1. have fun!
2. Please keep the cursing to a minimum. A few here and there will be tolerated, but over use will not! Please use good judgment when posting!
3. All posts must be in third person format. Nothing drives me crazier then when people post in first person!
4. No power playing, or Godmoding. What this means is you can't control other people's characters.
A Godmoding, explaination
1. You cast any spell at a person and make it automatically hit.
2. Your character isn't so great that he dodges everything, or the spells don't effect him.
The reason for these two rules is simple. Say your character is in a duel and I cast a killing curse on you. Haha, you're dead. That's godmoding. Or if I fire one spell at you, and they hit you, but nothing happens to you for some unknown reason. Every character should have a chance to respond to every spell cast at them. Granted you shouldn't be able to dodge everything so just use your own judgement.
If you decide to have a spell hit you please let it take the right effects. Ive seen people take the Cruciatus Curse and just walk away like they got sprayed with a water hose. In the books it was described as the most agonizing pain. No one just shook it off and said, " Is that the best you got?"
I know this is a fantasy RPG, but lets try to make it stick to the books, thank you, so that means no Veela's that are experts in magic or no Ravenclaws that can speak parseltongue etc. So in closing, Godmoding, and Power Playing will not be tolerated in any way!
5. No, and I mean NO Mary Sue characters! Everyone on earth has some flaws.
6. Your character MUST have a first and last name. And not just on the Sorting App or in your profile, in your display name. And if you don't have a clue how to change it, just PM me or Roxine Dawson and I'm sure we can change it for you
7. We are going to ask you that you have an avatar with your characters picture on it. This just makes it easier when knowing what your character looks like. If you are unsure or don’t know how to make one please feel free to contact me We are more then willing to help out you dont have to though if you cant find one
8. Also, please we only allow so many rare creature there can only be about 7 werewolves 10 unicorns, 4 hypogriffs, and 3 vampires. So if you have any other animals PM me about it!
9. Please, please run your post through a spell check. A few mis-spelling here are there is o.k., no one is perfect, but when your post is so riddle with mis-typing and spelling errors it make it impossible to read will not be tolerated!
10: Signiture Sizes! They are out of hand, and I myself have never made much of a fuss, but now I am. As the site is growing everyday getting new members and stuff we need to start getting the board looking neat and tidy, so stretched boards is one thing I hate! So the biggest your signature can get one character is 600x400 the size of my large signature. I don't mind about the height just the width. Also if you MUST just have a picture in your signature only use one and center it if you don't know how ask me or another admin
11. You may have up to seven charries on each account. However, you can't have multiple characters that will interact a lot.
12. Don't Steal My Work! If you want an idea or a code that I have used on my site or if you want to use some of these rules for your site PM me about it, I won't mind one bit as long as you asked. I worked very hard on this site and we don't want it all to go to you without any credit!
13. NO and we mean NO double Posting. It looks unprofessional, people don't like to watch you have a conversation with yourself, Besides, we have MODIFY buttons, where you can correct your errors. If I see anyone making a double post they will be put on a warning
14. NO SPAMMING!!!!!!! Please dont spam! It annoys everyone greatly so just dont!
15.No advertising in the shout box neither guests! you will be banned from shoutbox plus it gets irritating
