oh look, the rules
✿ I'm sure everybody knows how to behave like proper human beings, right? It's simple, really; if it's not allowed anywhere else, don't do it here, either. Be open-minded and help us maintain a friendly environment on the site!
✿ There's no word count or anything as far as IC posts are concerned, but give your partners enough to push the thread along, at the very least!
✿ Keep the Proboards TOS in mind when you make posts, both IC and OOC. Everything should be PG-13, including what you send out in PMs. Fade to black in a thread if you need to. Failure to follow this rule will result in bad, bad consequences for putting our site's existence in jeopardy!
✿ Because our setting is Japan, your account display name should read the "last name first name" of your character, if they have a Japanese name (Koizumi Risa), and "first name last name" if they have a foreign name, even if they are still Asian (Jay Park).
✿ Animangame faceclaims only, please. If you decide to use a face from a game, that's totally awesome - we do ask that you try and steer clear from the 3D animation graphics and go for the more fanart style. We won't kill you if you use the 3D ones, but it'd just be nice and fit more with the "feel" of the site.
✿ Be creative and avoid Mary Sue/Gary Stu characters!
✿ Profile icons are good ol' 100x100 in size so there's no need to worry about having to make anything fancy schmancy (time to dust off those icons you've been hoarding for years but can't use anymore thanks to fancy profiles!).
✿ Activity is pretty important 'cause that's what makes up the content of the site, yeah? Log in with all your accounts whenever you can, and maybe post in the forum games even when you have no muse? Create a new character should you have trouble with your current, but try not to abuse the system; make sure that your existing characters have already been posted with before you make more!
NOTE: If we notice you have some characters that you haven't been very active with IC-wise and you try to make another character, we will politely ask you to put a hold on the biography. Try not to argue with us - it's for the greater good (and that's the greatest good you're ever gonna get)!✿ Don't forget to let someone know if you're going to be gone for awhile! Your best bet is to post a farewell thread so eeeeeveryone will have a heads-up.
