[rules]
_{[the golden law]}


[advertising]

Advertising is only allowed your signature, in the form of a link or a small button.
PMing others, making a thread outside of the correct forum, or spamming to advertise is not allowed. Warning.
Don't advertise inappropriate sites or anything like that. Warning.


[double posting]

Don't do it. Use the edit button if you have something else to say.


[posting rules]

Spamming is not allowed.
Don't use one liners. Makes the whole site look bad.
OOC comments don't belong in forums marked with an [RP] unless with a legit post.

Adult language is allowed to an extent. Don't go overboard with the F-bombs. Don't even use it.Warning.
Sexual language is prohibited. At most, flirting. Nothing more. Ban.
Violence is permitted but don't make it too graphic. No killing other RPer's characters.Warning.

Flaming is not allowed. Period.Warning.


[accounts]

One account per person. That doesn't mean you can use another email to register for another account. We'll know. Warning.

People are permitted to create a second character once they have reached the Soldier rank.

Only two characters max unless you've won the permission to create a third. It is only given during events and festivals, so don't bother PMing admins for it.


[ranks]

Ranks is basically a level of how active you are on the site. The more active, the higher the rank.

There are a number of ranks, and as you progress upwards, you will receive different things. A second character, secret forums, etc.

Basic Hierarchy
Exile - banned
Adventurer - validating
Thief
Hunter
Sky Pirate
Soldier
Elite
Judge
Senator - moderator
Judge Magister - administrator

A little note on ranks. They have no affect on your character. So if you're in the sky pirate rank, your character doesn't necessarily have to be one unless you want to.


[signatures]

Be smart about your signatures and avatars. Don't put up something inappropriate.
Signatures must be 500x150 at largest. Any larger will be replaced without warning.
Avatars are 100x100 max. The forum will automatically resize any larger, but who wants a scrunched up avy?

Please post a link to your character profiles in your signature. It doesn't matter how you do it. Just do it.


[godmodding]

Very important. Don't godmod. For all of those who don't know what it is, it means to control your RP partner's character.
It is allowed if it is used for the purpose of keeping the thread going, as long as you have their permission.
During fights, attacks don't automatically hit the character. Let the RPer decide!


[lastly]

Affliation requests go to the admins. PM us and we'll think about it.
Report anything shady or suspicious to the admins. We'll deal with it.
The punishments are posted next to the reason but don't think that's the only instances we'll use such punishments. Don't test us.
LASTLY. Don't get the admins mad. kaythxb.
