Rules
Tess/CS/Common Sense
I shouldn't have to explain this. All Tess and CS rules apply. You must have common sense to join this. Be nice, keep it PG-13, no powerplaying/godmodding, no gary/mary sues, all that stuff. I'm clumping it all in here. You guys know what I'm talking about.
Semi-Literate
You must be semi-lit to join this. I'm not going to put a specific amount that you have to write, as long as it's good. I'm gonna say at least 2 lines, with good grammar and spelling. Anything below that I will not consider semi-literate. I want quality over quantity, but that doesn't mean I'll accept one-liners. Period. This rule includes having fairly good spelling and grammar. I understand if you mess up--we're all human, we make mistakes--but at least give your post a once-over before you hit submit to make sure it looks good.
Genders
I'm not gonna make you make a boy and a girl. But please try to keep them fairly even. Meaning, make a boy if there's seven girls and two boys. Because I know that'll happen. If there are too many girls and not enough boys, and you join with a girl, I'll ask you to make at least one boy to even it out.
Pretty Posts and Forms
I like pretty posts and pretty forms. I'll accept boring posts if you're on an iPod or whatever, but please at least center them if you can. I don't like awkward-looking posts. If you can't even do that, edit it as soon as you get on a regular computer.
Romance, Drama, Violence, Etc.
I encourage this. I love it. Just don't go overboard. Like it says above, keep it PG-13. That means time-skip/fade to black if it goes there. Nothing too graphic if it gets violent. You guys know the drill, I'm hoping. This sort of falls under common sense, but I'm going to post it separate just to make sure.
Me
My word is law. Got it? I give you a warning, you don't argue--you say 'yes, Rabbit, I'm sorry. I won't do it again.' Or something to that extent. Three strikes (warnings) and you're out. No exceptions. You can redeem yourself (read below for details), and if you do you'll lose one warning. If you're banned, that's it. No getting back in. I'm not trying to be mean or rude or anything, but I'm enforcing these rules. There're only a few of 'em, nothing too hard to follow. Mind 'em and respect me, and I'll respect you and we'll have a good time RPing. Don't respect me, or break the rules, and we won't. It's that simple.
The Warning/Redemption System
If I give you a warning, you have 2 ways to redeem yourself and get it revoked. Let's say you posted a one-liner, which is against the rules, and I gave you your first warning. Option A--You PM me and ask for a chance to redeem yourself. Be polite if you do this, and I'll be much more likely to give you a redemption. *hinthint* I'll give you a simple task (let's say a short writing sample, since the theoretical warning was for a one-liner). You PM it back to me and I'll most likely take off a warning. You have 24 hrs from the time of the warning to get it taken off.
Option B--Say you ran out of time to get a redemption through Option A. So you keep on RPing and everything. It's not like I'll treat you any different if you get one warning. After a few days, if you post really nice posts and all, I'll probably take off the warning. If you manage to convince me (without saying anything outright) that you deserve it. I probably won't say anything about taking off the warning, so be sure to keep checking out this post in case I took one off.
