RULES!
[/b]
[li] Proboards Terms of Service
[/li][li] Any violation of these rules could have us shut down.
WEXFORD'S RULES
[/li][li] CURSING: No curse words are allowed on this site, due to we could be shut down. No words are censored on this site because I, for one, don't believe in any censoring of the sort, but it's not worth having the site shut down over it. No: fuck, damn, damnit, cunt, goddamn, whore, bitch, son of a bitch, etc. If you would like to go 'Oh ffs' then that is fine. You can use other words to substitute as long as you're saying them in text and not abusing the rule.
[/li][li] RP POSTS: You must at least post two paragraphs when you post. No one-liners are allowed on this site. The only way you can get away with a one-liner is in the Recreation Room. We did not take off the posting count in Summerton stores so when you order you must RP your character buying so that your post will count.
[/li][li] VAMPIRES, WEREWOLVES, ETC.:This board is strictly a Harry Potter RPG. We know that vampires and werewolves are involved in the book series, but vampires were on the dark side and have been conquered during the dark war. Werewolves, however, can be acceptable to the site, but you must create a detailed description of the event, strengths, and weaknesses. Also it's impossible to be born a werewolf. You can only be bitten by a werewolf to become one.
[/li][li] CIGARETTES & DRUGS: No smoking is allowed nor are drugs. The talk of it is alright but no RPG smoking or drugs. We must act like we are 13 and not promote such things.
[/li][li] ALCOHOL: No alcoholic drinks / partying allowed. This could get us banned. I know some are older than 13, but we must act like we are 13 since the youngest age to join Proboards is 13 and we can not promote drinking, etc.
[/li][li] SEX: Sex is another thing not allowed on this site. This could have us shut down and no one wants to read your sex RPs. They can go somewhere else for that.
[/li][li] AGE: You can be any age starting out, but the oldest you can get is 18 for a student. As a staff member or working in Summerton you can be any age 19+.
[/li][li] SPAMMING: Do not spam the board with your name. We love you like the next person, but we don't want to see your name every time we click somewhere. Also, do not spam people with messages.
[/li][li] SITE PROMOTION: Do not promote your site or another site anywhere on this board besides the Recreation Room. Sure you can PM a friend to join your site, but don't PM every person about your site.
[/li][li] GROUPS: On a site I was on my friends and I had a little group called: The Sournois Boys. They called themselves that because everyone pretty much knew who they were. It is alright to have things like that as long as it doesn't get carried away. Don't go around the site wanting to make a group. Everyone has to be included and no one can be singled out.
[/li][li] CHARACTERS: You are limited to having four (4) characters on this site.
[/li][li] CANNON CHARACTERS (1): There is a limit to cannon characters. There is no 'Sirius Black' or 'Remus Lupin's' around the school. Your character can only be a descendent. If you want your character to have a middle name of like Something Sirius Black' that is alright.
[/li][li] CANNON CHARACTERS (2): If someone else already has the last name 'Black', 'Lupin', etc they have the rights to the family. You have to ask them to be apart of your family and let us know that it is okay with the original person.
[/li][li] SITE GRAPHICS: DON'T STEAL! You may not steal graphics from the site. Make sure that you credit the person who makes your graphics. Also the size for signatures are 500x400 pixels and avatars are 120x200 pixels. Any larger and you will receive a notice.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/li][/ul]
