Rules
General Rules1-We'll cover the basics here. No godmoding, no mary-sue-ing, no hitting, no punching, no OOC drama, and no stealing. If it's not nice and is going to make everyone upset, don't do it. Unless it's a spify plot point that you have already discussed with the mods.
2-This is an AU, and thus we enjoy original takes on things. However, if it seems OOC, clear it with a mod. Lucius adopting cute fluffy kittens and Slughorn learning how to tap dance are not things we want to see unless there's a Confundus charm involved. Then it's funny.
3-Please keep in mind that while all forms of pairings are allowed (slash, het, femslash), not all characters are going to be gay. And, in the year this RPG takes place, gay and lesbians were not overly wide-spread. We don't want it overrun with flaming gay activists who flirt with every person of their gender. Keep it realistic.
4-We have rules on our PBs. We don't want to see any divas on here. If your character acts like one, you can still find a good PB who isn't Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson. We're not ultra-picky on it, but if the entire group of players don't have to google their name, it's probably not a good choice.
5-This is an AU, so we do expect things to both be fun and serious. But, this is not a place for the Drama Llama. We don't mind getting bitchy to clear through a few drama starters, but we don't like it. Please don't make us get mean. Drama and Angst IN the game is good, but not outside the game. If Lucius and Narcissa are supposed to be in love in the game, but their players have problems outside the game, then we better not see that reflect on Lucius and Narcissa's relationship. It's not fair to the characters.
6-These rules are subject to be changed at any time! But we're nice mods and will let all the players know if we feel the need to change one.
Main Community Rules1-The community is to play out specific scenarios. Any "I'm bored" posts should simply go in a character's journal; the community is used to play and display plot-related posts. Posts in the community should be played out in third person, past tense.
2-Character communications may also go here. Owls and letters sent from one character to another should be posted up here. Teachers may occasionally may make announcements on the community, too.
Out Of Character Community Rules
1-The OOC community can be used both for plotting purposes and random chatter.
2-Plot-related posts should be friends-locked. (If we get people who watch us, what fun is it if they know what we're plotting?)
