Rules

Its high time I write out the rules. I’ve been meaning to them since… forever…

Anywho… I must start.

1)Have fun! Thats the point of the RP and if your not having fun then just say. Say at let me know and I'll help you have fun. Thats what I'm here for

2)If you must swear don’t put s**t, that’s useless and stupid. If your gonna swear, swear there’s no point of putting s**t. We know what it means.

3)Use your head, don’t suddenly appear in Diagon Alley after a Herbology lessons. Diagon Alley is full days journey by train.

4)Lessons:

I)Teachers must post a lesson and let it run for up to a minimum of four pages

II)Students: You attend all lessons but! If there is a lesson that hasn’t got a teacher, you can still RP elsewhere, saying something like ‘Oh I’ve got History of Magic Homework,’ So basically, if there is a lesson without a teacher you still RP as if there is a lesson but you don’t post in the classroom, if you catch what I’m saying.

III) The teachers will not post EVERY lesson. Think about it, if you did, that’s all you’d post in. I like to think that there are other lessons in between each other lessons, which haven’t had a topic made for them.




5)There is no WAY, we will let you be an animagus, UNLESS you confirm it with an Admin first, the same goes for any other magical ability. Also no cross breeds of creatures will be allowed, e.g. half-vampire.

6)Remember, this site is rated 12A, so keep it to that. If you want to know what would be allowed and what wouldn’t be allowed [URL=http://www.bbfc.co.uk/classification/c_12.php]click here[/URL]

7)Exchange Students

Exchange Students will be allowed very occaisonally, if there is already someone from a country and someone else wants to be an exchange student from the same country then you;ll have to pick another one.

Also, exchange students will only be picked very infrequently, for example one in every twenty new students, otherwise the school would be flooded with exchange students.

Oh yes, and the reason as to why you have moved to Hogwarts must be a good enough reason.


8) Mary/Gary Stus

Lumos Dissendium describe Mary/Gary Stus as

'a character who is the author in disguise. Normally a Gary Stu/Mary Sue is the hero of the story, all the character fall in love with him/her, she is outrageously fabulous and beautiful and powerful. Mary Sue stories are basically elaborate fantasies wherein the author gets to pretend that s/he is magical'

So in other words, this is a no no! Be creative in your character, for more information, see my Roleplaying guide in the help forum.'

9) This is mainly for the students, Your family all dying tragically is not allowed. I don't mind a few dying as there is a war on. But the reason for dying must be good and it must affect your characters story.

10)There is no set size for Avatars or signitures, however if the sig or avatar is too big you will hear from us.


11) On another avatar/sig related note. All sigs and avatars must have some connection with your actual character. Therefore I dont want to be seeing any Manchester United avatars or The Simpsons Signatures

12)PLOTS, If you want your character to have part in the plot or you have an idea for a plot involving your characters and others then pm myself or Lord Voldemort. The Likleyhood is we will agree to it as long as it is fairly decent. We may have to make changes as well for the plot to work.

Regarding Applications.

1)A application must be fully filled out before you will be accepted.

2)An application must contain correct punctuation and grammar. We accept that not everyone has perfect spelling but we assume that you will spell check your application.

3)All applications must include detailed answers, otherwise there is little chance you will be accepted.

4)All applications must have a first and second name. Applications with neither of these things will be rejected.

5)We reserve the right to reject any application which we feel is not up to par.

Voldy's Ammendments annotherwords the general rules.

1. Even though we take swearing as ok here don't make a habit of it i don't want to see fuck this f*** that here there and everywhere.

2. I don't want any racists, or discriminating abuse on this site as far as im concerened that is an instant dismissal! IC (Thats In Character for the miniute few that may not know) is a little more ok but not in extreames. OC i don't want to be reading anything of the sort.

3. OOC posting in IC topics is a reral problem here well i'm beging to get fed up with it. You'll get a verbal warning either by post or PM and then the warn system kicks in.

4. Here, the Admin is THE MAN (Thinking school of rock here) if we say something thats the way it is no questions asked.

For now thats it but more rules may be added. Your evil but what-everness.
