Why was six afraid of seven?[/u] Because your mom turned seven into a number cannibal. Hence the true answer being because seven ate nine. (( Yes, you need all of that ))

God-moding and Power-playing is prohibited[/u] Do not take control of someone elses character, you will not win every fight, you will not always hurt someone, you cannot dodge every single spell, plain and simple.

Type in third person and third person only[/u] This means you use words like he, she, it, they. When a character speaks, you MUST use quotation marks. You can bold the speech, but it is not a must. Thoughts, however can be in first person and either need to be indetified in single quotation marks or italics. It can be both.

You must send a PM to me with your other accounts and characters[/u] Yes, the staff will be keeping tabs on you...
Actually, we just want to know who plays who. This information will be stored in the Admin/Staff Library, and we will only see it. However, unless you tell us not to... If a member asks who plays so and so, we will tell them.

Avatars, Signatures, and other Graphics including Character Pictures
Your avatars can of course, be no bigger than 100x100 and must be of your character or something involving them. Signatures are no bigger than 600x200.
Your character pictures can either be of an anime-like-drawn picture, but it must look Harry Potter-ish, a picture of a celebrity, or yourself. If you do not feel safe(add a less than three ((<3)) somewhere in your profile) using yourself as a picture, or you think you might not be attractive [Which I think is bullcrap, everyone is beautiful, don't listen to other people].

All threads must be dated[/u] This is because at the end of each month, a month will be added to the timeline with all IC threads that happened on that month... It can be say... December 23 in real life, but in a thread it can be December third in the thread... It just needs to stay in the same month.

Swearing is allowed[/u] Yes we do allow swearing on the site, it is not restricted but that does not mean that I want to see constant cussing. Please keep it low-level.
Good : "Holy shit that hurt!"Sarah yelled, now hopping on one foot. It had been her luck that she stubbed her toe on the corner of her bed on an already crappy morning, only making it worse.
Bad : "Holy fucking fuck, what the fuck yo? I don't fucking understand why you have to fucking show your fucking ass everywhere you stupid bitch because no one fucking likes you shithead."

Do not post anywhere in character without an approved character. You cannot post anywhere until we have checked over your application and then accepted your character.

You must have permission to have characters with special abilities I am allowing some abilities for original characters but you must have a very good reason for it. For right now, I am the approver for this... So PM me before putting it into your profile.
And by special abilities, I mean things like vampires, werewolves, tele-powers, stuff like that.

Any sexual orientation is allowed We are a non-discriminatory site and therefore are pleased to allow straight, gay and bisexual characters all of which will have the same rights within the wizarding community on the site. If I see or hear of anyone discriminating against another character/rper (out of character) because they don't like their sexual preference then it will be instant banning, this is your only warning. I realise that there will be characters who discriminate against people like that but don't let it get too offensive and don't let it get out of character.
((Two words in your profile must be red))
