sick and tired of incredulous complaints
I'm not going to make this complicated. Just a few simple rules here okay.
Follow them and you're safe.
001 REGISTERING. Do register with your desired character's first and last name all in CAPS. If you happen to be a returning member, just make the switch when you can. We won't kill you if you happen to register in lowercase letters. Nothing wrong with that, but we'll end up changing it, just for the record. So, don't. Register in all caps.
002 CREATING YOUR CHARACTER. Fill in one of the provided applications properly. We like detailed apps. They're not long and draggy applications, so don't complain. We're not particularly strict with apps but it'd be nice if you put in some effort into making it something interesting to read. It defines your character after all.
003 One thing we'd like to stress on. DO NOT post anywhere else until your application has been accepted. Really, we mean this. The secret phrase is: 'breaking the tradition, you fool.' There are only two apps with a specific location for this phase, so if you use one that doesn't have that then just post it at the bottom of your completed app.
004 RESPECT. This one word is probably the easiest thing to understand. Please do respect everyone here on the site. Don't go mocking members OOC or taunting them either. You may do that while roleplaying but not outside of. We will have your head if you don't respect everyone on the site, trust us well on this.
005 GRAPHICS. Each character HAS to be represented by a an anime character person only. NO DEVIANTART, FACEBOOK OR MYSPACE people either, please; unless you make ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that you have permission. There are loads to choose from. Your list is not restricted. Note that I will ask (*coughrequirecough*) that each account have an avatar and sig representing that character. If you cannot work with graphics yourself, ask someone on this site who can or visit CAUTION 2.0. You have to join the site, but its worth it in the end.
006 GRAPHIC SIZES. Your avatar may be up to 200x200 but no larger (if Proboards gives you grief let an admin know). It will be scaled down to the appropriate size if it's too big. Your signature may be as big as 400x200 or 400x300 and no larger. We don't want the page stretched or anything like it. It looks fugly otherwise. Also, no posting inappropriate images under your signature. You know exactly what we mean by 'inappropriate'. We will ban you without warning.
007 ADVERTISING. There is an advertising forum on here. Guest friendly and we don't ban sites from advertising. See how exceptionally generous and nice we are? So in return, we ask that you DO NOT advertise anywhere else other than in those forums. This includes in the cbox. No having your name in the cbox linked to a different site. We will also ban you. We're serious about this. No advertising through PMs either, savvy?
008 CBOX. Don't we all love the cbox? Good. So don't abuse it. Don't create trouble on the cbox. It's a place where you can chat nicely with everyone - whether you like them or not. No swearing or cursing on there. No advertising as well, like I mentioned above. Just treat the cbox nicely, alright?
009 RATING. This is a literate site. It is also rated PG-13. You know what that means. Yes, I know that can make things rather boring, but I don't believe that a site has to be rated M to be fun. Keep swearing to a bare minimum, no one speaks in 'swear language' so please don't start that. Thank you very much.
Meh. That's about it. Simple, no? Not too hard, are they?
Good. So let's try and keep things in order.
