RESPECTING MEMBERS AND STAFF
[1/0] This role-playing forum does not allow explicit images, and please keep your swearing to a limit. We do not want you to overuse swears, because it gets annoying. ( swearing is not allowed in ooc conversation! )
[1/1] Mini-moding is telling an admin, or demanding an admin/mod to do something. We encourage our members to use the 'report to a mod' button! Please refrain from adding comments moderators/global mods/admin such as, "Lock this thread.", "Ban this user.", "Delete this post.", etc.
[1/2] When posting a help thread/private-messaging an admin or moderator/global mod, please refrain from using tittles such "HELP ME." Try to use a more specific tittle, for example: "Help me, my signature is not showing up". -- Also remember to say please&thanks to people who try to help you. Refrain from using CAPS, too.
[1/3] The staff members on Vipercork have the right to delete posts, lock threads, or give out warnings. Do not complain about deleted posts, locked threads, warnings, bans, etc.
[1/4] Impersonating a staff member will automatically get you banned permanently from Vipercork.
[1/5] Public discussions of moderator or admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator or admin actions in titles, avatars, signatures, and the chat box. If you do not like something that a moderator or admin said/did, DO NOT discuss this in the forums. If necessary, PM or email the moderator or admin and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in a private manner.
[1/6] Please try not to type in ALL CAPS, because it is considered yelling, or Typ LiiK Diis or LyK Diz. Text-typing is not allowed on this forum, and we will appreciate it greatly if you used the spell-checker!
[1/7] If you have a complaint about another member, problems with other members, etc., please try to resolve the problem in a personal message. If necessary, address an admin or moderator by reporting their post.
[1/8] If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to one of Administrators. Repeating offenders will be banned from the forum, and further action may be taken against them.
GRAPHICS
[1/0] Please keep signatures under 530x530 pixels wide. Make sure your avatars or signatures don't stretch the board.g6
[1/1] Avatars/signatures should not contain any explicit content or foul language.
[1/2] Please make your signature and profile picture related to your character! No phrases, etc. Picture of your character.
ROLE-PLAYING
[1/0] We encourage our members to use search engines such as Google, Bing, etc, to research for role-plays. Your role-plays shouldn't contain content that aren't facts! Researching will help you out with your role-playing.
[1/1] Keep your swears to a limit when you are role-playing. Swears are allowed if they are not overused!
[1/2] Fade to black.
[1/3] We do not allow god-moding, which is controlling another person's character. You may only control your own characters. For example, if you are role-playing a girl named Marcy and another is role-playing with you a boy named Johnny, don't say "Marcy and Johnny walked up the hill.", because that is god-moding. Marcy is your character, Johnny is not.
[1/4] No power-playing, please. That is when you make your character 'perfect.' People have flaws, secrets, quirks, dislikes, etc.
[1/5] There is a post-counter and a post-count for the words in the role-plays only. You must have at least 115 words in your post, not including extras such as 'notes, outfit, etc'.
[1/6] Please post in your correct character account. That means, don't post in a different character's account if you are role-playing a different character.
[1/7] Your name should be displayed as: "FIRST MIDDLE LAST", all in capitals. No symbols please.
THE CHATBOX
[1/0] Please no advertising in the chatbox, and be nice. That means site rules apply.
[1/1] Please use an image in the chatbox!
ADVERTISING AND AFFILIATION
[1/0] We have an advertising&affiliation board. Please post in the proper sub-board and post in the code needed!
