the site rules *
welcome to let the games begin!, a hunter games rp that takes place in panem. i know you just want to get to the actual roleplaying, but please take the time to just read (or skim over) these rules before starting. there's not many, don't worry.
one please please respect both the admins and the members of this site, regardless of whether you are a member yourself or just a guest who is stopping by. please don't start fights out of character, i'm sure everyone would like brand new eyes to be a fun and friendly place, not a living hell.
two when you register, you can sign up with any name you like, although upon setting up your profile, please change it to first middle last, all in lowercase. for example: ava jaymes quincy. this just makes things all neat and tidy.
three before you even consider roleplaying, please post your application and wait to be accepted. whoa, wait, before you protest, it's short and easy. relax. we're also a pre-canon site, so originals please!
four here at let the games begin!, we don't believe in a word count. mainly because rosebud is lazy and this is her site. so all we ask is that you try to match the posts of the person you're roleplaying with. that's not too much to ask is it?
five one thing that drives rosebud crazy is god modding. please please don't do it. for those of you who aren't quite sure on what it is, it's basically controlling someone else's character. just don't do it, please please please.
six almost done, sorry about this. please do not stretch the board, either with your signatures or posts. graphics should not be any wider than 550px. rosebud has spent quite a while making this site pretty and would kill you if you ruined it now.
seven finally, let the games begin! is rated pg-13. proboards terms and conditions state that you should be over thirteen to sign up. it also states that no adult content will be allowed. if you are confused on what this means, please send a message to an admin.
eight this is a little update on the rules. it makes rosy really uneasy when people try to cheat the games. this includes trying to get out early, trying to figure out what kinds of weapons there are, and what the arena is like. we will tell you what's going on with the games as they become pertinent. but if we give you information, we are going to swear you to secrecy. and if we learn or see you or your characters trying to get at secret information, we will take action and possibly even redo the whole arena to prevent people cheating the system.
-rosy has put a lot of work and detail into making the games work on the boards, and she would prefer that her work isn't in vain because so-and-so from district five didn't want to wait to see the arena and thus interrogated an avox to get the information. if that happens, rosy will be pissed, for one, and for another thing IT IS AGAINST THE TREATY OF TREASON AS IT STANDS ON THIS SITE.
-if you are caught in chat or thread trying to weasel information about the arena and games, your character(s) will be withdrawn from the games, your status (if on staff) will be revoked, and the arena or weapons will be completely reformulated.
----in other words: NO SPOILING.
-oh, and rosy doesn't care what character it is or what district they're from. this is a blanket rule.
thank you, we hope you enjoy your stay here at let the games begin!. reading all of those wasn't too bad now, was it? :]
happy hunger games! and may the odds be ever in your favor!
