[/font]let’s just get this over with…
in c h a r a c t e r ;;[/font]
- when first registering, please change your name to your character's first, middle, and last name in lower case
[/li][li]i hate characters not having middle names, but i guess it's not mandatory you just won't be on my good list
[/li][li]Do not roleplay until your character has been accepted. This includes IM threads, character plottage, anything. Do feel free to post in the c-box or in any out of character threads, though.
[/li][li]One-liners = bad. I ask that your posts be at least 300 words. I understand everyone has off days, but if you’re so off that you can't muster that much up, than just post in the c-box or somewhere that your muse is off and you'll post whenever it comes back to you. And a paragraph is not 3 sentences people, they should be more like 6 or 7 sentences at least, full sentences also. Those little1-3 word sentences don't count.
[/li][li]Only use chat speak in the IM or cell (texting) boards. Anywhere else, your posts must be typed out correctly (*cough*spellcheck*cough*) in third person (he, she, they, them, etc.) and past tense.
[/li][li]No god-moding. If you god-mode or power play I will come after you with a pitchfork. Seriously.
[/li][li]Sex, drug use, alcohol use, cussing -- this is all to be expected, this is a mature site. I do ask, however, that if you are going to have adult content in a thread please indicate so in the title. If it comes up unexpectedly, the thread starter can go back and change the title.
[/li][li]Make your claims. Celebrity/play by claims are a must. If you don’t claim them then anyone can use what you are and you might have to change yours. Also, the celeb/pb claim, it has to be a real person, not a drawing or something like that, and it would be nice if you checked out the canon character list and made sure that you weren't taking one of those pb's. Other sorts of claims (IM, Myspace, etc.) are optional and just there for your convenience, though making a room claim would be a smart idea.
[/li][li]Not everyone is homosexual/bisexual. Please remember that, not every single person in this city is going to be bi or gay. I realize that this is a common fad amongst people, and I don't mind a few here or there, but let's not abandon the straight people on this site please!
[/li][li]If you say something out of character in a role play thread, please indicate so by using some form of brackets ( (), [], etc.)
[/li][li]You must join as one of the species from the species list. There are no mixed species, if your parents are of different species, you are either one or the other. Not a mix.
[/li][li]Humans should make up the lowest percentage of all the species.
[/li][li]We do need teachers also
[/li][li]Execution Squad members are canon only.

- No out of character fighting. Even if your characters hate each other, keep the drama strictly IC. The c-box and non-roleplay boards are not for internet drama. If there is a problem, sort it through PM or let an admin know.
- Cussing in non-roleplay boards or the c-box is okay as long as you don't make yourself sound like an uneducated hick by saying "Eff this, eff that," every other word.
- Only advertise in the advertising section. Anywhere else it will be deleted, including signatures.
- The secret word in the application is why so serious?

- Heather is always right, and doesn't like it when people be mean to anyone or her, so if she see's you breaking any rules (or not thinking she's right), you'll have a fork stuck in your eye.
- If you would like your character to die or become another species you must have Heather's permission.
- Now, since their is a killing game going on, so keep in mind that some character's will die.
- There is no character limit, but try not to have them all be the same gender.
- Stay active. If you're going to be gone for more than a week, post so in the away board.
- Don't make your signature stretch the board. An admin will delete your sig if this happens, it really gets on my nerves. Don't make it too tall, either.
- Please try to have an avatar and signature before you are accepted, you don't have to, but you should have them after you're accepted.
- You must read the species info
- You must also read the information on how to play the game
