1. You must be at least 17 to join. If you join and we find out that you are not at least 17, we will ban you.
[Note: If you are 16 and can make a valid argument as to why we should allow you to join this RP, submit that to an admin (Alfred F. Jones, Sven De Ruyter, Lars Van Dyke) and I will review your case]
2. No kicking, no screaming, no Justin Bieber. Basically, let's all try to get along. If you're going to fight OOC, please take it off the comm.
3. Please try to stay as close to cannon as possible, personality and appearance-wise. For example: Not acceptable: Alfred is a vegan. Acceptable: Arthur has a crazy tattoo.
4. This is an AU-our universe RP. This universe is pretty much ours, so let's not have super powers or anything like that. Feel free to have your characters interact with real places, people, and companies.
5. This is not Gurotalia, nor is it Porntalia (I really hope those aren't real RPs, otherwise I will feel bad), so let's not have too much of either. I'm sure we can all appreciate some sex and violence, but story lines are good too. (I'm not really going to monitor this, so please try to be reasonable)
6. Please do not rape or kill without consent. I doubt this will be a problem, but please keep it in mind, just in case.
7. No OCs without talking to a mod or an admin first. We'll discuss among ourselves, and if we feel that your OC is well developed enough, we will allow it in the community. The same goes for genderbends. Basically, if you can prove to us that the character is not a Mary Sue and is in fact relevant to the nation, you will be allowed to have the OC.
8. No god-modding.
9. No one-liners. 200 words minimum with proper English, please.
10. If you read this, you will put your starting location as Tokyo. All characters will "start" in Tokyo for the opening of the "Cherry Blossom Festival" event, but are not required to post in the event. This is only to make sure you've read the most updated rules.
11. One post a week minimum. If you go for two weeks without posting, unless you are on an announced hiatus, your character will be deactivated and will be up for grabs by other RPers. You can reclaim your character when you return, assuming that someone else has not already claimed it.
12. One character to start off with. Once your character has 20 posts (20 quality posts), you may pick up another character. Please let a mod or admin know first though, okay?
13. All RPing in the cbox is not canon unless specified. Please feel free to RP in the cbox, but if something is majorly character changing or anything of the sort and you'd like it to be canon, please include a corresponding thread. There is no requirement to RP in the cbox.
14. If you are going to RP in the cbox, please either use a character specific account, or include your character's image as the icon. When people are RPing in the cbox, please respect that and tag your OOC comments in brackets or parenthesis or something similar.
15. Respect the Admin and the Mod(s). We are pretty laid back, and you can get away with a lot, given that this is a 17+ board and you all should really be able to handle a little swearing here and there. However, we do make the rules and reserve the right to ban anyone who does not follow said rules. You don't have to like us, you just have to listen to us.
