the site rules *
[/justify][/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]welcome to screaming in the dark, a real life/supernatural rp that takes place in whispering woods, maine. i know you just want to get to the actual roleplaying, but please take the time to just read (or skim over) these rules before starting. there's not many, don't worry.
one please please respect both the admins and the members of this site, regardless of whether you are a member yourself or just a guest who is stopping by. please don't start fights out of character, i'm sure everyone would like screaming in the dark to be a fun and friendly place, not a living hell.
two when you register, you can sign up with any name you like, although upon setting up your profile, please change it to first middle last, all in lowercase. for example: demetria nicole cassadine. this just makes things all neat and tidy.
three before you even consider roleplaying, please post your application and wait to be accepted. whoa, wait, before you protest, it's short and easy. relax. we are also an original characters only site. you can always pick up a need for another roleplayer. to view those needs, please click here.
four here at screaming in the dark, we don't believe in a word count. mainly because lea is lazy and this is her site. so all we ask is that you try to match the posts of the person you're roleplaying with. that's not too much to ask is it?
five one thing that drives kay crazy is god modding. please please don't do it. for those of you who aren't quite sure on what it is, it's basically controlling someone else's character. just don't do it, please please please.
six almost done, sorry about this. please do not stretch the board, either with your signatures or posts. sigs should not be any wider than 500px. demi has spent over a bajillion days making this site pretty and would kill you if you ruined it now. if its over 500px wide, we can and will remove it, because demi can't be asked to wait for you to change it. avatars should be 150x200px. if you can't figure out how to make that, ask someone to make one for you. anything other than that will be removed.
seven finally, screaming in the dark is rated teen. proboards terms and conditions state that you should be over thirteen to sign up, so you should be able to handle any mature topics that happen. if not, don't join, simple. if you ignore this and sign up anyway, don't get offended if you read something you don't like. and please, if you're having a mature topic (i.e. sex) then please fade to black. we don't wanna get shut down.
thank you, we hope you enjoy your stay here at screaming in the dark. reading all of those wasn't too bad now, was it? :]
