you can sign up with any name you want, but once you decide on your characters name, please change your display name. please change your name accordingly and make sure that your display name is all CAPITALS, first and last names are requires, middle is optional, and please do not put punctuation in your display name. as for how many characters you can have, you can have as many as you'd like, but we ask they aren't all female since we would like to keep our ratio even. if the ratio is 5:1 or higher, there will be a ban placed on female characters.
``applying
on the note of applying, please post your application within 5 days of registering. also, please fill out the application carefully and do not change the code. we'd also like for people to use people as play bys, and not drawn characters, since this is a real life RP and we'd like real people. do not try to pass off a 30 year old character as a 22 year old, unless the admins give it the go ahead, please. please give your characters personality traits that will be unique and interesting, so that other people will want to post with you.
``graphics
we would love everyone on this site (and by love, i mean require) everyone to have a 150X200 avatar and a signature of their choice, as long as it does not exceed a width of 450 pixels. if you can't make graphics, there is a graphics board where you can request some and people are always willing to oblige. if you can't get someone on here to do it, go to a site such as CAUTION. you have to join, but it's worth it.
``activity
we will not be posting activity checks but we would like for people to at least log on once a week unless they post an absence. people who do not log in for two weeks will most likely be deleted, along with their character(s). You may have as many characters as you can handle, but if you choose to make more than one, try to make one boy for every two girl characters you have.
``roleplaying
we know everyone has a bad day every now and then, but on how we do, we have a posting minimum of 350 words a post. the staff will be paying attention to those who consistently do not make the word minimum, and if we catch this, we will talk to you. we are an intermediate to advanced role play site, so try to keep on par with the minimum.
``anything else
