The rules

[Lupita?!]

the educational decrees,
a.k.a., the rules

educational decree no. 1

[/i][/size]
all students and adults wishing to attend 70's marauders: The beginning must register with a first, middle, and
last name, all lowercase. failure to do so will result
in apropriate edits made by an administrator so that
the student may be sorted into their apropriate hous
e and the adult may recieve their apropriate job title.

educational decree no. 2
all students and adults will fill out an applica
tion in order to be allowed to post in the claim
areas, character areas, and all rp areas. before the
se students and adults are sorted, they may only po
st in the OOC areas. each student and adult will ha
ve a total of three days to finish their application
once it is submitted for sorting. if your application
has not been completed within one week, without an
absence report, it will be moved to the archives. an ad
min will revive your application by request.

educational decree no. 3
when role playing, all students and adults will
restrain themselves from god modding, or other
wise controlling the other persons character with
out permission, avoiding all peril, excetera. posting
requirements stand at a minimum of three paragraphs,
six sentences minimum or 400+ words. it is understand
able that we will all have off days, and this requirement
is set to avoid one liners and wimpy little paragraph posts.

educational decree no. 4
all students and adults will maintain the utmost
respect to their administrators, moderators, fellow
members and guests when out of character. racial
slurs, jokes, stereotyping, and offensive language
will not be tolerated. this extends not only to the
OOC posting areas, but the CBox as well. no adver
tising or spam in the CBox, please. this should be
a given, simple rule to follow.

educational decree no. 5
here at FORUM NAME HERE, we don't have a limit
on how many characters each person is allotted.
we do, however, ask that for every to females you
create, you make one male. this keeps the male/female
ratio nice and even. also, don't make ten characters
if you can only keep up posting for five. activity
is a must, and activity checks will be done at random,
consisting at least once every month. expect this and
prove your activity with an active thread if you wish
to keep your account. if you will be gone or suspect you
will be gone for an extended period of time, please allow
the staff and members to know by posting in the absences
forum so we don't go worried sick about you, and your
account won't go *poof!*. nobody wants that.

educational decree no. 6
please be respectful to JK Rowling and the Harry
Potter universe. this being said, if you wish to be
a vampire, one, you must have an impressive app
lication, and two, it must be believable. this means
that we don't want any twilight-esque vampires,
wolfs, or characters, period. you wouldn't see some
one signing up as harry james potter on a twilight
site, so we don't wanna see any isabella marie swan
or edward anthony cullen on 70's marauders: The beginning.

educational decree no. 7
when making your character, we don't wanna see
peter perfect or mary sue walking around the site.
no character is perfect, so don't make them out to
have the softest skin, the prettiest eyes, the most
gorgeous figure or the most wonderful hair. you
will be denied faster than you can say erumpet
horn, and that's no exaggeration. even the boy
who lived has many flaws!

educational decree no. 8
70's marauders: The beginning is an intermediate to adv
anced role play site, but we do understand that
you gotta start somewhere. please note that we
are an adult content site, where sex, drugs and
rock n' roll does and will happen. please be cons
iderate to other members, and, if your thread is going
to push the envelope, put (R) in your thread title/descri
ption. it'll save us all a little time if we don't wanna
read on all that jazz.

educational decree no. 9
last but not least, have fun! that's what role playing
is all about, isn't it? its important that you don't forget
that here, because we here at 70's marauders: The beginning love
to have us some fun, both in character and out of character!
also, you'd probably like to know that the password to the
application forum is app. or app. forum password here. yeah, you
may need that in the near future. =]
