General Rules:
Respect the admins / moderators as well as other members.
No stealing any plots, graphics, characters or anything from this site that doesn't belong to you.
For now, we're requiring that your display name Must be the first and last name of your character/Characters and each name meaning First, Middle, and Last name must be capitalized. For example: Lillith Wendy Wilson (that would be how the desplay name goes.)
Posting Rules:
There is no minum word requirement however with that said i would prefer that you do two or three sentincess.
No godmodding or powerplaying. Godmodding is where you're controlling someone else's character {you may only have permission to do this if they say you can through PM or any other means}. Powerplaying is when you write that your character is all powerful, which just doesn't happen.
Keep the subject of your posts suitable for the age of your character. Eleven and twelve year olds wouldn't run around getting pregant. If you have an older character, they can do more than wink and hold hands, of course, but keep it PG-13 as we do have younger readers here.
When posting with three or more people, try to post in turn. Ex. Person 1, 2, then 3. Then 1, 2, then 3. this way the other one doesnt feel left out.
Applications:
Please fill out the application provided as it includes all of the information we need.
On that note, please fill out the PROPER application. There are a few different ones for students, adults, underage children
If you're unsure of what house you're character will belong in, just leave that section blank in your application. An admin can figure out the right house for you if you fill in enough of their personality in the application. [This is especially for Beauxbatons & Firenze students.]
Once you've filled out your application, wait to be accepted. You may post in the Out of Character boards and claim your celebrity while you wait.
Characters:
You must have a first and last name. It gets confusing if there's twenty Davids or Samanthas running around the place {The only exception to this are Centaurs or other magical creatures & animals who only go by one name}.
You may have as many characters as you can handle and keep active.
Only one character per account only acception is if there is a mother and a kid younger then 8 years old or if they are twins like fred and gorge for example.
On that note, we accept all types of humans and magical creatures that are in the Harry Potter canon. So no changelings or faeries, but we do accept Centaurs, ghosts, regular animals, etc.
No Mary-Sues or Gary-Stus. Those kinds of characters are characters that are too perfect and don't have any flaws {and no, being too perfect isn't a flaw}. Everyone has their quirks and the most interesting you make your character with flaws and quirks, the more fun it will be to roleplay with and the more people will want to roleplay with you.
Teachers:
Professors are required to post at least one lesson per term [that's really not much <3]. It's up to you whether you put all the students into one lesson, or if you have different lessons for different years [ex. 1-4; 5-7]. If you don't post at least one lesson, your character will be 'fired' and will be unemployed [but not deleted].
Activity:
We understand that you may go inactive from time to time, but there's an Absenses board to tell us that you're leaving so you don't get deleted.
However, if you don't tell us that you're going on vacation, will be without the internet for a while, etc., don't get mad if you were deleted because we had an activity check. We're sorry if that happens, but feel free to just register again if you have returned. =D
CANON CHARACTERS: If you haven't posted IN CHARACTER in 42 days [six (6) weeks], your account will be 'unsorted' and later deleted if you don't return. This is because canons are very important to the plot, especially the trio and other important canons. <3
If you sign up and don't post anywhere in one month, your account will be deleted.
