governing rules

the basicsDon't be mean to people. Not everyone knows all the intricacies of this series, don't be mean. Don't be rude. Don't name-call or use any slurs of any kind. Aggression and Jerk-ness will be dealt with swiftly and un-mercilessly so don't be that person.
Staff is the law (usually). If a member of staff asks something of you or warns you against something, it's in your best interest to listen up and obey the order. Now that said, no member of staff shall use their power to bully or otherwise cause another member to feel embarrassed or hurt. If a member of staff does make you feel uncomfortable or you feel wronged by them, please PM ADDI.
Real life comes first. There are instances where life demands precedence and it should be given. Please do not ever feel like this site needs to come before anything in the real world. Please be respectful if someone takes a long time replying, try to act how you wish to be treated.
Being on a Proboards server means that we are PG-13 according to the terms and conditions you already agreed to when you signed up. If you have adult situations fade them out and please put trigger warnings if sensible themes arise.

character creationPlease register with your character's first name and then change it to your character's full name once your account is made.
Mini-profiles and profiles should be filled and completed once you post your application for review! If you have trouble finding images and gifs, need help resizing them, please do not hesitate to ask HAYA for help. Otherwise, a wild Haya might appear and fill out those images/gifs.
Celebrity play bys only. No social media 'celebrities' (with exceptions if they are officially models/actors/singers etc), no anime, no pretty neighbor who lives down the street. If you wish to have a twin you need to get permission from the person who already has the celebrity.
While characters can be younger than 18 your play by needs to be aged 18+.
In instances where two players cannot agree who will win a sparring match or battle, message a member of staff to roll the dice of doom and randomly decide a winner.
Please remember that on a large scale of things... these are kids who are attending a summer camp. If you would like your character to have a particularly dark past and/or heavy mental illness please message a member of staff first.
If you wish your character to be pregnant you must get permission from the staff. Meaning you need to submit your request to a member of staff and the whole crew will look over your case and decide. Pregnancies are only allowed for adult characters living in New Rome.

activity & postingWe do not have a word count, we just ask that you try to match your partner. Quality over quantity but please don't test our patience and post a one-liner to a 500 words reply unless your partner has agreed to this. Don't be that guy.
No god-modding without permission. Meaning you can't throw someone out of a window unless you have gotten permission to do so.
Please post in 3rd person and past tense, EX: Mary walked over to the cat. She pet the cat softly.
Absences can be posted in the discord channel or if you prefer or have reason to keep it private please message a staff member.
Activity checks will be held every 2-3 months, instead, we will do sweeps to keep the site clean and claims up to date.
Failure to participate in two activity checks will result in your account getting deleted.

discordBasic manner rules apply to our site's discord as well.
While it is not required to join the discord it is highly recommended as plotting and announcements are mostly active there!
