now this is obviously a roleplaying site, and not an amateur one either. don't you dare register as "omfgharyPOTTERluver395059" because your ass will be denied in about the millisecond it takes me to look at your name. got it? when you register, i don't really care what it is, as long as it isn't ridiculous like the above, but your display name needs to be a first middle and last name in lowercase letters, no extra symbols, no nothing. just that, it looks put together.
now. this site does in fact have an application. however, it is very short and easy to do, and some things are one word answers, so don't whine and complain about it, just do it and don't mess up any bit of the coding, not that there is much really, because that just pisses meoff. and when you post your application, do it like this: LAST NAME, first name middle initial. it makes everything easier. and at least try to avoid posting unfinished apps, because those are just annoying.
this is a literate to advanced rpg. know what that means? no? then go on. we don't want beginners here, and we don't want amateurs, because that's just a little bit insulting to rp with. there isn't really a post length minimum, just make sure to post three to four good and decent paragraphs per post. don't write little baby paragraphs that are like, two to three sentences long. naw. we're all in high school or about to be, aren't we? you can damn sure write more than that, and if you can't, than you shouldn't be on here. a paragraph is five to six sentences minimum. and don't just be like 'the cat walked into the room. it smelled the room.' naw, we don't want that, do we now?
what's a really good method to rp with, is the mirroring method. that's where you post as much as your partner gave you. for a beginner post just do the minimum, and then you and your partner trade off on posts, keeping it around the same range. hokai? that's not too hard.
there is no limit on how many characters you can have, because i trust you to be able to judge what you are capable of. if you can't actively roleplay fifteen characters, than don't make that many. a good amount is three or four, but you know your limits, i hope so at least. and if you're gonna have more than one character, be careful of the gender ratio. if you have a girl already, it'd be best if you made a boy. if you already have two girls, don't make another one. if you have a boy, you should probably make a girl, but it'd be just fine if you make a boy, because those are really rare for some reason.
i hate mary sues. and gary stues. and sally sob stories. really, you are not a perfect little angel that is loved by all and has never had a single bad thing happen to them, i don't care how many powers you have. and at the same time, you didn't watch your father get beaten to death, your mother raped and killed, and then be raped continuously for a year. and don't make yourself uber powerful, it's disgusting and annoying, and it won't be allowed.
and playbys. be creative! let's say for once that kstewart and rob don't fall in love, and they aren't a couple. what if kristen had a thing for chad michael murray, huh? or rob decides to go older and likes tina fey? what then? don't limit yourself to celebrity couples or tv couples or anything like that, because it seriously bugs me. yeah, it makes pictures so much easier, but it's so boring and set and basic that the entire plot just dies down within moments of being put up, and people leave because their bored. so don't do it, ok? try your hand at something new, branch out. it'll be fun, i promise.
are you a big fat meany? do you enjoy watching the look of utter sadness and misery on an admins face when their site slowly declines into nothingness. hm? yeah, well, that's not allowed. don't join and then just ploof. oh i don't feel like logging in anymore. oh i don't feel like posting anymore. well too freakin bad for you. either join and stay active and a part of the community, or don't join at all. i hate people that sign up, stare at the site, begin an app, and then just don't come on. i actually had my co-admin do that on my last site, and guess what? SHE'S NOT STAFF ANYMORE. she never will be again. just like you'll never be on the site again if you do that.
yes, you can go on vacations and yes you can still live your life, but give us a heads up when you're not going to be around for a while. just please, don't make a habit of not being here.
well, i'll be damned, that's a rating! yes sirree, it is. and guess what? this site is rated 'R'. that means their will be sex, their will be cussing, their will be drinking and drugs. although vampires aren't affected by drugs and alcohol. sorry. humans still get to be drug addicts, though, so yay? of course, i do ask you to go in and put a warning in your thread so that people that don't want to read it don't stumble on it. yeah, they probably shouldn't read your thread, but hey, the admins are going to read it anyways, and if you don't have a warning, we will warn you. kai?
and hey, if you dont want to, you dont have to. don't let anyone tell you that you have to rp this with them. just tell me what theyre doing and ill have a nice little chat with them about, kay? you don't have to do anything you don't want to. if you aren't comfortable with it, say so. if you want to fade to black, then go right ahead. this is about your own comfort level, so don't let anyone control you about it.
HAVE FUN! this is an rpg site, this is a fantasy site, you're supposed to have fun and do whatever you want! rules are just guidelines, have fun.
