By joining ‘The Revolution Has Begun’ you are agreeing to the rules of the site. The rules must be followed if everyone’s to get along. If you do not follow the rules you will receive a warning, which if you continue to break the rules will result in you being banned. Please be sure to keep an eye on the rules as they may be changed.
You must also agree to the Proboards rules. There are no ifs or buts about it you MUST follow them.
ONE || Making A Character ;;
;; You may have more than one character. However you must be able to keep up with posting if you have more than one. We recommend you don’t have more than three characters at a time.
;; If you have made other characters please make sure you have one male character for every three females you have.
;; Once your first character on the site has been accepted, you may not make a new character until you have posted at least three times in character.
;; Please do not double your accounts nor post as another character of yours in the wrong account. This just makes the site look neater as well as helps stop any confusion.
;; Don’t post in role play before you have been accepted. I know this is an obvious rule but it seems a lot of people do it nowadays.
TWO || Other Members ;;
;; No discrimination of any kind will be allowed. This includes Racism, Sexism or Nationalism. This rule is incredibly important and anyone found doing this will be banned faster than you can say ‘Help Voldy is here!!’.
;; If you get into an argument with another member on this site do not bring it onto the forum. If you find you can’t solve it ask a member of staff for help. But do not start asking members to side with you.
;; We try to be fair on this site and let members have their say. However in the end the staff will have the final word and if they say no to you creating an army of vampires or whatever they say no and its final please no arguments.
;; Do not ask me if you may be staff. I will decide upon your activity and general attitude to the whole forum. Moreover I might not need any staff. When the time comes I and the other staff will choose an active loyal member to help and become staff.
THREE || The Signatures ;;
;; You must supply a signature for your character. It must have a human face in it this means no to anime pictures and the likes. If you don’t have one or don’t know how to get one we have a graphics board where someone will try to help you out or go to Proboards Support and request one.
;; A Signature must be no larger than 500 in width and 250 in height.
;; If a signature is larger than the requested size a member of staff will ask you to resize it. Failure to resize it will result in a member of staff resizing it for you or removing the image all together.
FOUR || Sexual Content ;;
;; If we find any pornographic links or images you will be banned and reported for violating proboards TOS.
;; You may make slight reference to sexual content but nothing detailed or offensive. If I find anything on here that is you will be given a warning and if continued banned.
;; Please don't be graphic if you are posting anything sexual, this is a rule of TOS on Proboards, I can't do anything about it.
FIVE || Role Playing ;;
;; If you are non canon your posts must consist of about 350 word or more. This may seem intimidating to those of you who don’t role play as much but to be honest for an advanced site its not a lot to ask for.
;; If you are playing a canon you must be able to post about 450 words on average or more. This might seem harsh but its not a lot to ask for if you are playing a canon.
;; If we find you are unable to meet these requirements we will give you a warning. Failure to meet the requests and it will result in your character being taken away and given to someone more able (canons only). Or for non canons if you continue to fail to meet the requirements we will have to ask you to find a site more suitable to your role playing standards.
;; You must not in any way shape or form GOD MOD. This means for those of you who do not know what god modding is, you must not control the thoughts, actions or emotions of the characters you are role-playing with. God modding is not tolerated on any role-play forums let alone intermediate ones.
;; We will also not be accepting any Mary Sues or Gary Stu’s. For those of you who have no idea what I am on about in the fan fiction world they are referred to as ‘the perfect character’.
For example a Mary Sue would be stunning she’d have no physical flaws and everyone would like her or want to be her friend. Moreover she’d probably get perfect grades all the time with no effort at all and all the boys would fancy her. Its pretty much the same for Gary Stu’s but you get the picture. Any variations of these will not be allowed here. No one is perfect. Everyone has flaws.
;; Marriages, Pregnancies are allowed in moderation we don’t want babies popping up everywhere or a marriage every other week but the odd one or two is good.
;; When you start a role play topic please put a tag in so members know if it is open or not. I.e. Severus/Ron.
;; If a role play is tagged and your name isn’t included please do not join, however it is fine to pm the thread creator to ask if its okay to join.
;; Once a character is taken they are taken that means I do not want to see different versions of Harry and Ron running about the place. Make your characters unique to you.
;; This rule is very important so pay attention here. You must be active. This goes especially to the canon characters. I understand you might not be able to post every day but once a week or once a month is not enough! You must be able to post at least two or three times a week!
;; If ten days go by and you have not posted an application or you’ve been accepted but not posted at all it is likely your account will be removed.
;; Character deaths are allowed but no major cannons can be killed unless it is part of the story. Also once your character is dead that's it they can't come back. So you may want to think about it before you kill your character off. You can't kill another person's character off unless you have worked it out with them and been given permission by an admin/mod.
;; Please if there are more than 3 people in a thread have a posting rota so people don’t get left behind.
SIX || The Chat Box ;;
;; Please Do not advertise in the chat box, this includes drawing attention to the link in your name ie - Ohh i have a new site if anyone wants to join clicky my name! - We have an advertising section. USE IT.
SEVEN || ACCOUNTS ;;
;; Admins reserve the right to delete accounts if after a week the person using the account hasn’t made any attempt to make a character or/and doesn’t make an accepted character with no attempt to even start one.
;; If you are going away and haven’t made a character you must inform us so we do not delete your account.
