General Board Rules
•Announcements Please read all sticky and announcement posts. You'll find them in EVERY forum. They are there to clue you in on the rules, news, descriptions, and general goings-on at the board.
•Plagiarism (Plagiarize: to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own : use (a created production) without crediting the source vi: to commit literary theft: present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source -) This is NOT ALLOWED.
•Bigotry (The state of mind of a bigot; One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ. ) - This is not allowed in ANY way.
•Spamming Please be sure to place all appropriate posts in the right sections and not advertise your forum all over the entire board. Do NOT mass PM members on the board advertising a contest or site. This will incur a heavy penalty or banning. Also double posting is not allowed.
•Pity Posts Please don't be a whiner! Please don't make posts that no one will R.P. with you, you can't make an avatar, you have a toothache, etc.. Any post that has a "please pity me" tone will not be tolerated and can lead to warnings. We're very sorry for your problems, but these posts are really bumming for us to read too. Please discuss these issues with your close friends or family. This is not the forum to discuss serious R.L. problems.
•AV's and SIGs You must have a playby for your character and you must include a pic of this character in your av slot. We would like avs to be 150 by 150 pixels. As far as sigs are concerned, these need to be limited to a few things that are given to you during sorting: your wand (decorated if you wish), your ring, and your spellbook (linked to your spellbook post). Other than this, we will allow a quote if you'd like to give a feel of your character's personality. Also we do not allow any use of blood/gore/nudity or anything else that might be disturbing to some people. Use your judgment!
•Controversies Please try to keep this forum friendly by NOT bringing up any touchy, controversial issues. Such topics include politics, racism, sexual orientations and religion. It's ok to discuss such matters ONLY if you can do it in a mature direction by not offending anyone.
•Flaming flaming or attacking of any members or staff WILL NOT be tolerated. If you have a personal dispute with another person, take it off the board and solve it on your own time. People found doing this will be banned from the forum.
