The Rules
A must read.
1. This role play is free- for-all-levels, meaning it need not matter whether you're an advanced, intermediate, or beginner classed role player. This forum holds all.
2. This forum is rated PG 14, but I do allow Rated posts. just be sure to mention it if you do post a rated post. Simply put an [R] after your post's title (POST'S TITLE [R]) Cursing and violent swearing Out of Character will resort to warning and banning.
3. Consideration and Courtesy is the key to being respected on this forum. If you respect our members, you will be respected in return. Please understand that nothing In Character is meant to be personal. It is simply role playing, so if anyone hurts your character in a role play post, don't get mad at them, but if they hurt you Out of Character, don't hesitate to tell me or any other admin. Also, since this is a free for all levels role play, please don't make fun of any body's posting techniques. If you think someone's post is too short, don't go 'I can't role play with you, you suck at roleplaying..' because it is simply downright rude.
4. I'd like to mention, regarding acceptance in Biograpphies, your bio will be locked automatically if you are accepted, so you need not to wait for a message or post.
5. When posting with three or more people, make sure you have a stable order of posting. You cannot double post in character unless it's really needed. You can simply modify it if you have a problem. Also, when posting, make sure you observe proper spelling and grammar. Okay, I'm not that much of a grammar geek, but still, it makes the site look more literate to other people, and sometimes, it even attracts more people.
6. Okay, so here are some of the cbox rules:
6.1. No Spamming of any kind, whatsoever.
6.2. You are only allowed to post a link to the site if you post our button on yours.
6.3. Do not impersonate other people on the cbox.
6.4. Your posts must be rated PG 14, and nothing more.
6.5. No fighting.
*If you disobey any of these rules, your IP address will be banned from the cbox.
7.If ever you would want to use a photo of your character, please note that ONLY celebrities are allowed here. This means, no stealing pictures from cute people on MySpace, no using of your pretty cousin's photo (for all you know, there could be some creepy old guy checking it out), and anything of the likes. Before you decide on your celebrity, though, check out the Claimed Celebrities List to see if he/she is taken already. If he/she isn't, then you're free to use him/her! And once your bio will be accepted, your chose celebrity will be added to the list.
8. You are allowed to bump your topic. For those who aren't quite sure what this is, it is simply replying to your own post with a 'bump' just to keep it from getting old, and to show people that you're gladly welcoming anyone in it. But bumping your topic continuously is not right, though. Once you bump your topic once, be sure not to do it until it grows inactive for a long period of time again. You can't just keep on bumping every hour when you don't see anyone replying to you. It often takes time for people to type up posts and consider your topic.
9. We do not allow spam. You know, posting useless, unnecessary crap like, "LOL!" or "Whatever..." or anything like that just to get the last word, or simply just for the purpose of answering back. Not everything needs a reply, too, okay? This rule applies both to OOC (Out of Character) and IC (In Character).
10. Don't steal or claim stuff that aren't yours. This goes for signatures, avatars, art and such. We strongly suggest you put a copyright on your stuff before showing them off to the members. But we trust that no one here is a thief, so don't make us lose that trust in you guys. Even stealing on the internet can give you a bad credit in the role playing world- we have a lot of different online friends from other sites, and we are always glad to warn them about thieves.

These rules are bound to change any day at any time, so keep looking back, but as for now, keep theses statements in mind. If you break any of these rules, I will give you warnings, or ban you, eventually if you still keep on breaking them.
