THE RULES
registering; when registering for the site please register with a name you will remember, we suggest the first name of your character. its easier that way, or if you have more then one use your alias then the number character this is. speaking of numbers, we now have a limit on characters you can make. we would like for you to keep it to a maximum of ten characters. when posting your application we cant stress, please post with the proper heading or it will be denied. when posting an application please give the admin's at least twenty-four hours to get to it. do not pester us, please and thank you.
characters; please when joining, we would like it if all characters were 18 +. it makes it easier since we do not have a high school board, and all of our members and characters are over that allotted age. i understand if this is a stupid rule but its my rule, sorry. please be sure that the moment you are accepted you post in the claims, it is crucial that you do that. there is a limit to how many characters you can play, 10 per member. we used to have a two girls = 1 boy rule but i deleted that cause not all people can play boys.
activity; once your application has been accepted it is required that all claims be made and members start role playing. activity is crucial to make a site succeed so please post. the admin's do check how active their members are and that does not mean signing in then signing out. we require that at least two posts be made a week by a member to be considered active. we cannot have someone hogging up a play by. its simple, stay active and stay a member. we will be monitoring how active you keep your characters. we don't have a word count here but that doesn't mean you can make one sentence posts, please try to match what your role playing with.
ratings; we do not want the site to get iced due to lack of following the proboards rules. with that said, we all know the proboards rules of conduct so please follow them. if your character is planning on getting pregnant / dying please let the admin know. we have the right to approve and deny any type of major plot like that. if your characters are getting married, or having more children please let us know! when pregnant, a character cannot just fast forward they must stay pregnant for the full nine months.
face claims; we do not accept any type of e-star such as lauren cyrus and freida rose. sorry, its just not going to work. we will accept models such as victoria's secret models, but no models that no one really knows about, it just confuses and makes it harder to make graphics. as for graphics, please do not stretch the boards. your signature can consist of images of your choice but nothing inappropriate. as for board images, do not stretch them, the image will be removed. be sure that if your play by is a twin to let the admins know so we can notify it on the claim board! we hold reservations in the face claim for three days. please try to match the pb's real age by three years. if you use miley cyrus and make her a twenty seven year old woman it will be denied, sorry.
respect; we have a zero-tolerance policy. if you do not respect the admin and the members of this site you are gone. PLEASE CREDIT ALL THAT YOU TAKE. we do not tolerate any type of bullying, it is as plain and simple as that. please respect the rules of the site, it takes a lot of time for us to actually sit down and to type all these things up, and i'm sure there are plenty of things we forgot, but please do not ignore them it's just rude. any type of graphic that needs to be credited, please please please credit it! if we find anyone stealing it will result in a ban from the site and a character deletion. disrespect and theft are not tolerated here at this site so don't do it. cbox also falls under respect. do not bash the site, the members or the admin. we have the right to take away the cbox as well as the ic cbox, so just don't ruin it for the whole site.
thanks; if you took the time to read the rules, thank you and welcome to the site. if you simply skimmed over and are just reading this last paragraph lets hope you are ready to try and impress the admin because the rules are something we take very seriously here. any questions pm lauren and an answer will be to you within 24 hours! we are a family here at nlf and we are here to help with any problems you have, hope you enjoy your time with us! xo
