The site Offence Stages:

2- By committing yet another offence after gaining a warning, the member will be disabled for the day allowing them access to the site in 24 hours after being disabled
3- If the Member comes back and commits yet a third Offence, then they shall be disabled for a week
4- If yet another Offence is committed even after being punished several times, the Member will lose ALL their character applications and threads plus their account details.
This site is rated M for Mature
So if your under the age of 18 and have never heard the word Fuck before... well you have now. If your planning to stick around too, then don't expect us to be lenient towards swearing and adult content. After all, this is a site built for the 14+
Harrassment
Discrimination is not tolerated on this site what so ever this includes; Race, Colour, Relgion, Age, Sex etc
We also don't exactly enjoy watching members and staff squabbling and calling each other needledick or twat face. So, if we see any name calling that is causing an offensive result, we will skip straight to stage 2.
Multiple Accounts
Having more then one account so you can RP with yourself is not fun, cool or a worth while thing to do as doing so will result in posts being reset.
Language
Please refrain from using text speak in your posts not everyone can understand it. By that, we mean sayin stf lik dis. r u gttin me? Its just frustrating.
Please try to keep swearing to a minimum we understand that in posts the character are put into situations where it just feels right to write a swear word or two but keep it to these must have situations and not used excessively.
Applications
Read the template before writing your application making sure that you can cover all bases, while leaving some blank spaces is ok as long as they are filled in before you start playing is ok, having half an application missing is not acceptable and will be declined without so much as a second look.
Character Knowledge
There is a simple rule regarding your own character knowledge to another. There are multiple ways for your character to know another characters personal information such as name, age, tastes etc
The rule is that upon entering a thread, you know nothing of the other players unless you have RolePlayed with them before and that they have told you the info or you have seen it occur in front of you. If you say you have met them before, you have to have some kind of proof like a thread where you both fought etc.
You will also not know a character powers at all until you have fought them. Once they have been used, you will only know the ones that had been shown. If they had 4 but you saw 3 then you can only make reference to the three you saw.
Try to make this as realistic as possible or you will definatly be shunned by other members for not playing fairly
Role-Playing
No GODMODING at all, ever. God-moding is taking control of some-one else's character or making an attack hit. (For those needing a more obvious motion) "He stabbed her in the shoulder". (This is wrong, an acceptable way is) "He aimed a stab for her shoulder". You must always give your opponent the choice to block, dodge or take the hit.
Remember that your not superman. Fighting somebody as strong as you will have a 50-50 chance to hit you. So don't dodge and block everything. This is a form of godmoding.
Don't spam posts (posting before your go or posting as a different character of which you own) to boost your posts as this will result in double the posts you made being reduced from your total posts.
When you role-play, you must always write in third person. Saying that YOU did it all isn't the right way to go about things. You need to state that HE or SHE did things. Your not your character exactly so you need to describe what THEIR doing not what YOUR doing. If you were, your posts would be full of descriptions about typing on a keyboard.
Taking Turns
When you Role Play, you need to take turns properly as if you were playing a board game. Once you have posted and others have done too, you now start the next series of posts. So if I went first followed by Member 2, 3 then 5, the next posts will have to go in that order.
One Liners?
When Roleplaying, you need to be able to make a name for yourself. The easiest way to do that, is to write enough for your battles to be interesting. Yes, the more you write in both your applications and threads the better you will look. However, not writing enough will make you look like an idiot. People that write one sentence saying "I run forwards and hit you" are going to easily be booted from the site for pure idiocy. That's because that line was in first person and was also god modding. That's why we recommend every post be at least two paragraphs long containing at least 5 lines. That way, fights and talks can always be interesting and you don't end up bricking the thread.
No Killing
You cannot kill another player now matter how hard you try. Even if your a million stages better you are forbidden to slay other members characters. However, event threads have their own set rules which need to be read if your about to join an event.
There is only a single way of bypassing the killing rule. That is if the member you are killing agree's to allow the death. This can be for a number of reasons including a separate Character Plot or even Killing off an application in style.
