Creating Your Character:

1.) Before you begin posting in character, your character application must be accepted by one of the admins.

2.) Please make sure that your display name is proper, a first and last name and a middle name if you so desire.

3.) You are allowed to have as many characters as you like. Make sure that they are active or else they will be deleted.

4.) Try to match the age of your character as best you can to the age of the celebrity your using. Also, nothing that stretches the board. Keep images within 500 px width X 300 px height.

In Character:

1.) We accept all writers who are advanced or at least close to it in some way. We want each person to make at least 2-4 paragraphs per post, that way we all have something to reply to with our characters. If you don't post enough then you will receive a warning from the staff, if you don't obey the warning then you will be banned for three days.

2.) Just so we're all on the same page, please keep all post in the same format; 3rd person, past tense. If this doesn’t happen you will receive only one warning and if you can’t do it you’re character will be deleted.

3.) If you must post something out of character, make sure its distinguishable as such by using '[...]' or '((...)).'

4.) Remember that no one is perfect, we all have our faults. No ‘Garry Stu/Mary Sues’ are welcomed here.

5.) Godmodding is strictly prohibited! You character obviously can't read the mind of everyone else, nor can they read yours. At the same time, be realistic. You can't deflect every curse sent your way. No one is invincible.

6.) Plagiarism of any artwork or fanwork is not welcomed. Don’t do it! If I found out that you have, you’ll be banned by your IP address and not welcomed on the board ever again.

7.) Use proper grammar and spelling to the best of your ability. I don’t want to see chat speak at all in character. If I do you will get a warning then suspended for 4 days. If and when you come back you’ll only get one more chance.

8) This board is rated PG-13. If your thread becomes...'heated' please put a rating in the title.

Out of Character:

1.) Use the absentee board when leaving for more than three days. If you haven't posted in one week you will get a warning letter. If you reply with a good reason as to why you haven't posted you're character wont be deleted. If you do not reply to the warning letter you'll get another one and if you don't reply to that one you'll be deleted.

2.) Spamming of any kind will not be tolerated. Especially in the c-box!

3.) In Character feuds are encouraged, however out of character arguments are just unnecessary.

4.) The secret word that you must have on your application is Fluffy.
