Hello Everybody! In Order to make this site function we need Rules and Regulations. The Magical Hogwarts Staff expects everyone to follow these rules. If you do no follow these rules you shall be warned, and then eventually get punished further. Well anyways before you get sorted you must read these rules because you will surely get into trouble if you don't by not following directions. Do not post until you have been sorted.
*- Can be found in Role playing Guidelines
Spamming[/u]- Please do not spam. It is pointless and very annoying to your peers. Please refrain from double posting, and try to post in one. And then when another person posts you can post again.
*God-Moding[/u]- There are some people on sites that think they are better than others by controlling your character. Or they think that they are so perfect by knowing what is going on in other peoples lives. Please do not God-Mode. It is irritating and stupid and can annoy the hell out of your peers. If you are planning to god-mode you must plot with the other character through the PM system.
Language[/u]- Please do not use vulgar language. Alot of people do not like cursing, and they are young teenagers on this board. Please keep cussing to a minimum.
*Posting[/u]- This is a major important rule when your are role playing. One full paragraph per post minimum, though it is recommended that you should post more than that. Please avoid one-lining.. I hate when people one-line and so does your peers. If you constantly one-line in all your posts you shall get a warning, and further consequences. Also please keep OOC in posting to a minimum.
Fantasy vs. Reality[/u]- Please be aware that this is a HARRY POTTER FORUM. Avoid having i-pods, cellphones and etc. You don't see many electronical things at Hogwarts, just please keep this to a minimum.
Special Abilities[/u]- You may not just randomly decide that you have special powers, you need to apply to have a special power. Only limited people can have special powers on this site, not everyone can. Please do not make up your own special power.
*Your Character's Name[/u]- In order to get sorted your character must have a full name. (Example: Peter Chase) In the past we had let people have cannon character last names (Example: Mike Riddle) We are no longer allowing that, but if you have a character like that you may leave it, you do not have to change it. So basically no more cannon character last names, we have enough of them. Also please do not take your names from people shows, movies , celebrities and etc. Also please refrain from having a name like hermione33. That is also not aloud.
Profanity[/u]- Sex, Drugs, and Extreme Violence is not allowed. This is a PG-13 site. We do not want people role-playing sex when there are young teenagers here. Please do not even mention drugs, and violence is allowed but kept it to a minimum.
Mary Suing/Gary Stuing[/u]- Mary Suing is when your character is always perfect. Get over it! No one is perfect, no one on this earth is perfect so do not make your character perfect because it's not. Gary Stuing is making your character seem like a "bad-ass" No one is a villain in this world, yes your character can be mean and dark but do not make your character pure evil. Unless if your the Dark Lord.
Multiple Character[/u]- On this site we allow multiple characters, but it's in your responsibility to make sure that they are all active. The maximum characters a person can have is five.
Stealing[/u]- Please do not steal from this site, we have worked on this site so hard and we do not want people copying our own work. If you steal we shall hunt you down, and ban you from this forum forever. There shall be no warning if you steal. If you would like to bring something from our site to your site that you find interesting please PM one of the admins to see if it is ok.
First Offense- warning
Second Offense- second warning
Third Offense- 3 day suspension
Fourth Offense- a week suspension
Fifth Offense- Permanent ban[/center]
Yours truly,
Magical Hogwarts Staff
