Ok, here they are, the rules that help me govern this fine site ^^ If you follow them, all will be well. If not....

1 warning = 25% warning level
2 warnings = 50% warning level
3 warnings = 75% warning level and a 7 day ban
4 warnings = 100% warning level and a 30 day ban
If you haven't learned your lesson after that (and I'd be shocked if you hadn't) you will recieve a life-long ban.

The Rulez ~

1 - Nothing Racist, Sexist, Or Anything That Could Hurt People In General WHATSOEVER. I feel very strongly about these subjects and I will not hesitate to jump to a third-level warning and 7-day ban to anyone guilty of this.

-- However, if a character in a story is -for the purpose of the story ONLY- I'll let it slide. For example, the manga Hellsing involves Nazi werewolves as the bad guys; this obviously doesn't mean the author must be a Nazi and therefore they would not be punished for their story. Creative liscense will be taken into account.

2 - I don't mind "in character" swearing and I don't mind a little bit in chat. However, if it gets out of control you'll be asked to stop.

3 - Please keep all stories in their proper categories. If you're not sure what category a story should be in, just look at the setting and that should give you a good indication. If not, message a staff member and they'll tell you.

4 - Please only RP in the RPing section. This site is for one-person stories and to keep everything organized it would be best if everything stayed simple.

5 - Please keep chat to the chat board except for chat related to a particular story. This will help keep the boards from becoming clogged with spam.

That's all for now, but keep checking back from time to time just in case. ^.^
If you start to get a lot of short stories piling up (6 or more), or your story has had 4 or more separate chapters posted, message a staff member to have a subboard made for your stories in their appropriate board. The subboard will be titled with your name and restricted to your stories and chat about your stories. If you would like, you can also allow RPing based on your story (but only your story) in your subboard.

Thank you and enjoy the site! =D
