Welcome to Muggles with Magic, a new site for Harry Potter lovers and RPers! Now before you create your character, you must drink in the rules below because they are your guidelines, your regulations so that you don't get banned from Hogwarts or this site. At a start of each new rule, the main part of the rule will be bolded, so you can just read that. A password is located in them too so that you can fill out your character application completely! Also, the password will not be necessarily located in the BOLDED words. So make sure you read everything carefully before heading on over to the CHARACTER APPLICATIONS
xxxMAIN RULESxxx 1. SWEARING: Keep swearing to minimum. If somehow, you REALLY need to swear, you can, but other than that, DO NOT swear.
2. Keep it PG-13 Don't talk about inappropriate things. If you need to, please put a [M] next to your thread title so people know that it's Mature.
3. Show some kindness Don't criticize others unless you have to. You may, obviously, in RP. But in general, DO NOT.
4. No god-moding. No god-moding. This is where in role play, you control other character's doings and sayings. Please do not do that. If we catch you doing it often, then you will have a warning. If you ignore us and continue to do it, you will be expelled.
5. Obey the staff I know this can be a bit unfair, but if a final desicion is made by me or another staff member, then that's that. No more fighting, bickering, whatever. That's it.
xxxOTHER RULESxxx
6. Signature/Avatar Sizes Signatures should not be over 470x300 pixels for it would stretch the page if it is more. Avatars should not be over 100x100 pixles either.
7. Be literate people! Because this is not a one-liner RP, all posts must at least fill up the "quick reply box" at the bottom of each thread. NO ONE LINERS
8. No power-play Remember: Nobody is perfect, so you cannot have a perfect character. Any "perfect" characters will not be accepted.
9. Your application MUST be accepted first before RPing! Your character application must be accepted before making any posts. If we catch you making a thread/post without your application being accepted, it will be automatically deleted.
10. Your display name = character's real name Make sure your display name is a real name! It cannot be like "Hpluver89". It should be like "Hannah Jenkins", or 'Kelsy".
11. 1 character per account. Unlimited originals, up to 2 canons. For every 2 girls, the next has to be a boy character. Now I've been thinking about this, and you may have more than one character, and now it is unlimited! However, you can only have up to two canons. UNLIMITED ORIGINALS. 11a. You must have a seperate account for each character. 11b. All of your multiple characters may not be on the Quidditch team. This is so spots may still be open for people who don't have multiple characters. 11c. For every 2 girls you make, the next HAS TO BE A BOY. (Or your character will not be accepted)
12. Stay active for at least 1 week after joining or your account will be deleted! This is very important: If you join and appear inactive for one week, without letting me know, you will be deleted/expelled. This is so our forum is much more neater and organized, so when you join, make sure you are active for at least a week. That is, create a character or something.
13. We encourage creativity in threads, but make sure it makes sense! I will allow very creative threads, but make sure that they follow the plot and actually make sense. So no running away from giants in the middle of the Forbidden Forest because how the heck did giants even get there? You may have getting attacked by merpeople though, in the black lake with gillyweed in your mouth since merpeople live there.
14. No confusing relationships when creating characters. When you make your character, remember one thing: You cannot be related to anyone too confusing. Like you can't be the son/daughter of Dumbledore or Voldemort or Tom Riddle's brother or whatever. That would mean a lot of things affecting the series and in Voldemort's case, the Slytherins.
15. Check and fill out the SPECIAL APPLICATION thread first before going off to RP as a veela or a werewolf or something. When filling out your character application thread, there will be an option that asks you if you have a special power of some kind for your character. If you check yes, you MUST then fill out a SPECIAL POWER form BEFORE RPING. The special ability thread link can be found to the side, underneath Portkeys.
16. Advertise in the correct spot - no random advertising in posts. No advertising randomly in posts! Unless you are told to do so, or unless you post at the correct board (in this case, the Floo Network board), you cannot ADVERTISE! Oh unicorn tails (<-- password), right? You may, however, put the link or banner in your signature or avatar, but THAT'S IT.
Thank you for reading the rules and did you find the password? Hopefully you did or you have to reread it again until you do
- Canons... If you want a canon, take a look at the canon thread. Then post a biography on the canon at THE CORRECT BOARD (students go to Student Applications and adults go to Adult Applications) board so it can be looked at.
- Term length. One term is two months, or eight weeks.
- Where to sign-up for Quidditch: Quidditch sign-ups are located at the Student Applications board.
- Activity Check notices There will be monthly Activity Checks, just to delete the inactive accounts so they don't wreck the internet space. So stay active if you, obviously, want to stay!
Next you go to CHARACTER APPLICATIONS to create your CHARACTER! Any more questions, pleaseCHECK HERE That is the Muggles With Magic Handbook, a guide that contains numerous staff contacts and FAQs. Any questions not on the handbook may be PMed to a staff. [/blockquote]
