CODE OF CONDUCT

STARTING
o. Register under your charrie's name. [i.e] Teddy Ruxpin. We don't like to see annoying names like [2]h@wt4 okay? But this is a literate site, so we should know that already.
o. Celebrities should match their age. Drew Barrymore can't portray a teenager, sorry. Alexis Bledel, Willa Holland, Mischa Barton. Yeah, those are acceptable. Just don't be using Amy Lee as a seventeen year old female, alright?
o. Each character automatically starts out with five hundred dollars. This will be added to your bank (located under your information sidebar) once you have been accepted. If you buy a horse or some other item, you are to fill that form out and admin will take away or add to your bank account. You have an allowance of 50 dollars a week if you don't have a job.
o. Know that once you've created a girl character, unless said otherwise by admin, you must create a boy charrie if you are to have two characters. This is to ensure that you will keep the gender ratios even. Please create seperate accounts for each character. I want ALL characters active. You may not create another character until you have posted at least 45 posts on each of your current character(s). These should be mostly in character threads. Thanks.
GENERAL
o. First and foremost, be respectful to admin. We brought you this site for you to enjoy, so please do so. All we ask is that you be respectful towards it's very existance, the Admin. The first word is goose.
o. I will explain briefly that Maybell (mb) Academy is a horse/human roleplaying site. There will be time for romance, relationship and etc, don't worry, but i'd like to keep it revolved around horses as much as possible.
o. Money; this will be used for various items, such as rent on your apartment, and horses. Horse feed, tack, supplies, clothing. It won't be too complicated, and you'll understand it very well once you get the hang of it.
OOC
o. We all know this rule, and find it easy to understand. No fighting out of character. This site is friendly and cordial, and I'd like to keep it peaceful, if you catch my drift. No fights, and prefferably not even over PM, capice?
o. Mild language and such is allowed, if you just can't contain yourself. But keep in mind that we have younger browsers on here sometimes, and we don't need to be explicit. The CBOX is for talking freely, so I have no objection to language in it, as it will block it out. But once again, please dont go overboard.
o. Don't spam up the cbox. Okay? This goes for advertising too. Links to your site are okay, but don't poke and prod people just to get them to click it, alright? It shouldn't be that hard, the cbox is for chatting and that's what you usualy do.
RATED R CONTENT
o. I do not allow sex on this site. I don't want to hear 'oh, it makes it realistic' because I'm positive we can go on about life in our teen years without having it. You can have past flings, but keep them in the past. I will make one acception, and that is this; you may have flings, and such, but they will just happen. There will be no post, and no detail. If you wish for a fling to take place, you must PM an admin about it. Once you get approval, you may say that it happened, just don't post it.
o. Reality isn't all about the rated R content. I don't want to see all the posts involving this sort of thing, okay? It doesn't make it fun for anybody else.
o. As far as kissing and all that goes, go for it. Just don't go overboard. Don't make a habit out of it, No detail, we don't want to know. Like I say, keep it PG for the younger browsers on here. The second word is rootbeer.
o. PG rated site. Mild language and adult content. Mild language is understandable, but don't go cussing somebody off. It's just not attractive to the site. I don't care how much fun it is. I don't see every other person in my city cussing somebody off because they spilt milk on them.
o. Don't go over board. There are censored words, as you will find, so you can post them. But just don't make a habit out of it.
OTHER
o. This is a literate site. This means I expect to see at least three paragraphs of post (or 500 words) , okay? And this is on an off day. Don't be posting one paragraphs. We understand writers block, we've all had it, but please understand when I say we all need something to work off of here. This means a minimum of 500 words. See that little word counter below the Posting button? It's there for a reason. Use it.
o. Your character can bring only one horse from home. This is realistic, we can't just get horses out of thin air. We must buy them or lease them, therefore, only one horse from home. Pets are allowed, but don't go overboard.
o. I don't want to see somebody come on every other week. Please try to keep as active as you possibly can, and we'll try to fit everybody into a plot!
o. Drama is good in character. So keep it in character. As said before, keep it as peaceful as possible OOC and In character, as rioted as you want. Please and thanks. The third word is ipod.
