Hello! If you're here you're either a guest or a member. Either way, welcome!
No bullying. This will not be tolerated, and will result in bans lasting anywhere from a day to two weeks. After three bans, if you are still bullying, you will have a permanent ban. Note: if you are being bullied, PM a staff member immediately.
Staff's rule is law. If the staff says something is closed, done, finished, it is closed, done, or finished. If you disagree with anything the staff has said, take it to PM. If you have caught the staff member doing something that bypasses the rules without permission from the admin that will be granted on this thread, then take it to PM. Proof (screenpohoto, etc.) is essential. If you have been proven to be falsely accusing a staff member of doing something wrong, you will be banned for a day (depending on the severity of the accusation) and will receive a warning PM. You will have thirty minutes after such a warning to tell your roleplay friends that you have to go for the rest of the day/week/whatever.
Don't be one of those people who cause trouble all the time. They're annoying to be around. Unless you're in character and have a good reason to be a toublemaker, don't be a trouble maker. Depending on the trouble you cause, you risk punishment.
No Polyjuice. For those of you who aren't HP fans, it simply means this: DON'T IMPERSONATE. Password-stealing and impersonating isn't nice, cool, and definitely not OK. Remember that hacking is illegal. Unless someone literally gives you their account and let's a staff member know of this, we will take it as hacking.
No spamming. Spamming isn't allowed with the exception of the shoutbox and threads that are marked "Spam allowed". Please, no spamming or flooding. This generally means don't get off topic or be all like "hey hey hey hey hey hey hey" or hey (space) hey (space) hey (space) hey (space) etc.
No inappropriate stuff on your profile Not allowed. If a staff member sees it, he or she will remove it immediately and send you a warning. If we have to warn three or more times, you will be banned... time depending on the content. Exception of Character backstory, but it has to have a trigger warning sign.
Trigger Warning If your character backstory, roleplay, etc. contains things that might trigger, as in rape, suicide, stillborns, heavy drugs, etc. Place a sign that says (Trigger warning <place content here>) at the top of your post.
Personal matters Take personal matters/real life stuff either to PM or to the thread marked "Problems or Stress Can Be Ranted Here"... because, hard truth: not everyone wants to hear your problems. However, that's for hard stuff. Light stuff can be taken to the Spam thread.
Advertising Advertising can only be done in the Advertising board or PM's. Sorry, folks, Bryniel counts as advertising.
Power Limitations Every demigod has powers... to an extent. Look on the "Character Powers" Thread for things that certain demigods can do.
Powerplay/God-mod ABSOLUTELY NOT ALLOWED. God modding is making yourself invincible, and power playing is controlling some else's character. Don't do it.
Artwork We will have artwork here shortly, and when we do... don't use it without permission. If someone makes art for you, you cannot give it to someone else without the creator's permission.
Members If a member quits, s/he MUST delete the account they were on. This doesn't count as to if they're taking a break... if they're taking a break, they must notify the staff member as to why and how long they'll be taking it. You can only be away for a week after the date you should be back. After that, your account will be disabled.
Lighting No bright lighting is allowed on the site.
And that's it for now.
