THE RULES

[ASHIEMON]

[style=padding: 15px; text-align: justify; font-size: 7.5pt;]READ ALL OF THE RULES and obey them so you don't get on our bad side!

001. Badger the staff for any silly reason, and we will become annoyed and easily infuriated. That doesn't mean you can't ask questions - but we'd prefer if you actually read the site information before coming to us for help.

002. Be a nice person and people will be nice to you in return. It's that simple.

003. The above rule also alludes to the 'no fighting' policy we'd like to keep.

004. Spam = bad. Do it and die.

005. It doesn't take any effort to write out words like 'are' and 'you' so don't think that you're exempt from that. Even out of character

006. Grammar is good. In and out of character. Using readable grammar makes your posts, well, readable.

007. Images are great, however they must be smaller that 500px across or they will stretch the board all funky.


[style=text-align: center]CREATION RULES

008.Once you register, please change your display name to your character's first then last names in uppercase. Please and thank you.

009. Don't register and go away without creating a character - Actually, don't register, create a character, and then go away, either. If you're going to register, then create a character and stay here forever! We understand that people get busy, but if you can't handle it, why bother?

010. If you leave your application unfinished for longer than a week with no explanation, we will believe you aren't coming back, and it will be archived - if you do come back, personal message us so you can finish it.

011. All face claims are of the anime/manga genre. Real people, comics, digitalized/video game style, and original artwork are all banned. As is any other kind of art. Every character must have a face claim, too; if you need help, other members and staff can easily help out.

012. If your character seems too perfect by our standards we will tell you to revise it. Mary-Sues and Gary-Stus aren't allowed. Neither are characters that are invincible. Don't even try.

013. Characters that are unique and have depth are awesome. Average-Joe type characters are awesome, too, but the more original you can make them, the better! (And the more enthusiastic we will be about accepting them).

014. You can have up to four characters. Go wild.

IN CHARACTER RULES

015. We don't have a set word count limit, but that doesn't mean you can go around dropping one liners. A 300-500 word post is entirely manageable. Not required, of course, but manageable. If you are having trouble forming a single well-worded paragraph per post, there may be a problem...

016. Adult-ish themes are welcomed. That doesn't mean we're writing a porno, kay?

017. Yes, this is a pokemon role play, that doesn't mean your character can go around doing things other characters can't - like blow up a building or kill another person. Character deaths are forbidden unless neatly planned out.

018. Don't expect the perfect plot, please. This sounds silly, but a role play takes at least two members, and the other member may not have the same ideas as you. If something is straying way off track, notify them. If not, suck it up. We're sorry, but there's nothing the staff can do about that.

019. Don't even think about powerplaying around us.
