Posting
Other Stuff
- After registering please change your display name to your character's first and last name.
- Register a new account for each character.
Applying for your character
- To apply for your character start a thread in Pending Characters and fill in the application form.
- Remember to fill in all the fields.
- If you need help or pointers on filling in your application there is a guide in the Preparing Your Application board.
- The character limit is five. If you wish to have more than this PM me with a good reason why I should let you.
- In the real world no one is perfect so why should that be true for the RPG world? Everyone has flaws including your character. I will not accept perfect characters so don't try it, I can be harsh when it comes to this.
- As this is a Marauders Era RPG it's important for me to stress this rule. Werewolves, Animagi, Legillimens etc. are very rare. Unless your character has an ability that is canon then you will hae to PM me with a very good case for your character to have one.
Posting
- Godmoding. Don't do it. It is unfair to other members. You control your character(s) and only your character(s), no one elses.
- No one liners please. Try to at least post a paragraph for each reply. I understand that people get stuck on what to write, it happens to everyone, but I'm sure you can manage more than, "Bob agreed with what Babra said and smiled."
- Please don't use chat speak whilst in character, I don't mind an occasional lol or brb or gtg in your out of character posts but don't go mad.
- Clearly mark your topic with an 'R' if it is going to contain mature themes because not everyone wants to read that stuff.
- Always post in third person. For example: 'Sirius waved at James. "Hey Prongs!" he called.' and not 'I waved at James. "Hey Prongs!" I called.'
Other Stuff
- Remember that there are other people that use this board so have some respect for them.
- Please keep avatars at 100x100 or less and signatures below 550x300. Anything bigger and an admin will ask you to change it.
- There is only one place on this board that needs a password; the Kitchens. The password will be given to you as a reward for advertising our board. When you post an advert on another board make sure you type the name of the character you play on this board in the post then PM me the link and I will send you the password in return. If you have any questions about this please waste no time in PMing me.
- Finally and definately most importantly, have fun!
