This site is based on 1st Harry Potter book when posting keep it in your mind.
1. All posts must be in third person format. Nothing drives me crazier then when people post in first person!
Example
First Person (Do not do): I walked over to the fireplace and took out the letter. Sighing I tossed it into the roaring fire.
Third Person (Proper way to post): Jennifer walked over to the huge fireplace just at the other end of the huge common room. With the letter from her brother in hand, she tossed it into the roaring fire.
2. Try to post long erm...posts. We don't want to see one-word answers! Be creative.
3. No power playing. What this mean is you cannot control other peoples character. This will not be tolerated in any way!
4. You may have as many characters as you able to handle. You can be both a Professor and Students.
5. O.O.C. (Out of Character) post should be keep to a minimum in RPG areas. When you do post an O.O.C. comment, you must use these brackets (( )).
6. We are going to ask you that you have an avatar with your characters picture on it. This just makes it easier when knowing what your character looks like. If you are unsure or don’t know how to make one please feel free to contact me or any other admin. We are more then willing to help out!
7. When applying for an original character, they must be original. We don’t want to see any Lestat DeLioncourts , Drew Barrymores or Dora the Explores. You can use these characters as your avatar and such, just please do not name and base your character on anyone famous or fictional. Of course, this doesn’t apply to Canon Characters!
8. No characters related to canon characters that are original. What we mean by this is no lost brother or cousin of Harry Potter and such.
9. Also, when applying for original character these following things will not be excepted (unless otherwise asked and approved my myself or other adminds).
Veelas’, Metamorphmagus’, Animagus’, Elf, Werewolf, Vampire or any other rare qualities.
10.Please, please run your post through a spell check. A few mis-spelling here are there is o.k., no one is perfect, but when your post is so riddle with mis-typing and spelling errors it make it imposable to read will not be tolerated!
11. If you want to make a character related to ANY canon character (ie. A Black, Potter, Weasley, Granger) you must ask permission from canon character first! (because I dont want ANY siblings on this, its unlogical and totally barbaric)
12. Secret Word (You'll need it in sorting
) Werewolf
13. You should have a siggy and it shouldn't be too big.
14. You should write these things in your sig.
1st: Your House
2nd:Your Wand
3rd: Your Pet
15. And finally you are to treat everyone with respect! We shouldn’t have to get into detail with this!
I know these are a lot of rules, but one must have rules to establish a good role playing! Please keep in mind, we are pretty laid back people, and won’t go crazy about forcing every single one of these rules.
If you have any problem with these rules. Feel free to to talk about it to me or any other admin.
**Please note failure to play by these rules will subsequent banning! Adim and Mods have the right to add or change these rules when they see fit**
