THE RULES
[/FONT][/SIZE]
These are the official rules of THE BEGINNING OF THE END, or as we admins call it, T-BOTE. XD. On T-BOTE, we admins are generally very accepting and patient, but we have our quirks, and if the rules aren't followed, then that's a one-way ticket to finding yourself at the center of our madness.STAFF
- EMMA--air admin
- JACOB--earth admin
- SAPHIRA--water admin
OUT OF CHARACTER
--Members posting Out Of Character need to respect other members in their posts. Teasing is allowed as long as it is ICC, not derogatory in any sort; like on race or sex; and the member will recieve a warning. Three warnings, and you are gone, my friend.
--Please respect the staff, we are here for your benefit.
--Guests are prohibited from posting as long as it is for advertising or concerning to the reservation of characters.
--For voting, make sure you read the entire set of rules prior to voting, including the descriptions of the awards.ROLEPLAY
HEY guys. It's your admin. I'm just letting you know that T-BOTE is stepping up the roleplaying a notch. We wanna survive and thrive? We have to up our game. From now on there is a 200 words minimum that has to be written for every post in roleplay. YOU CAN USE THREAD TEMPLATES FROM CAUTION 2.0! I know you guys, and I know you can pull it off. I want T-BOTE to flourish, but I need your help.
THERE IS NOW A WORD COUNTER UNDERNEATH THE BUTTONS THAT ALLOW YOU TO POST YOUR COMMENTS.
Luff to all =)

CHARACTER ACCOUNTS & LIMITS
--I am making this mandatory, ONE CHARACTER PER ACCOUNT. It's easier to understand--like if your characters are different species, or have a different name--which they should.
--Please, all members with an account, rename your username to that character's name. And, there is no capital letters if you are not an admin. this includes even the first letter. Every word needs to be lowercase
appafreak applied for Avatar Aang, and if he was accepted, he would then change his username to avatar aang.
--If during RP you would like to have another character killed or seriously hurt, you must have that character's permission and Bella's, Sammi's or Saphira's permission. THIS IS A MUST.
--You are allowed to build relationships on this site if you please. Yes, this includes "dating".
v IMPORTANTE v
--If your character is going to become pregnant (FEMALES ONLY THANKS) or alter in some physical way, you absolutely must PM an admin beforehand, to let them know of your change. For pregnant HUMANS you get to name your child, and contribute to the gender, but the staff gets the final decision on gender matters.
UPDATE: If you are registering for a CANON CHARACTER, register with the first and last name of that character

LET IT BE KNOWN:[/size][/b]
Marcus Volturi [as our leading example] has reached the character limit. Seriously, this person plays like half of the characters here. People should only have 4 or 5 characters MAXIMUM! If we find that any more characters are made under this Role player, the accounts will either be deleted, left unaccepted, and be given a very stern talking to. -evil glares- :]
LITERACY

So, as stated earlier in the rules, this is a literate RPG. Literacy means that each post should have at least one paragraph or three sentences. We know that sometimes, it's pretty hard to think up a solid paragraph's worth of stuff. We don't expect this always, but if every single post you make contains only 10 words, we're going to ask you to step it up a bit.
Also, literacy also covers the grammar field. If you want to say something, say it in a legible and understandable way. Put dialogue in quotes, use periods (.) and commas (,), and capitalize words that should be. You can't have a 2-paragraph post if there're no clear sentence boundaries.
So basically, we want you to respect the term "literacy." If you fail to follow these guidelines, a number of things will happen.
- A member of the staff will send you a PM letting you know of your negligence, and ask you politely to step it up.
- After three PMs, posts that continue to show lack of literacy will be deleted. You will be sent a PM letting you know when this starts to happen, again asking you to step it up.
- After a while, the staff will talk it over, and either ban you, or temporarily disable your account.
