Board Rules
This may be updated often, so please check back if someone has edited this. For extended information, please check this out.


Adult Themes?
Having characters explore and develop their relationships is a great chance to get to know others and to expand your character. However if you wish to explore futher your physical relationships.. I'd ask that you post in a privet forum and I shall give you access to a privet forum where you and your partner may post shamelesly away from the eyes of our younger players. Or email me at..

warangel17@hotmail.com

..if you want to be more privat about it.

However this is NOT a site where you can just come to post having sex, you even DARE come to this board and try posting crap upon crap without story lines I swear, I'll...*Starts boiling with anger and is dragged outta the topic by Judo kicking and screaming until she calms down*

..I'd just like to add, you can have a passionate relationship without posting graphic sex posts..I mean..honestly..you're trying to show your love for your partner, not disgust us!

I mean, you can say things about their body, you can even say if you are with another person and you're courting each other, that you touch and kiss whatever, but what I don't want to see on the board are detailed sexual acts. Vague sexual acts...*Shrugs* I've seen it work marvously. Detailed growsing out sexual acts....get a privet forum for such things please.

Posting
We will be watching the quality in how everyone posts, we want people to enjoy coming here, and we'd like them to be able to put effort into a post and have someone reply with the same amount of effort. To many times I've spent ages thinking over what to post, then put effort into it, and then have a reply no more then 2-3 simple, basic, no thought put into them, sentances -_-
This is very disappointing to see, so I'd ask everyone to try and put effort into their posts. I do understand that sometimes it's not easy to come up with a huge reply to someone, as long as it isn't a constent thing, we don't mind a short 6 sentanced post....*Hint* ...6...not 2 lines of writing..

Not posting?
After a longer time of absence without any notification, your characters will be considered dead. The bios will be stored in the unavailable/dropped characters section and within the plot - granted you are involved - we'll try and play around those characters; find some excuse why s/he isn't around anymore.
If you want to return after such an AWOL time, please contact an admin who will "resurrect" the character(s) in question. However, be fair! Although this is "just a game", people depend on you - it's their freetime as well - so talk with those concerned before leaving!

The other way around: if you want to drop a character (because you let him/her die or are bored of the creature ;) ), tell one of us as well and s/he'll be moved to the said section.

Grammer / Spelling?
It's hard to RP with people who have posts riddled with poor grammer and every 2nd word with a spelling mistake.
I'm not perfect, infact, far from it, I bet there are dozens of spelling mistakes or typos in here, and if there is none, then that's because I probably went over this a thousand times correcting it :D
To the point. Try and spell check your posts, if we can not understand what your trying to say, and we have to guess, then it's no fun at all.

Admins / Mods
I'm going to say this right off, there most likely will only ever be 3-4 admins.

1. Angel (Angela - xx ArcAngel xx + others)
2. Judo (Shin Shatterstar)
3. Matt (Lexes ò Akasha)

Mods are a different matter, I need mods, of course this will not be given out to just anyone, they will be people who I think are highly trust worthy. So if you just meet me and think this is a cool board and want to play and become a mod..no, sorry, not how it works. My mods will be chosen for the fact I know them, talk with them constantly and get on well with them ;) .

Treated Poorly?
If you think your being abused, post a complaint, e-mail me, what ever you want, but do tell me, and then I will take a look at what is happening. If this is a complaint against a mod or admin, that mod or admin will have their powers temporarily removed while an investigation is underway(That's if we actually need time to handle it, if it's obvious they are innocent, the complaint will be ignored). If they are found innocent, the person will be warned, if they complain against what we have said, a banning may be handed to them..(Depending on the situation, and what they do or say)

Swearing...Mummy! He said a BAD WORD!
That's ok dear, we will not complain if you swear, as long as it's in your characters nature. Swearing is not permited if people are swearing at the actual players by insulting the player in ooc. You dare hurt the feelings of one of my hard working players without a reason, then I swear you will have the admins all over you and if you ever do it again, your outta here in tiny pieces that I'll mail one at a time over many many weeks! >:

Sigs and Title Pictures
Personal photos,icons, siggies, sure I loved using them, but some people would have them so large they would stretch the board! If they are to big, we will edit them out of your posts. Please keep the first two smaller than 136px in width; for sigs look at what the other players have and try not to have much more. Graphics and quotes are nice but this is a RP board in the first place.

Custom Titles
At MG, we use custom titles like that one *points at what's written at the left* Normally, it's

character's name
line describing the race or affiliation

other comment concerning the character (his/her role, a hint at special powers, state of mind, past etc.)


with 25 letters (including spaces) as the maximum per line.
What you can see at this account is almost the maximum we accept, less is fully ok! People who have more than two characters are encouraged to have only a few lines per person in order to not waste space in case you write a post shorter than your titles.

Also, when you request one, think about the font color and that of the glow. It makes it easier for us to pick one you like ;)

Don't have your character in 3 places at once!
It gets too confusing. Keep your Characters in one place at a time please.

What does 'TBC' mean? And how does it work?
TBC means 'To Be Continued', this can be used in verious ways;
TBC: Anyone? - Means that any characters is allowed to reply to that post.
TBC: 'Name of another character/s'- Means that only that/those character/s is/are permitted to reply to that post.
TBC: 'Your character name' - 'Place name' - Means that you're leaving the thread and moving onto the new place which you have listed.

(that's all for now :) )
