The Rules

[MIKA]

the basics![/b]

01. Difference. This site is pretty unique. It's almost five sites in one! The areas - Land of Astale, World of War, Japanese Empire, Nation of Aeon, and Region of Mystère - are all completely different and separate from each other. This means that if you have a character in the World of War, you cannot post with that character in the Nation of Aeon. If you want to post in another world, please create a new character for that land.

02. Activity! Please, please, please don't join, create a character and then never post. We want active members! And remember, activity means role-playing, not spamming in the chat boards!

03. Respect. This is a big thing here. Treat others as you wish to be treated. This means everyone. I don't want to be seeing rude and hurtful comments.

04. Attitude. Yes, we all can have our bad days. We understand this. However, if there are any disputes, please take them to the PMs and not the chat box, or to an admin to sort it out. We don't know there's a problem if you don't come to us.

05. Accounts. You may not have more than one character on one account. For every character you have, you must have an account for it. Your display name must be the first and last name of your character.

06. Character limit. Currently there is no set character limit. You can have as many as you want! However, please only make characters you will role-play. If we see inactive accounts they will be deleted.

07. Creation. Follow the application as it is posted. If that wasn't the way we admins wanted it, we wouldn't have posted it. If you truly have an issue with part of it (laziness does not count), feel free to message one of the admins to get it sorted.

01. Your Character. Do not god-mod. This means your character is not all-powerful and unable to be damaged by anything. Keep it realistic! Everyone has weaknesses, no one is perfect. Sure, if you have a demon or another special character, you won't be as easy to hit, but you can still be harmed. Don't make a flawless character. No one is perfect; everyone has weaknesses.

02. Word Count. Please be literate. Your role-play posts must have proper grammar, spelling, and capitalization. If you are a bad speller, run your posts through spell check first! So, with that being said, try to be able to post at least three hundred to five hundred words. Now, we do understand that everyone has bad days, but we do not want to see a constant lapse in post length. You should type in third-person, past tense.

03. Rating. We will allow swearing, violence, and romance to an extent. The permission to swear doesn't mean that every other word is a curse word. Violence, as many of the lands have a war or some sort of fighting involved, is obviously accepted. Draw blood, break some bones, but don't be gross about it. As for romance, we'd appreciate no sex on the forums. If your thread goes in that direction and you want to do it , do so elsewhere.

04. Anime. We are an anime character site. Please don't use any real-life people. We have a face-claim, so please try to find out what anime the character is from if you can. It's not a problem if you can't, as we accept original characters as well!

graphics![/b]

01. Signature. The maximum height and width you are allowed is 500 height by 300 width. It helps to keep board stretching to a minimum. Any that are greater than the set dimensions will be subject to re-sizing.

02. Icons. Please use a 100 height by 100 width icon. They are the easiest to see and use, and they look nice.

chat-box![/b]

01. Respect. I've said this before. It's important, so I will say it again. Respect each other. Please be polite and kind to your fellow site members. The site was created for fun, and it's no fun when someone is being a jerk to everyone else.

02. Attitude. I've said this one too before. Do not fight in the chat box. This is neither productive in your standing in the site and will chase away potential members. If you cannot settle your differences in a civil manner, take it somewhere else - either to private messages or an admin.

03. Advertising. A chat-box is not a place for you to advertise. There is an advertisement section in the out of character section, so please use that!
