*THE RULES

As stated in the Proboards ToS, our rating here on Midnight Shadows is PG-13. Please try to keep it PG-13. If there is any form of extreme violence, nudity, or sex we ask that you black it out when it gets to the point they wouldn't show in a PG-13 movie. You can take it off the site, we wouldn't try to control that, but none of it can be on the site.

Here lie the usual rules: No God-Moding: You control your own character and their action, not those of the other characters. You can say that your character aimed a punch for character B's face, but give Character B room to move out of the way or duck, nothing's ever for certain! No Mary-Sues/Gary-Stus: Everyone has flaws, and not everyone is flawed all the way through. Strengths and weaknesses are good.

We have none. We understand some players can handle twenty characters, and some can handle only one. Some play only guys, some only girls. We ask that all the member groups be even if possible and that you only create the amount of characters you can handle. A character can be denied if your others are not active.

Our word count on the site is 250 words, and this is not a high limit, just one to insure that everyone gets a decent sized reply. Try to match the word count of whoever you're playing with and if you have trouble with the word count, feel free to ask others for help, we've all been there before.

FCs can be tricky when you have an Active that can change their face for any mission. Try to pick a face claim that matches what they would look like at the CU base when they're at rest, so that way not every character has five claims! If they change their looks, just make sure to describe it in a post for the sake of who you're playing with or find an image that matches.

Keep all fighting off of the site. We do not want to see it, and the chat is not a place for fighting. Please take it to PM or off of the site. If it is really a problem, please PM an admin and we will do our best to solve it in a way that works out for both parties. Also, if you are mad at another person, please remember this does not mean that your character is mad at theirs.

Avatars can be sized 150x220 at the highest possible size, they can be smaller. And as long as the signatures are not bigger than 500x400, feel free to go wild with sizes there too.
