The following rules are easy enough to follow and will make your role play experience the best it can be, so read them VERY CAREFULLY. You will be held responsible for breaking any of the following and action will be taken..........
Dead and Still Living RULES OF CONDUCT
Please Note:
We do know that the show has crazy amounts of sex, drugs and all the above. Since Proboards hosts for free, we must abide bu certain rules in order to keep within the bounds of the law. So you will not find the sex and drugs everywhere because you could be of age yes, but the person you are "sexin" could be 13 years old and that is CLEARLY a violation of the law. We do have mature boards for these types of rp's but we MUST have proof of age. Contact the admin for access.
1 - No discrimination or disrespect should be shown to other members of this community at any time, whether it be in a post or through PM. Any reports of this sort of 'bullying' will be handled with extreme measures.
2 - You may not have more than two identities unless approved by the administrator. If you decide to sign up for a main character at the time you are approved you may choose to either give up your original character or play both of them, but you cannot create multiple identities, we can see your ip address and if we consistently see two identities logging in from the same address we will delete the less used one. Also remember when picking the second character to choose someone of the opposite sex than your first character. This is to keep the male-female ratio even.
4 - Posts may not contain content promoting the use of pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, or promote any illegal activity. Illegal activity such as Vampire Blood can be used and a character can incorporate these things but they CANNOT promote the REAL USE or ANY REAL ILLEGAL ACTIVITY>
5 - Posts MUST be in English. Some words can be used in other languages for spells and such, but all else must be English.
6 - The signatures in your profile, must not exceed the size of our forum width (700px), if we find them too large we will either modify them, or ask you to modify them.
7 - You may not god mod. What is that you ask?? It means that you may not decide what any other person other than yourself, will do. So you can not say
Anna was walking down the street and saw Carl. Carl then came over to Anna and punched her in the eye.
All you need to say is..
Anna was walking down the street and saw Carl! Wondering to herself if Carl would come over or not, Anna stopped in her tracks.
8 - You may not kill off any character on the site or allow your character to kill themselves. It goes along with god modding, you can not do it! Unless that character says it is OK because they are deleting their character(which we DO NOT condone) or leaving the site! Or if a character leaves the site without warning and is a main part of a story line. You may not kill yourself off, we would rather you delete your character and say they disappeared but we do not want any posts containing suicide. Not at all!
9 - You MUST have a first and last name as your display name. Meaning you can not just be Joe or Alex. It should be Joe Smith or Alex Harrison. Unless you are a demon or vampire, who's names are usually one name. This also means that your username and display name are not always the same. My username is admin but my display name is Sookie Stackhouse! You can change this in your profile. Here is how (1)Click PROFILE at the top of the page just underneath the main banner (2)Of the clickable options, click MODIFY PROFILE (3)The fourth thing down *Display Name, that is where you type in the name of your character. (4)Scroll to the end of the page and click the modify profile button.
10 - Please use your character powers reasonably. For example; If you are a new Witch then you can not be teleporting and killing people with your mind. And so on....We will be monitoring these things with our wonderful admin team staff so we will know when this happens! Action will be taken!!!
- Due to international COPPA laws no one under the age of 13 is allowed onto a site like this. It is the law.
This site is not the only site out there like this. ALL forums have to apply this law to its users. No matter where you go on the internet, if you are under the age of 13, it is against the law. You have been warned and therefore are breaking the law if you sign up for an account and give a false birth date.
IT IS A MUST THAT ALL THESE RULES BE FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES. IF WE FIND ANY OF THE FOLLOWING BROKEN, YOU WILL RECEIVE A WARNING IN YOUR WARNING METER!!!!!!
WE IN NO WAY CLAIM THAT THE CANNON CHARACTERS ON THIS SITE ARE OUR OWN. NOR ARE WE AFFILIATED WITH THE SOOKIE STACKHOUSE SOUTHERN VAMPIRE MYSTERIES/ TRUE BLOOD/ CHARLAINE HARRIS BRAND. THEY ARE THE CREATION OF THE AMAZING CHARLAINE HARRIS. THIS IS A ROLE PLAY SITE BASED UPON THE SOOKIE STACKHOUSE UNIVERSE AND WE DO NOT CLAIM ANY CORE CONTENT TO BE OUR OWN.
