RULES
WRITTEN CONTENT. The content you post should be suitable for an audience as young as 13 years old. There should be no graphic material on the site, or linked to in threads. In addition, all in character posts should be at least 250 words long. Stolen content will be removed upon request.
VISUAL CONTENT. There should be No Graphic Images posted on the site. Any images or visuals used should not exceed 480px in width or 300px in height, if they are a signature or in a post, and they should not exceed 150 px in width or 150 px in height if they are an avatar. Visual content should not be taken from other people without their permission. Hovers are 150x300.
INTERACTIONS. It would be naive to think that everyone will like everyone else. We cannot make people like each other, but we can keep those that don't from ruining the site. That is why bullying, insulting others, and other crude acts will not be tolerated. If you disagree with another person, whether it be a staff or a member, bring it to Private Message or Skype.
ACTIVITY CHECK. Members are expected to be at least somewhat active. Once a month, usually on the 15th (or the nearest Sunday to the 15th), we will have an Activity Check. At that time how the Activity Check will be run will be explained. All you need to know now is that through the check we will determine which characters are active. Those that aren't will be archived, but do not worry. You will be able to unarchive them soon after the check.
FACE CLAIM. A face claim must be from an anime, manga, game or comic. No real life face claims. Original artwork may be used as long as you have the artist's permission and it is either drawn or created through 3d modeling. No kisekae, proboards avatars, imvu, etc.
ACCOUNTS. You should have at most one character per account. If you create a second character on an account, the first will be archived. Members are allowed to have NPC accounts, and they can add them to the NPC membergroup without staff intervention.
CHARACTERS. All characters should be original. While a character may be similar to a character from a series, we do not want to see terms, items or skills from a series. Each member can have two characters to start with. After that you will need to get staff approval to make more characters. One of your characters can start with two level three applications (skills). If that character is archived, you can do that with a different character, but only one of your characters can have that freebie.
CANONS. We do not actually have canon positions. Teachers are not canon and staff will control the heads of the two academy. So there are no canon positions right now. However, if we do add them they will need to post in characterly once every seven days. If they have to away for a while they should put in their account status that they are away and until when. Away threads cannot cover more than a month's time.
CBOX. While we don't mind the cbox becoming random and crazy, we do have some rules. No mature content links. If you think something might be mature, include a disclaimer that it's nsfw. Try to be respectful of other members too. If they ask you not to do or say something, please stop. If you disagree with them, talk to staff. If staff say to stop or not to do something, please listen. Staff will only give one warning. After that they will give out one day cbox bans, so please don't force our hand.
ICBOX. Please keep ooc chat to a minimum. If you do need to ooc talk, then use (( )) to denote ooc text. You may use the ICBox without having an approved character, but if you are seen frequently in the icbox without making a character you will be asked to leave until you do make a character. All other rules listed on this page apply to the cbox.
