Okay, these rules are pretty basic, but going to be strictly enforced. Steps for punishment will be listed at the bottom of the post. If you have any questions about them, please PM me, or, if I have not been on recently, PM another staff member and they will find a way to contact me with your questions.
Rule #1:
Be kind, respectful and and thoughtful towards your fellow members...or, if you can't manage that, at least civil. If you are having problems with another member, please let myself or another staff member know and we will take care of it.
Rule #2:
This is a PG-13 site. We have younger members who should be respected and any breach of this will result in disciplinary action. This includes sexual content, alcohol, drugs, cursing and suicide. I know some will argue that there are gods of drugs and alcohol and this is true, but please note that in the books, the god of Wine, Dionysus has a ban on wine and thus results to drinking diet coke. If he can do it, so can you.
Rule #3:
I know for some, this might be your first forum, but understand that no one wants to wait for 5-10 minutes for your banner to upload, no matter how awesome it is. Please keep your banner at 500x300 or smaller, thank you. The AVA's are 350x220
Rule #4:
Harassment of fellow site members will result in immediate banning and deletion of all accounts. I will not stand to have my site members, my friends and my family harassed or treated with cruelty or ignorance.
Rule #5:
Fights between characters must be sign off on by a staff member before hand. As must be character deaths/births or anything else of that nature.
Rule #6:
If you have never posted before and are not sure how, ask someone. It frustrates the already practiced members when someone just jumps in and has no idea what they are doing. We don't bite and are always willing to help, simply let someone know you need it.
Rule #7:
Have fun. :3 I love to see all my members enjoying the site, so please, if you have any requests or suggestions, don't hesitate to ask, but know that if they go against these rules, they will
Rule #8:
Do not under any circumstances double post or spam any thread other than the SPAM THREAD (How Far Will Proboards Go?). If an admin finds it, the secret code is war and peace, they will edit the first post to encompass all the others, or if it is pure spam, the posts will be deleted and you WILL be banned for 1 week.
A second offense will be an automatic deletion of account, because seriously, it's not hard.
Rule #9:
There is no limit to the amount of accounts you can have as long as they are all active.
Rule #10
Most of you probably already know this but I am a worrier so I decided to put it up if you want a thread to just be between your character and someone else please put the names of allowed people in the title. E.g. (Zeus and Hera) posting in these threads by anyone else would be deleted.
Rule #11
We have a 100 word minimum on the site, if posting from a device that does not have the word counter please make sure you are over the word count.
Punishments:
For a first offense, you will get a warning. For a second, a 2 day suspension. A third offence will get you a 5 day suspension and a forth will get you a permenant ban.
The only rule exempt from these is Rule # Four, which will get you permanently banned.
