Welcome To Queens New York « Thread Started on Feb 16, 2009, 6:35pm »
First off, Hello! There arn't alot of rules and I can promise you that they are not difficult. They are just the normal guidlines that help a site run smoothly. If you have any questions, feel free to pm an admin and we will certainly help you.
Site Rating: MATURE If you are the type of person that can get squeamish about sexual content or language than this site probably isn't for you. Although all mature boards should be marked with a [M] or an [R] in the title so those who don't preffer seeing them don't click them. There's always going to be cursing, and that is totally acceptable on this site, but please not every word out of a person's mouth is a curse word. Keep it realistic please.
Post Requirements: Minimum Two Paragraphs Now, I don't mean you have to write a whole novel. But by all means if you can go ahead and write to your hearts consent. But, one paragraph reply's are usually never fun. I understand that sometimes you can be museless, trust me I am the Queen of that and that's fine if you do. But please try your best to come up with interesting and replyable posts.
Pregnancy/Death type situations: I've been on plenty of sites where almost EVERYONE was getting pregnant and it got old really fast. So to keep that from happening, there will be a limit to how many kids there are on the site. Now of course, I'm not going to pick and choose who can get pregnant and who can't, but I can control the periods of time that people get pregnant. I don't want a gigantic baby boom where every girl has a child. You MUST ask an admin if your character can be pregnant and MUST have permission from both pregnancy partners. There have been incidents in the past where people never asked the other and it was a giant mess to clean up.
Death of a character must be discussed with an admin as well. We're not going to make you keep a character you don't want, but the death has to be reasonable and realistic. Not a piano falling out of the sky and crushing them or a rare skin eating disease that isn't contagious.
Respect: PLEASE respect everyone on the site. I'm going for a friendly environment and I hate when there's fighting going on between members. If there are In Character fights that's fine, but please don't take it personal and turn it into an OOC fight. If you have a problem, bring it to the admin and we will try our best to work it out with both parties. If it continues, suspension will be given, and if that does nothing, you will be banned. Don't make me do that please.
Requests: We are ALWAYS open for requests and suggestions. Anything you feel would make the site better or would help with activity, by all means let us know. We want to make you feel comfortable here, so anything to make that possible is welcome!
Admin: As the masters of powers and rulers of the world(Ha), we do have the final say in a decision. We're not hard people to get along with and put your needs first, but our decision is final. No one has the ability to override an admins decisions and those who think they do will surely be deleted and banned.
Profiles: ALL characters must have a profile to be accepted on the site. You are given one week after you post a profile to finish it if you havn't already before you are deleted. Fill out the application as directed and fill in as much information about your character as you wish. Make sure you supply enough information that we can get more than just a basic jist of your character.
Activity: PLEASE make sure that you are active on the site. We will have monthly activity checks and it is REQUIRED that you post there with a list of all the characters you play so that when we do the site sweep you're not accidentally deleted. If you are going to be away for a period of time, make sure you set an away just incase we have an Activity Check while you are gone and we don't delete you.
HAVE FUN: Must I really explain what this meannss?
