rules:[/color][/font][/b]
2. Spelling and Grammar. I'm sure everyone knows how to write sentences that make sense and words that can be understood. Dark Deception is a role play site for beginners up to advanced rpers, but please no one liners or paragraphs that don't even look like paragraphs, at least 5 or so sentences please and really try. I am assuming that you all have a good grasp of the English language. These sentences should have proper spelling and grammar. We are all human so a few mistakes are acceptable. A way to prevent as few mistakes as possible is the Word program or maybe a spelling and grammar check somewhere on the internet. Firefox has a built in spell check as well as the google tool bar.
3. Characters and their flaws. Every person in the whole world, (even the most beautiful of people) has flaws. This means that your character should too. Then again, this does not mean your character should have so many flaws that the character is just unbearable. So please, just make your guy or gal realistic as possible.
4. Now, when you post make sure it's in third person. I shouldn't have to say this but it seems that I have too. Third person is like this:
Harry walked into the room as his scar seared with pain.
Not like this, this would be first person:
I looked around the room as my scar seared with pain.
It's somewhat simple to grasp and were just asking for you to use the correct format.
5. Respect. That is a big thing here. The admin are only here to help you and make the site run as smooth as possible. The code phrase is 'Choose Wisely'. We will try to help you out the best we possibly can. We ask you that if you have a problem with another member you take it to personal message (pm) or some form of chat messenger. If the problem is too big for you to handle it would be smart to personal message (pm) and admin and ask for some help.
6. Godmodding. This is where you control another character that does not belong to you. This is very unacceptable. If you have permisson from the character's owner that this is an exception. If you do not there will be serious consequences taken. I advise that you follow this rule closely and throughly.
7. As for your characters signatures you can have a banner or a few icons. The only thing we ask is for you not to stretch the page with it. If is does stretch the page we have a code that will automatically resize it but leave a link of the original size, but please don't over size everything just because of that code.
8. We want this site to be as active as possible mostly if you have an important canon (like the trio's kids or Scorpius). The only thing we ask is for you to post an away message if you not going to be around for a while, there is a board for those absences. The originals and the minor canons are also important so make sure you also keep up your activity. We will have activity checks every so often just to make sure everything is going smoothly.
9. Swearing is allowed, but in moderation. No one likes to see fuck this and fuck that. So use it, but be mature about it, k? =]
