• This site has an over-all rating of PG-13. Therefore, you must be at least thirteen to register for this site. Yeah, yeah. Whine, whine. Proboards' rules, not mine. Got a beef? Take it up with them.
• Once you've registered, please change your display name to your character's first, middle, and last name (in that order), all in lowercase. Keep up with the times, kids.
• Head on over to the Creation board and fill out the proper template. There are blank spaces for you to put your answers. If you botch up the code anywhere, you'll be denied.
• There is a list of appropriate character types. You may have a vampire, a shifter, a breeder, or a fugitive. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, perhaps this site isn't the place for you. Just kidding! We have an accepted character list that explains in detail what each character is.
• If your vampire sparkles, his/her account will be deleted immediately. No exceptions.
• I don't care if you have a strange obsession with Prince Zuko from the Last Air-Bender. Celebrity models are to be air-breathing human beings.
• To claim your real live celebrity, pop over to the face claim. If you don't have at least an avatar with that celebrity model, you'll be denied. If someone else already has the celebrity you've chosen, tough nuts. You'll be asked to change it.
• For every two girls you have, the next character has to be a guy. For every two monsters, your next character must be a human. For every loner, your next human must be a breeder. Diversity. It happens. Any person may have up to two canons: a boy and a girl.
• You can go account crazy for all we care, as long as each account is signed in once a week. Failure to do so will result in the admins deleting your account.

• Bad muse days happen, we understand that. As such, we're not going to give you guys a ridiculous word count. However, we would appreciate it if you could please write at least two hundred words. For anyone who has been on other "advanced" sites, you should see what I mean. Two hundred words is like... nothing. And yes, the admins and posting mods will be checking each new post for word counts. If you don't post enough, we'll catch you.
• To avoid confusion, posts are to be kept in third-person past-tense. None of this "I walk up and dip my toe in the fountain. The water is cold." stuff. It all but eliminates any kind of confusion someone might have reading your post, unless your sentences just don't make sense.
• Do the world a favor: tag your threads so we know who's allowed to post in them. You are allowed to tag one of two ways. Either a note at the bottom of the post, or in the title. We prefer it in the title, but if that's just not how you roll, we're not going to go in and edit your thread.
• We don't want any excessive swearing (as in five f-bombs in a row) or descriptive sex stories. Really? Those of who have to monitor your posts don't want to be scarred for life by blow-by-blow accounts of your characters gettin' down. Dear God.
• You may referance drugs in posts, but there must be no mention of taking them. Proboards terms. Unless you want to see Sick Lullabies go "POOF!", right off the internet, I suggest you don't create some junkie character.
• Please try to stick to the personality you wrote in your character's biography, unless there is a thread somewhere where they've undergone some sort of life-changing experience.
• We don't care if an original character has a relationship with a canon character, because the canons were created off the tops of our heads anyway. However, be realistic. You better have a pretty good explanation for it if a vampire suddenly falls in love with a shifter or human. None of this "she smells so delicious, so I'm suddenly in love with her" crap.

• As you may have noticed, this site comes equipped with its very own cbox. First of all, no spamming please. That means you are not to post the same message more than twice. Sometimes computer fails happen, and we are aware of that. But if we see the same message a total of five times, we'll ban your IP address and tell you to find some other site to spam. To show that you've read these rules, please put [Buffy staked Edward] somewhere in one of the seven facts you're asked to list in your application. Capitalization counts, dears.
• If someone with the word [ ADMIN ] or [ MOD ] in their name tells you to do something, you better listen. Don't be stupid. They're obviously a staff member.
• Also, show respect to everyone. The cbox is a place to chat and have fun and throw rice cakes in people's faces. Not insult them to tears and make them run off bawling their eyes out. Capice?
• Avatars are not allowed. Boo hoo. Suck it up. They take up too much space, and all you really need is a name to be identified.
• The cbox is not for advertising. Any messages that consists of a link to somewhere other than a video or an image hosting site will be deleted. There are boards for advertising. Do that there.
• As far as the IC cbox goes, avatars are allowed there because it's a lot bigger and it helps avoid confusion as to which character is which.
• Fighting is allowed, as long as the issues are solely in character and are written about in a plotter or a thread somewhere. If the mods or admins feel the fight has escalated beyond an in-character issue, we will give all participants a warning and ask them to leave.
