These are the rules of Hogwarts, passed down from Headmaster to Headmaster, and told to children of years.
The General Rules:
• Please follow the Proboards TOS rules on proboards. If you don't they can shut down the board, and we don't want that happening now do we?
• Please DO NOT steal any of our content or ideas! If you would like to use one of our ideas, please notify an admin, so that we know (though we are allowed to say no), and PLEASE give us credit for it. We have worked EXTREMELY hard on this site!
• The Staff here has worked really hard to make this site work well, so please respect all of the admin. If they tell you do something, simply do it without arguing, OK?
• your display name must be your character's name. We don't want to see that your name is trio321 or something, You may wait until you are accepted to change your name, but please don't wait too long.
•. SO maybe not everyone's first language is English, but the is one little button there that says, 'Spell Check' and it checks your spelling. Please use it, I think you'd rather read, "She entered the room and sat down on the comfy red armchair" rather than, "Sh entterd da romm and sta down on te conmfy reed chaiirr."
•You can swear, but don't go overboard! I don't want every five words out of your character's mouth to be fxck or anything near it!
•You can have as many characters as you wish, just make sure that you can handle them all! Also, I would like it if you only had 2 canons to be fair with others. The rest could be whatever you like, so have fun!
The Role-paying Rules
•Always Role-Play at the third person and in the past. If you need an example, read Harry Potter! It is the perfect example.
Good example:
Harry entered the common room, tired from his day.
Bad example:
I entered the common room because my day was so tiring.
•Try to use a celebrity that looks like they could actually be a student if your character is a student. If you want to choose a celebrity that is kind of old-looking, then find pictures from them when they were young! I don't think that a picture of Julie Andrews (no offense if she is reading this!) now would be able to fit as a student. An adult maybe, but not a student.
•Please try your best to write at the very least 1 paragraph per post, with at least 4-6 sentences. Just to give the other person SOMETHING to reply to
•No God-Modding. All sites are banning this, and we are too. For those of you who don't know, God-Modding is when your character is invincible. They cannot dodge 10 spells in a row. At least get hit a few times! IF you still don't understand, then I shall give you an example.
God-modding is:
Harry shot a spell flying at Malfoy, who dodged it because he knew it was coming. So Harry tried again, concentrating hard to get him. Malfoy dodged again and laughed. He turned around, his back now facing Harry and started to walk away, knowing that Potter wouldn't dare try to hit him. Harry, who was angry by now, tried a non-verbal spell. Draco merely stepped aside and with a yawn left the room.
-Do you see how annoying it is if you were Harry RPing with someone like Draco? Wouldn't you get annoyed? What DRACO is doing is God-Modding
•Try to keep the Autoing low OK? Autoing is when you take control of the other person's character. Yes the Imperius curse exists, but you must have the other Role-Players permission to do it, and they must agree to what you shall make their character do. NO permission means NO Imperius Curse!
•Do not use an Anime character name. If you do, we might let it go IF you use your own history for your character, and not the one used in the anime character's plot from the Anime show of whatever.
•Drugs and Sex are allowed please warn us so that if we don't want to see it we don't have to. You can or put R in your title or you can PM an admin and we can create a password protected board for you if you want it to be private.
•In RP, if a teacher says they will take off points, they may or may not choose to do for real. OK, so a student is not perfect, we understand, so maybe for the fun of the RP, you may agree for the teacher to actually take points off, or you may not. Try to discuss it with the teacher before actually RPing. Tell them that your character is just fooling around and that you don't mean it for real and they might let you slip. But if you don't communicate with them, then they might decided to literally take the points off.
The Signature/Avatars Rules
•Your avatars must not be bigger than 100x100
•No nudity, porn or anything too sexual in your signatures. If your are not sure whether yours is good or not, then PM an admin and we will tell you yes or no
•Please try your best to obtain a Signature and/or avatar. Just so that other member have an idea of what your character looks like
•You can have Signatures as big as you want, as long as they do not stretch the page. That goes for links too.
•If you can't do a signature or you don't have one, then you may request one from the Graphics board, like from someone's shop or something. You may ask for graphics for another site, BUT if the graphics maker says they will not make some for other sites, then end of story. Do not even ask them.
Thanks,
TF Staff
