rules

Don’t cross the IC/OOC line.
Don’t bully players IC or OOC.
If proof is provided of a player doing either of those things, they will be warned. If they do not change their behavior after the warning, they will be removed.

For some people, IC drama is fun. Don’t ruin other people’s fun by complaining about IC drama.
Don’t go overboard with the drama.
Please clear any major dramatic storylines (pregnancy, suicide attempts, rape, etc) with the moderators and take into consideration the “triggering” effects certain issues (self-injury, etc) may have on fellow players.

Adds and removals will be done every Wednesday evening and Sunday evening. Players whose journals will be at two weeks by the date of removals will be on the warning list, and if those journals are not updated by the date stated for next adds/removals, they will be removed.

Posts that contain only a youtube video, a block of song lyrics, or pictures will not be considered updates. We expect you to actually spend time writing, not making up excuses and using other people’s material to get away with it.

Hiatuses will last until the journal has reached four weeks. After the four week mark, your PB and credits will become available for someone else’s use.

When adds/removals are done, update your friendslist. No exceptions. This community is not a place for you to bring your PSL, and failure to update your friendslist will result in removal.

When applying, make sure that if your journal is from a previous game, you have removed the friends and communities from your friendslist. Failure to do this will result in rejection.

Journals must contain your character’s name only. No extraneous words, no x’s, and a minimum of underscores.

You must have an in-character screenname, containing your character’s name in some form. This is to be used for sceneing and in-character AIM activity, so make sure to sign on it occasionally. If you don’t want to download a program, use meebo or a similar website.

This game is faux-celebrity. For guidelines on how to create one, click here.

This game is about writing and character development. If you're looking to ship two pbs together and play out lovey-dovey romance lines with no substance, go somewhere else.

Because the game is about writing and character development, if you are not making an effort to comment and converse with people outside your character's circle of friends, we will remove you. We don't want to be the clique-y game no one feels welcome at.
