us to move it back afterwards. If we ask for edits, once again you get ten more days for those.
