Roleplay Guidelines
Posting Guidelines
Rules that MUST be followed
1. No Powerplaying.
The only person that can control a character is its creator and writer. Please don't control another persons character or you will be warned.
2. No Godmoding.
Please keep in mind that most of the characters here are Senshi. But NOT all of them so Careful with your characters if your character is To Powerful you may be removed....
3. Keep the writing clean.
We expect decent grammar and spelling at all times. A big part of roleplaying is the mastery of the English language and creativity. This can't be well expressed with netspeak, especially when there are members from other countries that may or may not understand what it means. (Make Use of the Built in Spell Check...)
4. Relations to canon characters.
You must have the Characters Permission if someone is playing one or both of the parents. Period without their Approval the Character will not be approved.
5. Number of accounts.
Everyone is allowed one account only!
Things that are Highly Recommended
1. Writing style.
We recommend using third person, past tense book style while roleplaying, as it is the easiest to read and respond to. It also is the easier format to have nice descriptions in. But we will allow other styles as long as they are understandable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Book style:
Kaela steadily made her way down to the Head Table in the Great Hall. She nodded at the Potions Professor, the only other adult present and greeted him with a lively, "Good morning Professor!" and found her way to her seat. She let her green eyes scan the remainder of the hall and frowned slightly as she saw it to be mostly empty. It must be early still.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asterisk style:
*Kaela steadily made her way down to the Head Table in the Great Hall and nodded to the Potions Professor, the only other adult present.*
"Good Morning Professor!"
*Her green eyes inspected the entire Hall and her face frown just a little when she realized that it was mostly empty*
It still must be a bit early.
------------------------------------------------------------------
There are more styles that exist, mostly variations of the ones described here, but these two are the most commonly used. All we ask is that you make yourself readable to everyone and pick one style and stick to it.

Posting Guidelines
Well here are a few Guidelines to go by when you are Roleplaying.
1. Make decent posts TRY not to do one sentence posts...(Try very hard!!) We would like to see at least 5 sentences per post. You will be rewarded by others for they will wish to post more with you if you do..
2. If you play more then one Character State Clearly who is saying and/or doing what in your post so the others in that thread with you know who and what to do.
3. Keep Out of Character talk to minimum if you just have to do so put it in a form such as (Ooc: Yada Yada) thats just an example but most commonly used. Do not make a Whole post of nothing but (OOC:) in the middle of a Roleplay its unsightly as well as annoying to those actually Roleplaying in that thread. So if you need to (OOC:) in more detail take it to the Chat Board or PM (Private Message).
4. Try to keep things clean. If you are doing a Gore like thread Put a Warning in the Subject title so others know before they start reading the thread.
