The Next Adventure Rules!
[/size] [/center]General
• As we learned when we were little, be nice! Treat others as you would like to be treated and ensure that all conflict stays between characters. If conflict does arise, message an admin and have them sort out said conflict rather than getting involved.
• No godmoding. This means you can't control another person's character at all. The thoughts, feelings, actions, dialogue, etc. of another character is to the discretion of the owner.
• Do not post as a character from a different account. If you’ve got both Draco and Hermione, let’s say, it would be unfitting for you to be on Draco’s account and post as Hermione.
• As stated by proboards, Drugs, suicide, rape, incest, adult/student relationships, cutting, teenage pregnancy- this is including teenage fathers, and/or child/animal abuse are not allowed here. However, if one of these things are in a characters history, it might be acceptable. If you're adding something from the above, please consult the admin before you do.
• No sexual content in threads, this site is clean of that! However, if you really want to, then it is possible to continue through private message.
• There is no word limit but we do ask that there are no two liners. A good couple of paragraphs please. We will warn you if we think you're lacking.
• There is no character limit but if we think you can't handle the amount of characters you have will will warn you before asking you to delete some.
• All characters made should have their first and last at least (middle names can be included too) as their display name with Capital's at the beginning. This keeps the site tidy.
• You're not allowed to make a plot page until your character has been sorted. There is no point in figuring out plots before the character has been accepted since there is a chance it won't be.
• Have fun! No Mary Sue’s or Gary Stu’s though! Your character can’t be perfect, have flaws, embrace them!
EDIT.
- We have also decided, after some debate, that time travelling characters are not allowed on the site. We feel that this is because, similar to a seer, they would know far too much about the future. We also believe that this kind of character would become to central to the plot which would be unfair to other Role Players.
Plot
• Nobody can start a big fight except a mod. Nobody can plan one without the consent from a mod. The only one someone can start a fight is if it's in a bar/shop/building they own and it's within the people already in there.
• No students can be in fights unless they have the consent of a mod because realistically, they wouldn't be anywhere near the fight unless they had a good reason. They would be in Hogwarts.
•Only have characters in the fight who are likely to be there. Don't just chuck in everyone you have. It's unrealistic and messy. If this can't be followed we will put a character limit on fights.
• Don't join a fight if it's unlikely you'll be able to continue. We're limiting fight threads to two weeks so that they don't drag on. There are no exception for this. If you're not going to be able to commit, don't join it.
• You're not allowed to kill or badly injury any character without the consent of the person who owns that character. No werewolf can bite someone without the consent and so on.
• You're not allowed to plan a raid on a opposite area without the consent of an admin.
• If you own a building/shop/bar you can choose which allegiance it's on but once you've chosen you can't change without the consent of an admin and a good reason. You also can't act as if a building that belongs to a side doesn't.
Once you've read the rules please message an admin stating that you've done just that. We won't accept your character until you've read the rules!
