RolePlaying
- No God-modding. The Admins and other staff members reserve the right to delete or ask for editing on any posts where it appears this is happening.
- No killing another person's character.
- Grammar is your friend! Please, put some effort into your grammar and spelling. Ellipsis are not to be overused; no one wants to see a post full of "...". This is meant to be a literate RP experience. Try to keep that in mind when posting. For your sanity and mine.
- Stick to one character unless you've been approved by staff. Each player is allowed to have two cannon characters (one of which must be a Hetalia character, the second can be a cannon CM character if approved by staff) and one OC, but as stated before, must be approved by staff in order to have more than one character. If you apply for a character, then play that character. This is an obvious rule, man. In the event that you wish to drop a character in exchange for another, it is expected that you repeat the application process after speaking with an admin or other high-ranking staff member. Do not re-apply without permission.
- It is not required, but it is asked that if you take a second character, you make an account for said character. This is to avoid confusion.
- Please do your best to remain in-character. Don't take someone you have no confidence in being able to write. It isn't expected that you know the character to the point of what brand of underwear they buy, but please, at least have a grasp on them.
- You are welcome to send your character wherever your please (I.E: Germany starts a thread with Russia, the Bad Touch Trio be....the BTT, etc.) but please, try not to join too many topics at once. If you are going to join more than one thread, please try to keep the timeline smooth -- no jumping around through time.
- If you do not post with your character after one week, and are not active in the site at all, your profile will be moved to "frozen". You are welcome to come back and claim them within another week, but after two full weeks, you lose the character unless you post a reason of leave in the extended leave forum.
- This is a PG-16 forum by default. Threads with R-rated content are to be marked "NSFW", and if such violence (that you feel necessary to RP for whatever reason) increases, we ask you to turn to PMs.
- Romance is allowed, of course, but pairings must be submitted and approved via the pairing thread. This is to avoid fights or shipping wars. If any pairing seems to conflict or another personal matter(s) come up, take it amongst yourselves and don't drag the whole forum into your petty squabbling. If it does spill into the forum, the staff will be forced to break up your petty drama lama.
Chatango rules:
- We know its fun to curse and 'CAPSLOCK' in the Cbox, but its rude to the more timid newcomers and the people who want to do semi-serious RPs in the Cbox. Translation: if it annoys the crap out of you, don't do unto others.
-Please stay in your appropriate Chantango account whilst on the forum. That means Italy stays in Italy's RP account, and Italy can't get onto his/her Norway account.
-Please be polite and courteous to your fellow RPers, and respect them while on the forum and the Cbox in general.
-If your Cbox RP is getting to inappropriate for the younger RPers, you will be asked to move it elsewhere, as mentioned above.
-Chat RP is encouraged! It gets character chemistry and ideas flowing, and all around gets people to cut loose and make friends! But if you feel like the cbox is being un-inclusive, tell us. We don't want to push anyone away.
-If someone's behavior is making you feel uncomfortable, please tell them. if the behavior persists, tell a staff member.
Applications:
-We are accepting OCs, including states and other countries, but not cities. And only then, states will only become available when a certain amount of countries are taken. We also ask that those who apply for OCs work a little extra harder and put in time and thought to their characters.
- As mentioned before, absolutely no chat speak. This is a literate RP, come on now....
- Use a character's human name. There really is no point in using the country names, considering this is a human AU RP.... If your character does not have a name, make one up.
- Do not post in any of the boards (outside of the application board, of course) before being excepted.
- Just because your applying does not mean you will be accepted.
