Rules

Welcome to Xanarth. I am Lirath and I run this forum. I would like to post some rules and guidelines before we continue on to the good stuff, which shall be posted in other categories. Later, we'll get to learn how to role-play and how to contact me. We'll also chat and throw things at each other. Sounds fun, huh?

Rule # 1:

Do not ask for anyone's personal information (address, phone #, gender). If they wish to give it, they will do so in the 'Contact Information' category. If you get a message asking for information, please report it straight to me. I will deal with the culprit.

Rule # 2:

Do not send threatening or slanderous messages to other members of the forum. Do not post their private business on the forum unless they give you permission to do so. Their private life is theirs alone. Do not badger someone into telling you private business. You don't need to know if their parents divorced or if someone died. It's their business.

Rule # 3:

Do not advertise inappropriate products, sites, or otherwise on this forum. Small children may play on here, and most of us do not want to read or watch porno, or purchase a six pack of Miller Lite. We want to role-play and chat in a friendly, appropriate environment.

Rule # 4:

I feel like Genie from Aladdin. You know? With the rules. Anyway, as I stated in the 'About' section of the forum, I have nothing against curse words, gun fights, and sex. It is a role-playing site. Things might get a little messy. It's only natural; especially for teenagers like myself. I, personally, love violence in a role-play. However, young children like role-playing, too. We must be fair to them by posting a warning in the first post of every role-play we create. If you know there's going to be sex/ gun fights/ curse words, say so and I will accept it. If you do not post a warning and a young child reads it, I will hold you accountable. That means big-time major chew-out. I get very angry sometimes. Mood disorders aren't fun, kiddies. No they aren't.

Rule # 5:

This girl. She just keeps coming with the rules. This one involves staff positions. If you'd like to become a member of staff, you must prove yourself worthy. Throw yourselves before the might of the currect staff members and beg for the chance to impress us! Mwahahaha! No, I'm kidding. That's not how it works. We want to see you helping the site members; doing your best to be a good member of the forum. We may pick and choose moderators or admins at random. We may or may not hold a contest at some point. There are requirements: good grammar, a pretty clean record, determination, and imagination are big parts of the deal. We also want a staff memeber who will stay on; who won't flake on us. If you know you won't make it, just say so and we won't choose you.

Rule # 6:

Two more 6's behind that and we'd have the anti-Christ rule. Try not to use chat-speak when IC (in character). OOC (out of character) chat-speak is fine, but IC chat-speak is not. Not everyone knows how to speak in tongues.

Rule # 7:

Don't call us; we'll call you.
