    Out Of Character
  • Do not argue with other members. It's just annoying and, well, who wants to argue in the first place? If you really have a problem, PM a staff member and we'll get to the bottom of it for you.
  • Even though we're out of character, keep you spelling and punctuation correct. I'd prefer not to see anyone talk liek ths, plz.
  • There is no real minimum word count for posts, but I'd prefer at least one full sentence. No one word posts.
  • Let's not take over the jobs of the admin, ok? If someone is breaking a rule don't take it into your own hands, notify an administrator and they'll come fix it.
  • Do not PM staff asking them to join your super cool new site. Boy oh, boy, does that ever get annoying.

    In Character
  • Some people might not like this rule but this is what the site revolves around. You may only be a character that is represented or modeled by a cartoon character. So, people like Harry Potter arn't alowed. Characters from childrens books, Disney movies, or cartoons work best.
  • All in character posts must have a minimum of 60 words. I'm running an intermediate to advanced RPG, here, and that's what it'll stay as. To see how long your post is, click here.
  • There can be no more then three characters on one account. If you wish, you may make more then one account.
  • One of my pet-peeves would have to be post whores. These are people who post in every single open thread. Try to stick with no more then you can handel and keep up with. Maybe two or three.
  • Do not Power Play. Power playing is when you make another character do something without their consent. For example; Hobbes slapped the other character, killing him instantly. Yeah, crappy but just an example. Saying the other character died instantly is Power Playing.
  • Do not God mood. Godmooding (or G Mooding) is making your character do something completely impossible. For example; Hobbes grew wings and flew away to his new home inside a Hawaiian volcano. Need I say more?
  • Do not post an all OOC post in an IC bard or thread. You can use PM's for that; it's just annoying and spams the boards.
  • The Creation Board and the Adoption Board both have passwords on them. They're the same password, too. Just type in comicstrip and you're all set.
  • When you do post OOC in an IC thread, have something to show it's OOC and not IC, like (( post goes here )) or using OOC and BIC.

    Misc. Rules
  • Feel free to have a picture in your signature, but it must be this size or smaller: Height, 250 pixels. Width, 500 pixels. Also, only one picture (text is allowed as well).
  • Avatars can't be bigger then 100 pixels by 100 pixels. You can make them bigger if you wish 'cause ProBoards resizes them to 100 x 100 anyways, and it'll look like complete crap.
  • You may not have you forum posted anywhere besides your profile, name in the cbox, or advertisement board.
  • Do not spam, flood, or swear in the cbox. It's just annoying. I do have the password and user name for the cbox so I'll get your IP and just ban you. It's not like it's difficult of anything.
  • You may have little things in your name to decorate, but don't use fancy letters from the character map like little capitals and inverted letters. Acceptable: * hobbes.. Not acceptable: |-| 0 B B 3 S [xox] <3.
  • When posting in character or even out of charcter, you may not add color to your posts unless you are making a character plot.

Cbox

Cbox Rules

»Do not S.P.A.M. or Flood the Cbox. This means don't post more then three or four times in a row. It's stupid, pointless, and annoying.

»Do not advertise another site or forum. This means no direct links unless it's just to a picture. Links are allowed to go in your name.

»Do not argue. If arguments fill the cbox, you will be banned. If they continue, it will be removed.

»Do not impersonate others. I have the user name & password for the cbox, we can just compare I.P. addresses, the impersonator will be banned.
