These are the rules for the ENTIRE site any breaches will result in warnings and bans;
Harrassment
Discrimination is not tolerated on this site what so ever this includes; Race, Colour, Relgion, Age, Sex, Etc, Etc...
Multiple Accounts
Having more then one account so you can RP with yourself is not fun, cool or a worth while thing to do as doing so will result in posts being reset.
Language
Please refrain from using text speak in your posts not everyone can understand it. By that, we mean sayin stf lik dis. r u gttin me? Its just frustrating.
Please try to keep swearing to a minimum we understand that in posts the character are put into situations where it just feels right to write a swear word or two but keep it to these must have situations and not used excesively.
Applications
Read the "getting started" before writing your application making sure that you can cover all bases, while leaving some blank spaces is ok as long as they are filled in before you start playing is ok, having half an application missing is not acceptable and will be declined without so much as a second look.
Character Relations
Its cool being related to somebody. Especially if their awesome. However, not every character you make is going to have relatives. Its rare for anybody to actually pass into rukongai and still have relations with their true family.
Humans are Alright being related to others because they haven't died yet. Quincy are basically extinct so they wouldn't have any relations. Arrancar are hollows and cant possibly have relations with others unless they retained their memories. However, this is also impossible because moving into Menos Grande stage removes all intellect and memories. This means those that become an Arrancar couldn't possibly have any relations that they know of.
Shinigami on the other hand, are somewhat complicated. Seeing as dying and entering soul society severs links between people, relations are very very limited. There is literally less than a 1% chance of ever meeting your true relatives again. However, that percentage can still occur.
The rules to character relations will be as follows. You can only have a relation with one single character to only one other character. so if the ones your trying to relate to already have a relation, you cannot join them. The likeliness is just too small.
This also means that if you have three characters and you want some to be related to another member, only TWO of them can. The rest cant relate to ANYBODY. only two relation links are allowed. However, if you own the characters in question, then they can all be related. But make sure its reasonable and in their character history.
You could also have a single character have both of your relation slots. Have a father and a sister or something. This does make full families harder to pull off with both a mother and father. Thats mainly because of the chances. You would be amazingly lucky to find even one of your relatives again let alone both of them and a sister or something.
Nevertheless, Marriage is blatantly a relation. What is written above is mainly for blood relations and is suppose dot be kept to a minimum because its so unlikely to happen. if you choose to be married and have a kid or something, then that's up to you and the other member.
Fake families are often found in the Rukongai and can be carried through into shinigami lives. However, this doesn't class as any relation slots so you can be related to as many people as you want in a "fake" family. The proper slots are made for blood relations.
If you do not write anything about relations in your history, then a link will not be made and we will ignore your relations.
Character Knowledge
there is a simple rule regarding your own character knowledge to another. There are multiple possible ways for your character to know another personal information such as name, age, tastes etc
The rule is that upon entering a thread, you know nothing of the other players unless you have RolePlayed with them before and that they have told you the info or you have seen it occur in front of you. If you say you have met them before, you have to have some kind of proof like a thread where you both fought etc.
You will also not know a character powers at all until you have fought them. Once they have been used, you will only know the ones that had been shown. If they had 4 but you saw 3 then you can only make reference to the three you saw.
Try to make this as realistic as possible or you will definatly be shunned by other members for not playing fairly
Role-Playing
No GODMODING at all, ever, God-moding is taking control of some-one elses character or making an attack hit. (For those needing a more obvious motion) "He stabbed her in the shoulder". (This is wrong, an acceptable way is) "He aimed a stab for her shoulder". You must always give your opponent the choice to block, dodge or take the hit.
Remember that your not a god. fighting somebody as strong as you will have a 50-50 chance to hit you. So dont dodge and block everything. This is a form of godmoding.
Don't spam posts (posting before your go or posting as a different character of which you own) to boost your posts as this will result in double the posts you made being reducted from your total posts.
When you role-play, you must always write in third person. Saying that YOU did it all isn't the right way to go about things. You need to state that HE or SHE did things. Your not your character exactly so you need to describe what THEIR doing not what YOUR doing. If you were, your posts would be full of descriptions about typing on a keyboard.
One Liners?
When Roleplaying, you need to be able to make a name for yourself. The easiest way to do that, is to write enough for your battles to be interesting. Yes, the more you write in both your applications and threads the better you will look. However, not writing enough will make you look like an idiot. People that write one sentence saying "I run forwards and hit you" are going to easily be booted from the site for pure idiocy. Thats because that line was in first person and was also god modding Thats why we recommend every post be at least two paragraphs long. that way, fights and talks can always be interesting and you don't brick a thread.
No Killing
you cannot kill another player now matter how hard you try. even if your a million stages better you are forbidden to slay other members characters. However, event thread have their own set rules which need to be read if your about to join an event.
