[JESSIEbytes]

•• REGISTRATION/APPLICATION ••

1. Sign up with your character’s first name. Modify your profile and make your username FIRSTNAME LASTNAME (ex. “MARY SUE”).

2. Role-players are restricted to six characters. Only two vampires, two witches, and two humans. This is subject to change—so keep your eyes open.

3. The application thread title must be LASTNAME; first name (the alias name). (ex. “SUE; mary”)

4. Fill out the application as it is. Do not modify the coding.

5. You are limited to the Chatbox and the OOC area until your application is approved by the staff. You are also not permitted to post in the Forum Games board.

6. It is preferable that you create one male for every female to keep the genders balanced—of course this is a guideline not a set in stone rule. If the ratio gets to be too unbalanced a ban will be put in place.

7. You MUST look at the species description board before applying. (Rules for the species will be listed there).

•• GRAPHICS ••

1. DO NOT stretch the board. Signatures are no larger than 500x500

3. Celebrities/Models may only be used once (with the exception of twins), so check the claims board before you decide on a model.

2. All graphic content may be no larger than 500x500.

3. No genitals should be visible in your images. Also, keep in mind that staff members maintain the right to ask you to remove an image if they think it shows too much cleavage.

4. Swearing is permitted, but try to be tasteful about it.

5. If you need help creating graphics, please post a request in the graphics board.

•• ROLE-PLAYING ••

1. All posts must be more than 350 words. Be descriptive of your surroundings, actions and especially your thoughts (as vampires can read thoughts; see the species descriptions for more details.).

2. Again, Swearing is permitted but try to keep it tasteful

3. Sex is okay, but please fade out before it gets too detailed or descriptive. (personal IC boxes are exempt from this rule). This should be the ONLY use of IC boxes!

4. No God Modding, Mary or Gary Sues. All characters have flaws. Some characters may be more powerful than others but they still have weaknesses.

5. Not every character should be a slut, uber powerful, etc…variety is key.

6. If a character is arranged to be killed, please have both party members PM the same staff member. This is as clarification that it has been agreed upon so no one loses their precious characters by accident or miscommunication.

7. If a character is to be turned into a vampire, it must be approved by a staff member. Each vampire can only turn one human every 100 years—by vampire law, so the same vampire can not make many underlings in a short time span. A vampire should only ever turn one human on the site—so please keep this in mind. For more information on this, please see the species descriptions.

•• GENERAL RULES ••

1. No Fighting with a Staff Member (site related; if it is personal, tread carefully)

2. Be respectful of each other and the staff

3. Follow the rules when in the Cbox

4. Be Active!! Can’t stress this enough. If you can’t keep your characters active you will be required to delete one…and that will continue until you are active again.

5. We do not discriminate upon race, color, sexual orientation, religion or other things of that sort. Please do not start fights concerning such things—

6. If there is a serious problem, please contact a staff member

7. If you have site suggestions please PM a Staff Member.

8. Have Fun! =D
