Welcome to the Handbook for the forum rules. If you'd like to view the forum rules in full detail, please go here
These are what the rules are in short.
I. Respect the backstory
-You cannot use the last name Potter, or claim to be a child of the Trio.
-To be related to a book character or use the last names Granger, Malfoy and Weasley, you need special permission.
II. Maintain the Role-play Atmosphere
-You may not enter a thread and automatically know what's going on.
-Keep OOC posts to OOC areas. Any pure OOC posts in a role-play area will cause a thread to be locked as spam. {OOC} notations as demonstrated are allowed every so often if your role-play post exceeds the OOC portion
III. Respect your fellow members
-No advertising via PMs
-One word posts and double posting is forbidden. Double posts are allowed after a 24 hour period only.
-Harry Potter shipping (except by the character itself to match the backstory) is forbidden in signatures, avatars and personal text.
-Sig limit is 600x350
-No anime characters allowed
IV. Everyone must have a bio.
-Biography Bastion contains a form to be filled out. Please fill in more than one sentence per paragraph zone.
-Special Powers must have Headmistress Approval.
A. Full Elementalism is prohibited.
B. Full Wandless Magic is prohibited.
-Bios can be updated as time progresses
V. Follow the Proboards TOS.
-No sexual content (including rape or student pregnancy)
-Excessive cussing is not permitted. (The F-word is never allowed)
-Suicide or attempts are not allowed.
Suggestions (not full rules at this time):
-Please no one-liner posts
-Don’t “fall in love” in the same thread that you meet someone.
