5. Unlimited Supply of characters and threads per character:
1. Don't harass another member.
Honestly, I shouldn't need to say this. Please, no flaming, as it is commonly put. Yes, there are many individuals we don't like, but cursing them out in public, or in PMs is not the right way to handle it - ignore each other, if you must, and move on. Be a little mature about things. If you flame a member, you will be warned. For repeat or serious offenses, you could be banned.
2. Do not Spam.
Spamming is a Forum term commonly used to mean, when you post right after your post (that has no one else's response after it) within a 24 hour time period. You must wait the full 24 hours (or more, if it states otherwise) before responding right after your own post. Remember this: If it hasn't fallen off Page 1 in a board, it's still safely viewable and it is considered Spamming to post in it.
3. Do not post Adult Related Themes.
I know many people enjoy that, it's no secret like it used to be in the '50s and such. But remember that 13 year olds are allowed to register on this site. That means, this needs to be a PG-PG 13 rated site. Anything going against this - in writing or through images, either in posts or on a person's profile, signature, or avatar, will be removed.
Profile Rules:
1. Signature can be a maximum of 500 pixels by 400 pixels.
Although there is no minimum - so essentially you can choose to not have a signature at all - there is a maximum. No one should have to scroll about Two Word Document pages' worth of one person's signature to get to the next post. Counting every inch of your signature - words and pictures collectively - they should be no more than 500 pixels in length and 400 pixels in width.
2. Avatars can be a maximum of 100 pixels by 100 pixels.
This rule is enforced all on it's own - anything bigger will be resized by the system itself. It's how Proboards is set up and, hey!, if that's the way they want it, who are we to argue? It is their site/system, over all!
Roleplaying Rules:
1. Nothing Sexual.
This is going to be blunt - you cannot roleplay out the mating scenes of you and any one of your partners. Adults should be the only ones viewing that, and teens are allowed on this site, as well, too. You can MILDLY hint at it, only.
2. What happens in RP happens you your character.
Don't 'erase' something that happened in one RP off of your character forever. That's a very cheap, IM form of RPing, and I'd like us to be a bit more serious in our RPs then that. It's not really enforced, but if you want to do that then you can go to PMs for simple leisurely fun, right?
3. No God-modding, no Powerplaying.
You cannot, in any way, shape, or form control someone else's character or control what happens to someone else's character without their permission. Remember that - this is the easiest way to ruin the fun experience of RP altogether. You want to God-mod or Powerplay? Get the owner of that particular character's consent.
4. Follow the form when making a character.
You don't have to wait for a character to be approved to start roleplaying them, but you must always correct any errors about your character's profile when asked to.
5. Unlimited Supply of characters and threads per character:
I don't care if you have 1 or 50 characters. I don't care if Tiffy the fox is in 1 or 500 different threads at once. You have to keep up with each one of them, not me.
