STARTING OFF
1. Be active. Do not join this site if you cannot post at least once a week. We will have monthly activity checks to get rid of the stragglers. If you are going to be inactive for any period of time longer than a week, inform the staff.
2. Change your display name to be your character’s name in ALL CAPS, no special characters BEFORE you are accepted. Your character application will be ignored until you do so.
3. One character per account. You need to make a new account for each of your characters and roleplay each character on their respected accounts.
4. This is a literate English roleplay. Try and use good grammar and spelling, please.
5. Respecting others make them like you more. So, respect everyone here. There should never be a reason to be a douche to anyone here, so play nice.
6. No drama. All the Admins will not tolerate drama on this site, and if you DO cause drama. . . well, your friends will fine your body parts inside my puppy.
7. This site is rated M for Mature, Though cursing, drugs, and sexual reference are allowed, you must keep it from going over Proboard's expectations. (Nudity and some things will not be tolerated.)
8. Stealing is wrong, so do not steal from us.
POSTING
9. There is no advertising allowed outside the PLUGS board. If staff finds you PMing or posting advertisements anywhere else on the site, you will be banned.[/size]
10. Use spell check before posting people. You can download the web browser FireFox for free and it spell checks everything you type pretty much OR use MS Word.
CHATBOXES
11. The OOC chat is for easy communication among our members. It is not the complaint box, so if you have a problem, PM a staff member. Members who continue to whine and complain in the OOC chat will get banned from it.
12. IC chat is for in-character conversations only. Don't forget!
CHARACTER APPLICATIONS
13. No canon characters. This is a non-canon site, so keep the Avatar characters out.
14. You have to fill out every part of the application. Obviously if there is a part that does not fit to your character, such as 'Element' for example, a simple answer like none will be okay.
15. The last part of the character application is MANDATORY; it is required to be filled out. If you post your application without it, a staff member will post a warning and afterwords if not changed, delete it.
16. Your character’s name should be the subject title of your application post. If you are posting an unfinished character application, make sure you have WIP in the title or staff will consider it as completed.
17. You may only have one in progress application at a time. If you do not finish your application within two weeks, staff will delete it.
18. Characters can only use ONE type of element, the only exception is the Avatar. Elements such as Light or Darkness are not allowed.
19. The avatar is one being who has the ability to bend all four elements, all of the admins must approve of this application. ALTHOUGH the Avatar may be good or evil, the decision is up to the user.
20. Only staff and the creator of that application should post within any character application.
21. No Mary Sue/Gray Stu type characters. No one is completely perfect, that's just the way things are. Make it so your character's positive and negative traits balance out.
22. Character applications will not be accepted if they do not include a password given out from these rules. Failure to provide the password will be taken as a sign that you did not read the rules and your application will be deleted.
ROLEPLAY
23. All posts within the main roleplaying boards should be in the third person. Please color code speaking parts of your responses.
24. There is a minimum word limit of 200 words for any roleplay posts, no less.
25. No god-modding/power playing/or the like is allowed here. We all know what it meant by that, so do not try and play stupid. You will be banned.
26. You can only roleplay the characters that have been approved by the staff. You are NOT allowed to post in the Roleplay Grounds with a character that is not yet approve by the staff.
27. MOST characters start off as new fighters/benders and cannot become a master of his/her element in just a matter of days. To obtain new techniques you must TRAIN with others or battle against others to gain new strength. Unless a canon character or a high-ranked officer with master-level abilities, everyone follows this system of ranking:28. Not all characters know each other right off. Remember that.
- Beginner - No (0) Post
- Intermediate - Fifty (50) Posts
- Mediate - One-hundred fifty (150) Posts
- Trainer - Four hundred (400) Posts
- Master - Seven hundred (700) Posts
- Grandmaster - One thousand (1000) Posts
29. If you have more than two people within a topic, keep a posting order. It would be easier for all parties if you just stick to the order in which everyone joined into the topic.
