here lie the rules that make up save our souls. without rules, this place would be chaos. so be sure to read through every one of them. we'll try not to make it too long!
if you like our site and want to join, then please do! when you register, your account name can be whatever you want it to be, as long as you can remember it. once you've registered, please change your name to your characters full name, all lowercase. for example, bethany noelle james.
when you register for this site, you are telling us that you're committing to this site and plan to stay. so please, don't join then leave the next day. if you need to leave, post in the absence board. if you don't, and an activity check comes up, we will take it as you leaving for good and delete your character(s).
please post with the application that was given to you. if you do not use our application, your post will be ignored until you fix this problem.
fill out the application to the best of your abilities, so we know as much about your character as we can possibly imagine. fill it out correctly and with care.
once you've submitted your application, one of the admins will look it over as soon as we possibly can. so please, don't send us messages everyday about you finishing your application. we, too, have lives and it may take a day or so to get to your application.
no one is perfect, we all know that. everyone has their flaws, their strengths, their weakness.. so don't try to make a perfect character. even superman has a weakness. so, i cannot stress this enough, no perfect characters!
we know that pregnancies happen, along with suicides, but we can't have every female character expecting a child, or everyone wanting to kill themselves off. we also can't have a thousand of psychos trying to kill people off. yes, this is a hunger games roleplay and there's bound to be some psychos, but not a thousand and one. so please, be realistic.
when choosing a playby, first look at our face claim thread, so you know who is available and who isn't. also, no anime characters or anything like that. only real people, and known ones at that. so no random myspace, or facebook, people. yes, you can have the rather well known ones. i ask that you don't use the 'scene' playbys, unless making a capitol character. most people in panem, excluding the capitol, doesn't dress very eccentric. if you want to use a person with multi-colored hair or a ton of piercings, make a capitol character.
playbys that are banned are: lara jade, zoe kimball, and frieda rose. they do not want their pictures used, so we are going to respect that and not use them.
our character limit is seven. if you want more than seven characters, please PM one of the admins.
image sizes on our board CAN NOT STRETCH THE BOARD. if it stretches the board, i will delete the image. whether it's on your profile, plot page, a thread, anything. i will delete it and you will have to get another image. icons can't be any louder than 150x200. signatures cannot be any bigger than 550x300.
we do have a word count here. it's 150 words, minimum. that's not a lot at all, so be sure to write atleast that, or more. we'd love if you would go all out and write over that! but we care more about quality, not quantity. so if you can only write 150 words, then don't feel pressured to write more.
when you're roleplaying, try to match the post that the other person wrote. if they wrote a 500 word count post, try to meet that goal. if you can't, it's okay, just try your best. it's only fair to your fellow roleplayer.
no one-liners. that much is obvious by now.
please, i can't stress this enough, no slang words! slang words are things such as 'lol,' 'jk,' 'omg.' and no using numbers or anything in your words like 't077@11y!' that's obnoxious and no one can read it.
make sure your grammar is at its best. if you misspell something, it's okay. we do have a spell check button, please use it.
godmodding is forbidden. if we see it, you will be contacted. the only way you can godmod here is if you have permission from the person you're roleplaying with.
thread templates aren't a must, but they are encouraged. they make everything look pretty, so you should give them a try! (;
this site is pg-13, so we stay within the proboards terms. yes, there will be violence and cussing and whatnot, but nothing too mature will be permitted. want to roleplay that? take it to an instant messenger or to pms.
if you have not posted in thirty days, your account(s) will be deleted. unless you have talked to one of the admins, or posted in the absence thread. and it can't be some 'oh, i haven't had muse.' yes, i get some days we don't have muse, but if you haven't posted within thirty days, you will be deleted. some things you don't have control over, so if that happens, just post in the absence thread.
lastly, have fun and enjoy your time on save our souls!
