`REGISTRATION!

[/color][/font][/b]
IN REGARDS TO REGISTERING IT IS VERY SIMPLE ACTUALLY. FIRST OF ALL, YOU SHOULD KNOW TO REGISTER WITH A CHARACTERS FIRST, MIDDLE, AND LAST NAME WITH IT ALL LOWERCASE. IF YOU WANT A CANON, RESERVE ONE! BECAUSE OTHERWISE IT'S UP FOR WHOMEVER TO TAKE. FILL OUT THE APP AND POST IT AND THE STAFF WILL LOOK IT OVER - NO POSTING IF YOU AREN'T ACCEPTED - PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD REALLY. OTHERWISE, YOU SHOULD BE GOOD. WE ASK THAT FOR EVERY TWO FEMALES YOU MAKE, YOU MAKE A MALE CHARACTER NEXT. AND MAKE SURE YOU DON'T TAKE ON TOO MANY CHARACTERS. KAY? KAY.

`CHATTERBOX![/color][/font][/b]
THE RULES OF THE CHATTERBOX ARE QUITE SIMPLE REALLY. MEMBERS, BE NICE TO OTHER MEMBERS AND ESPECIALLY TO GUESTS. DON'T FREAK THEM OUT, BECAUSE THEY MAY NOT WANT TO JOIN IF YOU SCARE THEM! SO DON'T BE TOO BIG AN IDIOT WHEN THERE'S A GUEST IN THE CHATTER, KAY? THANKS. GUESTS ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO USE THE CHATTERBOX, BUT PLEASE DO NOT BASH OUR SITE, OUR MEMBERS, OR ADVERTISE IN THE CHATTER BECAUSE IT IS NOT NICE AND ANY OF THESE WILL GET YOUR IP IMMEDIATELY BANNED FROM THE SITE.

`ROLEPLAYING![/color][/font][/b]
AAAAAH THE THING YOU HAVE ALL COME TO DO EH? WELL, YOU WANTED TO KNOW RIGHT? OKAY, HERE IT IS. WRITE ONLY IN THIRD PERSON UNLESS YOU ASK THE OTHER PEOPLE YOU ARE PLAYING WITH IN SAID THREAD IF YOU CAN DO OTHERWISE, BECAUSE IT CAN GET RATHER HARD TO REPLY TO A BUNCH OF THOUGHTS IF THAT'S ALL THERE IS. WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO PLAY WITH YOUR OWN CHARACTERS. I KNOW IT SOUNDS ODD, BUT IF YOU MAKE A THREAD JUST FOR YOUR CHARACTERS EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, IT REALLY HELPS TO BUILD IDEAS. WE DO HAVE A WORD COUNT! SORRY, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE NEEDED. BUT IT'S ALRIGHT! BECAUSE OUR WORD COUNT IS ONLY 300 WORDS. AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, IT'S NOT REALLY HARD TO PUSH OUT THAT MUCH, OUR ADMINS WILL NORMALLY DO AROUND SEVEN HUNDRED FOR AN UNINSPIRED POST, SO IT'S FAIR. WE UNDERSTAND IF SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T PUSH OUT THAT MUCH, IN SUCH CASES WE URGE YOU TO WARN THE OTHERS IN THE THREAD BEFORE HAND - OR, ALTERNATELY, WE WILL ALSO ALLOW WHAT WE LIKE TO CALL 'SHORT-ANSWER-THREADS' WHICH ARE THREADS WITHOUT AN ACTUAL PLOT AND WITHOUT A WORD COUNT. THOUGH YOU SHOULDN'T DO THEM ALL THE TIME, EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE IT'S NICE. AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT!

`GODMODE![/color][/font][/b]
THIS IS SOMETHING WE CAN'T STAND. (THE SECRET PASSWORD IS CARROTS) YOU ARE NO GOD AND IF YOUR CHARACTER GETS TOO MARY-SUE, GARY-STU OR GOD-LIKE, THEN WE WILL REQUIRE YOU TO MAKE A NEW CHARACTER. YEAH, WE'RE JERKS LIKE THAT, BUT NOBODY CAN PLAY WITH PERFECT CHARACTERS OR GODS, SO WE HAVE A LIMIT THERE. FOR THAT REASON, WE DON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE SPECIAL THING ABOUT THEM. IF YOU ARE EXCEPTIONAL AT THE ARTS, YOU SHOULD BE HORRIBLE AT SPORTS, ETC.

`GRAPHICS![/color][/font][/b]
SIGNATURES SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN 450 PIXELS WIDE, AND 600 TALL. THIS INCLUDES TEXT AND IMAGES. POSTING IMAGES YOU ASK? WELL, THE SAME WIDTH APPLIES - 45O PIXELS. AND LESS THAN 400 PIXELS HEIGHT FOR POSTED IMAGES, PLEASE. THEY REALLY AREN'T HARD TO EDIT - SYD CAN DO IT IF YOU NEED. AVATARS ARE 100X100 AND WE WOULD LIKE EVERY AVATAR TO BE THIS SIZE. IF YOU CAN'T FIND ANY THAT ARE THIS SIZE OR SOMETHING, ASK SOMEONE ELSE ON THE SITE WHO MAKES GRAPHICS. THANK YOU!

`CREDITS![/color][/font][/b]
THESE RULES WERE MADE BY JENNA AKA _POTENTIALBEAUTY OF CAUTION 2.0 AND SHE LOVES THAT YOU'RE USING THEM, BUT SHE HAS A FEW RULES. LEAVE THE CREDIT ON OR SHE WILL COME AND FIND YOU, LINK HER TO THE SITE WHERE YOU USE THEM BECAUSE SHE'LL LOVE YOU, AND MAKE SURE PEOPLE KNOW THAT WHEN THEY READ THESE RULES, SHE'S A BAMF! K? K. SOUNDS GREAT RIGHT? I KNOW! AND JUST ONE MORE LITTLE THING! YOU SHOULD EDIT THESE RULES A BIT TO MAKE SURE THEY FIT YOUR SITE, COLORS WORD COUNT ETC. AND SO EDITS WERE MADE BY SYD![/center]
