The following rules concern members when they're out of character. Please follow them to the best of your ability! Please refer to the in character rules for students here
1. Respect the staff, and don't hesitate to come to us if you have a problem!
2. We are fair to everyone who joins, which means we won't treat any one member better than another. We love you guys! (insert big brother stare and smile here)
3. IC drama does not equal OOC drama. Just because someone's character might hate your character does not mean that member hates you! We're all about being friendly towards each other... OOCly at least!
4. In the case you have an issue with another member, please DO NOT bring it up in the cbox. Contact a staff member and talk to them about the issue you have and we will do our best to solve it so that everyone is happy. Nothing kills a forum like drama.
5. If there is a decision you disagree with us on, we are willing to hear your side and objectively try to come to a compromise.
6. Keep us informed of any long-term absences so we know that you didn't drop off the face of the earth!
7. There is no character limit, but keep in mind that you should only have as many characters as you can handle.
8. No posting IC until your characters profile has been approved by a staff member.
9. If you have a 1st year character, you have to post in the Sorting Ritual Area first, no exceptions
10. When creating a character between years 2 through 7, you may create your own familiar and select their house yourself. Keep in mind that Familiars determine what house your witch or wizard is sorted to, so please check the familiar guidelines when making your character. A young witch with a fish as a familiar would look incredibly strange eating lunch with the Denfang students and all of their flying critters...
11. "Special" skills, such as being a Parselmouth or a natural metamorphmagus will be awarded by the staff to characters we feel deserve them, through their IC actions and their profiles. However, if there's something you really want, it honestly doesn't hurt to ask.
Member wants a WAREWOLF!
Member uses CHARM AND WIT
It's super effective!
Admin says YES!
12. Open positions, when it comes to Teachers, Staff and Prefects will be decided by the Staff. They can be awarded randomly to deserving students, or if you're interested (especially in a Teaching Position) please PM a staff member with a sample application and we'll let you know. Keep in mind that Prefects are chosen in their fifth year and will continue to serve as a Prefect until their seventh year.
13. Keep your characters varied! Not everyone can be like Harry, Herminone or Malfoy.
14. Don't go looking for an 'Evil' House. There's potential for evil in everyone, meaning that there could be someone with dark intentions in every house. Watch out, they might even be one of your friends and you wouldn't even know it...
15. Please keep all RP PG-13. Or risk the consquences of being banned. Possibly deleted.
16. We are a 1 character per account site. To make life easier for you, there's a switch accounts button on the right hand side corner of your screen, with two people.
