These are site-wide rules. There are no acceptions unless said directly by Sunny. Failure to comply with rules shall result in warning bar or, in rare cases, ban from the site. Ensure you check up on the rules often, as they are likely to change over time. Warnings will be administered by the admin, but cases will nearly always be discussed with other staff.
1::No cursing (see link for accepted terms), name calling, or inappropriate language of any kind
2::No sexual themes other than kissing. Rape and molest are also highly discouraged
3::Remember your manners; no one likes people that are jerks
4::NO COPYING. This includes site themes, plots, and RPG ideas
5::Don't RolePlay Tribes Of Elements outside of the site, or in the RPGs
6::Admin's word is law. I don't care if your besties with a staffie or somthing, you still need to follow the rules and listen to Sunny's advice/demandsespecially if she says she wants cookie dough
7::Never tell someone your full name, age, address, or family's age, address, full name, etc. This is for your own safety
8::Killing off your character before reaching the post count rank of death is not permitted. The only time this will happen is if there is a purpose and/or you have permission from Sunny
9::No spamming. This includes posting more than five times in a row in the shoutbox and double-posting
10::Please report any rule-breaking to Sunny. Staff will deal with the situation. If it's a minor rule, you may nicely tell them what they're doing, then still tell Sunny so it can be recorded
11::No phones, computers, or electronics of any type. Remember, this is set in a pre-evolved world, as the Tribes have everything they really need literally at their fingertips
12::You MAY NOT have powers or magical abilities other than what your tribe has. This includes being more powerful than your leaders, especially your Alpha Leader
13::No powerplaying, godmodding, or controlling things that, naturally, you couldn't control. This does not include other animals, but remember to give the animals a personality they would have
14::No tribe-hopping. That means you can't go from one tribe to another without my permission.
15::One character per account. If you want to make another character, make another account. YOU MAY NOT RP AN ACCOUNT OF YOURS ON A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE BORED!
16::Be honest and respectful to all players. If you're having problems with someone, please tell Sunny
17::Do not link another site or advertise out of the advertisement board. If someone asked you for a link or you would like to inform ONE PERSON of it (no mass PMing) then you may PM it to them
18::Muse or you lose. We may be an all-level RPG site, but we expect you to at least try and RP correctly. This goes for staff especially, as being of a high rank should give you a reason to challenge your writing skills at all times and improve in every thread
19::Stay engaged. Try not to go inactive unless you're going on a trip. You can always ask another RPer if you'd like to start a thread with someone.
19.5::Accounts that haven't been online in more than two weeks without excuse are considered inactive. Accounts inactive for more than two months without excuse will be removed from all groups and added to the TO-BE DELETED group. If the account is still inactive after a three days in that group, it will be added to UNUSED. The only way to get that account back is to PM me personally and tell me EXACTLY how you're going to maintain activity now.
20::No crossing Tribe Borders unless you have direct permission from Sunny, your tribe is starting a battle, or you're on your way to a Meeting in an official Meeting thread.
21::OOC posts belong in the OOC Boards. You may have only up to three all-OOC posts per thread in total from all players combined. To signal the use of OOC, surround your OOC text by brackets [], parentheses (), or the Absolute Value signs ||
22::DON'T ROLEPLAY WITH YOURSELF!! Please ask me if you have questions as to why. I wont judge you for asking.
23::Ask Sunny or another staffer if you're unsure about something, as it is possible you could be breaking the rules if you do something you weren't supposed to, but had no idea. We're always here to help
