General--;
x; Please be sure you've read Proboards Terms of Service, while it's mostly common sense, you should still familiarize yourselves with how the board works.
x; Easy on the foul language, yes some characters have foul mouths, but that doesn't give you the permission to go crazy with it either. Also, limit cursing in the chat box.
x; There will be no bashing, flamming, or belittling of a fellow member. If you feel one of the other members is being rude to you, do not confront them on your own. Come and get one of the admins and we'll deal with the situation accordingly.
x; When registering, we ask that you do not register under a character name, ex; Arthur Kirkland. This will cause less confusion since you are required to audition for your roles. After you have been accepted you can go in and change your screen name to said character name.
x; Our board is not suitable for members under the age of 15.
x; Please keep all images PG! No nudity, violence, or implications of sexual content.
x; We ask that you use correct grammar and spelling. Do not use 'chat speak'. An example of what is unacceptable is, 'how r u? wats ^?'
x; Keep topics in proper places. Out of Character chat for example does not need to dominate a certain RP area.
x; Random users coming into an RP forum when not assigned a character is not allowed.
x; Don't ask to be a mod, if we need the help a thread or an update will be issued. Until then, keep all questions concerning to be a mod to yourself.

Signing Up--;

Roleplaying-;
THIS IS A HUMAN/MUTANT AU! Therefore the existence of nation/capitol spirits will not come into play!
THIS IS A HUMAN/MUTANT AU! Therefore the existence of nation/capitol spirits will not come into play!
x; When accepted we ask that you post at least once a week.
x; When posting, there is a 350 word minimum. The staff reserve the right to delete or request a reply to be edited if it's deemed to go under the minimum word count.
x; Alternate Universe Roleplay is only there to keep you busy when you are waiting for a reply in the main roleplay board. If we spot that you are posting in the AU when it is your turn to post in the main thread, you will receive a warning.
x; The Red Light District is available for members to roleplay the darker and more adult-toned themes of the board. I.E - Anything sexual or something that would end in guts being displayed should go here. To enter the RLD please message one of the admins for the password.
x; If someone wishes to join in a RP topic already in progress, message the members of the topic and see if it's alright.
x; Should you be a master to a mutant, do not order them to do any sexual activities without first discussing them with the other roleplayer. Afterwards, the thread must be moved to the RLD.
x; A mutant's roleplayer has no say in who their character is bought by or how long the contract will be; all rights and decisions are on the human's roleplayer (Though discussing it ooc is accepted; but please remember the ultimate decision is in the hands of the human roleplayer). So for example, if Lovino (mutant) is bought by Alfred (human), Lovino's roleplayer can not decide whether to go with Alfred or not or how long the contract's term is.
x; Contract terms will last for a certain amount of threads:
x; No Mary/Gary Sues or John/Jane Doe's will be tolerated. If you are unfamiliar with the term, then please research it.
x; There will be no killing off a character by another member regardless of the circumstance in the main roleplay section. However, if you wish to do it within the AU then please gain the other member's approval.
x; There is zero tolerance for god-modding or auto-hitting. Also, do not control another person's character without their consent.
x; There is no need to select a colour for your character's dialogue, however, it is encouraged.
x; Threads with three or more players is allowed.
x; We ask that you use proper grammar and spelling to the best of your abilities. In no circumstance is chat speaking allowed. It's understandable if English isn't everyone's first language, however, just be mindful of what you post before it's set-in-stone.
x; Leave the drama in rl outside of roleplay, it's fine if you need to take a hiatus and sort everything out. Life outside of roleplay comes first for many people, which brings me to the next portion of this rule. A hiatus will last for a month (unless you state otherwise), after the month is up you will receive a message saying you've three days to post in your designated thread or ask for an extension. If no post is made, we will assume you've left the group and your character role will be opened.
x; Relationship's are a possibility on this site! This being said, let's say Russia and America are involved, please don't go and pester them for any romantic relation's when the two characters are already taken. To check out who is taken, or who ships what, check out the list here!
x; We have a section where you can roleplay the events leading up to where the board is set. (I.e; The events of the school, your human's background, ect.)
x; You are allowed to be in as many threads as you'd like within the main setting so long as you make it clear each thread is set apart from each other. We ask that you start at one first and work your way up from there.
x; It is required that you begin plotting upon your acceptance.
x; APPEARANCE IN THE C-BOX DO NOT COUNT TOWARDS ACTIVITY.
x; As stated above, a hiatus will last for a month unless otherwise stated. Depending on your situation, if a month is not enough then PM an administrator. We will try to discuss something around you. A semi-hiatus will last for two weeks with an extension of three days.
x; Activity checks can occur at any time.
x; If your character has been terminated, we still have your character app on file. If you wish to come back as this character shoot one of the admins an ask about it and they'll discuss it over. If we agree, your application will be moved back to the 'Accepted App' forum and you can begin roleplaying once more.
