(( rules ))

[JESSEBARBIE]

1)) FOLLOW THE DAMN RULES i do make these rules for a reason and i do expect them to be followed. it's important to keep the balance on the site. it's also about respect. just please do what i ask. thanks.

2)) BE RESPECTFUL there's nothing worse than someone who joins a site just to be rude. please respect the other members of the site and the tranquility of the atmosphere. anyone who is disrespectful with get a warning first. but after that first warning, you will be banned for two weeks if you violate again. and the third time, i'll just kick you off the site. i'd rather lose a member than to have a hostile enviroment here. so, please, be nice to one another and to me and we'll all get along great!!

3)) NO GODMODDING along with rule number two, be respectful and don't try and play other people's characters in anyway. they aren't yours so you have no right to say what their actions are. stick with your own characters.

4)) TIME SKIP SEXXXY SCENES yes, i am going to be labeling this site as mature. but still, i have to keep with the proboards rules and such. i recently got a message saying that no adult stuff of that nature can be allowed even in the private messaging. therefore, please just time skip or do that in your own emails or ims elsewhere. if your characters have sex, i'm fine with that! this site would be weird without it. but if you want to get into the actual act, please do not do it anywhere on this site, okay? otherwise we won't be able to stay alive. i am allowing like making out and things like that as well as swear words and violent situations. just use your good judgement, mkay? also, make sure you know proboards' terms of service so we don't violate anything

5)) BE A DECENT POSTER though this site has no forced application, we do hold standards. if you join, please don't be a two sentance poster. i would like to see that every post outside of the ooc and electronics areas is at least a decent paragraph. don't be lazy. and don't use text speak outside of those areas, either. use good grammar and try your hardest to post well for the rest of the people in your threads. it'd be nice if you also let someone know if you'll take an extra long time replying back to them

6)) DO YOUR NAME RIGHT all names on this board should be in all uppercase: FIRST MIDDLE LAST. if everyone does it the same, it just makes the board look neater

7)) FOLLOW THE GRAPHICS RULES and those are that i would love it if you wouldn't stretch the board. if i notice you are, i will take the image down that is doing so. and avatars can be no larger than 150x250. don't even try to go bigger, the board won't let you

8)) HAVE FUN this is a fun site, afterall. don't get so caught up in being serious. we want to be able to be silly here, too. it's an exciting enviroment. so have fun with your little playground of characters and do it with respect to me and the rest of the members

Just to make sure all of these rules have been read, the secret phrase is---

"Lookin' like diamonds."
