[/font][/right]joining, accounts, & characters
- One account per character, please. This ensures that the site's level up system will work properly for each character!
- Please, please don't join if you don't think you'll be active. Activity is hard, especially in the new days of a site, and a small but thriving community is more rewarding than a large but deserted one!
- As of right now the character limit is 3. This may change at any time according to activity, so check the rules each time you make a new character!
- At the moment, human characters only. Sorry! Once we progress further in the plot and reinforcements start arriving, turian, krogan, and salarian characters will become available, but as of right now those poor humans are on their own!
- Also, this is a non canon site until further notice. Again, once reinforcements start arriving, characters who end up on Earth like Jack and Zaeed will be available, but for now we're on our own!
- We have a low experience threshold, so feel free to join even if you've never roleplayed before! A more experienced member will be more than happy to show you the ropes.
- FACE CLAIMS. Face claims are first come first serve! You may make a claim for up to three days before your profile is complete, but if you take longer than that your claim will expire!
- You do not have to make a face claim if you don't want to! If you do, though, please make sure to do it before you post your profile.
- Please be sure to follow the profile forms! They're there to make everyone's lives easier!
- Note: Admin Candy is sort of a grammar nazi. Please don't take it personally if I nitpick your profile! It is not a value judgment upon you! It is merely me being overly anal about where apostrophes are supposed to go!
writing & roleplaying
[/font][/right]- You may start/join as many roleplay threads as you think you can keep up with. The more the merrier!
- Again, there is a 100-word minimum for in-character posts only! You're absolutely encouraged to write more; 100 words is about a paragraph. (250 words is one Microsoft Word page, so really it's not that much ;]) You can write as little or as much as you like out of character, though!
- Please grammar and spell check! As I mentioned, I'm a bit psychotic about grammar. That annoying red line is there for a reason! Typos happen of course and I'm not a douchebag, I promise! Just double check before you post and we'll all be good.
- It shouldn't have to be said, but no godmoding (invincible characters), powerplaying (dictating the actions of characters that aren't yours), etc. It isn't polite!
- If you'd like a thread to be private or for only a certain number of people, please mark it as such; otherwise it will be considered open to everyone!
- Try to keep the rating around PG-13. Language/violence/sexual content more visceral than what's depicted in the game is a no go! But since presumably you've all played the entire series, if you aren't up for gore, cussin', or smoochin', you probably shouldn't be here.
- That being said, if you're planning on being particularly detailed about something, it's best to put a warning in the thread title, just as a heads up. Okay~?
general
[/font][/right]- I know this seems like a lot and I'm sorry! Most of these are merely here to make everyone's lives easier; if you forget or are confused about something I totally understand!
- Don't be a dick, okay? Deliberate and/or prolonged racism/sexism/trolling/etc. will earn you a warning, then a ban.
- If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to come to one of us! We're here to help you!
- This is one of those 'probably shouldn't have to be mentioned' things, but you ought to have played through ME3 before joining. (If you've played 2 you can probably catch on pretty quick, but there's no guarantee you won't find spoilers!)
- That's it for now! I'll update occasionally, so check back every so often! Now go out there and have fun!
