SITES RULES
Please read and follow.
001. Registering
This is the first major step in this site, becoming a member. When you register be sure you activate your account. I will check on these every few weeks to make sure new members have done so. Also, go straight to your profile and modify your display name to the first and last name of your character. Middle can be included.
Ex. Lily L. Potter, Lily Potter, Lily Luna Potter – RIGHT
_Lily_, lilylpotter – WRONG
002. Information
You are already reading the rules, which is a perfect start, but you need to be sure that you read all the given information. This is all very important and you need to be sure that you know what you are doing. Please be sure you read it all.
003. Characters
This site has a four character limit. All the characters must be kept active and the gender must be equal also. It does not matter the house, but if we start getting to many of one house or more adults then students, their will be restrictions put on the characters. If you have a male and female character, you can not have them dating, but they can be brother and sister and such, but I ask that you allow others to play the siblings. You must wait until you are accepted before you can begin Role Playing.
004. Role Playing
No God-Mode, Powerplaying, or Mary & Gary Sues! God-Mode is where your character acts indestructible, able to fight and win anything. It is not allowed! Powerplaying is where you control a person’s character, where is be words or actions. It is not allowed! Mary Sue and Gary Sue are perfect characters with no flaws. This will be stopped when the staff is going over your character. All roleplaying takes place in third person, not first, but third person. There is a word count 100 Words, which is very easy to make if you think about it. You need to match the other person post as best as you can. It is very annoying it see a 124 word post in response to a 500 word post. Be active and be sure you use good spelling and grammar, along with good punctuation. If I see problems with this and can’t understand your writing, then I will have to do something about this.
005. Inside and Outside Hogwarts
There are no restrictions on kids inside the Hogwarts castle, except for the Restricted section of the Library. Children found in this section will receive punishment and also 20 points from their house. The forbidden forest is also off limits and with each post, five points will be taken from the houses. No child in first or second year are allowed to enter Hogsmeade, if this is found then you will also be punished and 20 points will be taken from your house.
006. Advertising
There is no advertising allowed outside of the advertisement board. Do not put links in your name or in your signature. The only place for advertisement is in the advertisement board.
007. Outside Problems
I ask that you do not bring your problems to the site and cause us problems. Sure, you can explain why you will be away, but please do not talk about it everywhere you go, there is no point in it.
All this are very simple to follow and I ask that you please keep to them.
