Rules « Thread Started on Aug 31, 2008, 10:50pm »
1. This is a major rule but Characters from anything else, this is a Twilight Saga Site so if characters from buffy or something show up it will be deleted. and definitely no Harry Potter, there are far to many Harry Potter sites out there, and I do not this to turn into one. The actors can be used, but the characters can't.
2. No magic on the site this is vampires werewolves and humans. The vampires in this must stay true to the vampires in Twilight otherwise there will be problems. Please look in at the stuff on vampire and werewolf mythology for Twilight.
3. Celeb's can only be used once unless they are a canon character in two different shows, this means if someone uses Keira Knightley for their character no one else can use her.
4. No immortal characters, all characters have a weakness of some kind even if it is krypotnite. The way vampires dies varies from series to series so stay true to the series that your characters are from. The vampires in Twilight can destroy each other but it's never mentioned how until I figure it out please no vampire killing vampire things.
5. No God Moding, which includes control another person character, or making it so your character is immortal and can never get hurt. Even wolverine gets hurt even if it takes quite a bit and he does heal faster. This means you must wait for the person or people you are posting with to reply first before you do anything.
6. No Mary Sues, no perfect characters that attract everyone's attention no matter what they do. All characters have a good and bad side and no one looks perfect 100% of the time everyone has their bad moments. This includes Rosalie who is up there on the lines of perfect, she has had her bad moments and still does so keep that in mind
7. Details are nice but sex scenes and things of that nature keep to a bare minimum. Skip if possible. Admin's reserve rights to make passworded boards.
8. Respect everyone on the site they are here to have fun I don't want people having fights in the c-box. If people have problems with each other please pm each other and an admin about the problem so that it can get worked out in a reasonable manner.
9. Four lines or more for post, short posts get annoying quickly so try to have decent posts.
10.Models on Reserve can't be used by anyone else until the reservation expires
11. No Messenger speak in the RP area. So no LOL or anything like that. It gets annoying quickly and it isn't welcome on here.
12. Posts must be in the third person with he she, characters name, things like that. No second person "you" and no first person "I".
13. The rules may change as I want them to.
14. First offense against these will result in a warning if it continues you will be banned for a week or more depending on the offense. After that if the behavior continues you will be permenantly banned from the site. This means you e-mail and Ip address will be banned off of here and the c-box.
15. Please have a picture of your character in your profile some where in either your avatar or your signature or both.
16. Display names must match character name.
17. You can have as many characters as you want but they must be on separate accounts. And if you have more than one character you cant have your characters in relationships with each other try to be with other people characters.
18. If there is a character ban up do note it is temporary and to balance things out a bit. If there are allot of Senior, it will be closed until there are more of the younger grades.
19. Requested Characters do not fall under the ban on species because they have been requested of if someone will fill one of those you are fine.
20. Absolutely no vampire/werewolf romantic relationships unless you speak to the Admins (Alice and Bella). We have the final say on this matter and you must talk to the person first before you take part in this relationship.
21. All canon couplings must be honored, that means until after we know how the fourth book ends Bella is engaged to Edward. And that means anyone who is taken in the book is taken on the site. Jasper and Alice, Rosalie and Emmett and etc. There is a spot in information to check this out.
22. Werewolf imprinting is welcome if you have discussed it with the other person. But if you want the imprintee to become a vampire or is a vampire you must follow the procedure on rule 20.
23. Vampire powers must be discussed with the admins first. We will allow only so many of certain kinds of powers on the site. Jasper's, Alice's, Edward's and Jane's will have the highest limitations on them simply because they are the most popular and most manipulative. Carlisles ability to have resisted taking human lives is extraordinary so talk to an admin if you want something like that or a power for your vampire.
24. This goes with the god moding rule from earlier, but with Alice's powers I will talk to the person or people involved before hand. Edward's, Tanya's and one of the Volturi (need to look up name) can work if a thought is mention in the previous post with the exception of Bella. Jaspers will work if there are out of control emotions like Anger or fear he can calm the room if necessary. If this is not followed it will be considered god moding and you will recieve a warning.
25. Vampires can not change shape, that is werewolves only so no shape shifting vampires.
26. Vampires can read werewolves thoughts but not the other way around, werewolves can read other werewolves thoughts when they are in their wolf form.
27. Closed threads or threads meant for one other character are not to be replied to by anyone but that character. Only open threads can be replied to by anyone. This has become a problem on the site and will not be tolerated any longer you get three warnings on this and will be banned after the third offense.
We admins will offer suggestions for powers if you want your vampire to have a power we just have limitations due to there being an almost extreme amount of one or two powers and not much else. We can usually find something similar to what you want to have.
