Eyy! So you enjoyed the overall look of me site enough to come look at the almighty rules? Please note that I didn't write these for my health and, so, my intention is that everyone reads them. They really aren't difficult requests, so please abide and don't question any rules listed. Also, if you have any questions or regards just hit me up. And now, what you've all been waiting for, the infamous yet necessarily amazing and fabulous (I'm running out of adjectives) rules!
Let's set the record straight right up front. If you want to be a canon character, please act like the character would. I highly doubt that Sirius Black would go frolic in the flowers with Rems. Also, I'm not a fan of the Siri/Rem thing so keep that in mind. I'm fine with originals, however, I don't want them out-numbering the Canons so keep in mind that I might close originals from time to time. House rivalry is a key issue that I see many sites faltering to accomplish. Don't ask me to be in Slytherin when you have an undying love for Gryffindor. Ah, Mary-Sue. I almost forgot the lovely lady *blinded by beauty* If you have yet to meet Mary-Sue, perhaps you'd consider clicking the little red 'X' on the upper right hand corner of the screen. Trust me when I say that I'll be eliminating every Original Character Mary-Sue so don't make your person flawless. No one can be pure Veela or some shit because you have to be part human to attend Hogwarts. :]
Posting
Absolutely, positively no one-liners when you're posting in character. When I see them, I shiver. I shake! I do my best to refrain from calling the ghost busters. Just don't do it. If you're scratching your head and wondering why, again, refer to the little red 'X' on the upper right hand corner of your screen. It should answer your question. If you can't already tell, I don't mind foul language but keep it from being a large habit. All too often I see the potty-mouths with fuck every other word. It doesn't make you look cool. Ouu, if you haven't already, please scroll down a little bit. There's a button that will be your new best friend in the entire universe. Its name is Spell Check and the wonder of it is that it can save you from looking like a complete idiot. Use this tool! It's been provided for a reason. Now about naughtiness; you can do whatever the hell your raging-hormone teenager likes, but make sure you have a warning on the title.
Activity
*shivershake* This is the one thing that gets every single site at one point or another. Real life is a pain in the ass and every so often people need to take breaks and leaves and whatever. All I'm asking for a minimum is that you at least post four times a week. I don't think that's unreasonable. I'll apply offenses as I see fit, when ever I set a standard, I'm always the one to forget to apply the punishment. If you would like to be a canon character, please make sure that you can stay active. Especially those canons that are particularly needed for the plot. If you're gone a while without posting, I'll pester you with a PM and E-Mail. There's a place to post your absence so please have the courtesy of taking three seconds out of your day to post there. Thanks. When you go to fill out an application, tell me that you've breezed through the rules.
I can't really think of anything else at the moment, brain fart really. If you want something added or you want to contact me with a question, then you know where to find me.[/center]
