RULES & REGULATIONS
Like all sites, No Way Out has rules to be stuck to. Some will be familiar to old school role-players, but please give them a read anyway!
001 REGISTERING. As this is a proboards site you can register with whatever username you like - however here we ask that you register with your alias for your animator account and your characters first name for your ic account, it makes tagging much easier for everyone. If someone has already claimed that name, use the first name plus your surname initial - for example JohnG. Once you have registered change your display name to your desired character's first and last name all in CAPS. You can add your character's middle name if you'd like. Your option.
002 CREATING YOUR CHARACTER. We don't have an application, more of a form. Just fill that out and you're on your way. Each member is allowed up to ten characters, if you want more after that you must buy a character slot. We are LGBTQ friendly and encourage variety in your characters!
003 Once your account has changed colour, you're good to post everywhere else. Maybe start with a plotter?
004 RESPECT. Please do respect everyone here on the site. Don't go mocking members OOC or taunting them either. You may do that while roleplaying but not outside of.
005 GRAPHICS. Each animated character MUST be represented by a living person and a person only. No cartoon characters to represent cartoon characters, that would be silly. There are loads to choose from, your list is not restricted. Please don't steal graphic from other sites.
006 GRAPHIC SIZES. Please upload a normal 150x150 proboards avatar - gif or images are allowed. From there you have a hover image (250x350) of your character - please do not use a gif for this image. For your ooc account the images can be anything you like - though no nudity or explicit content - and again please don't make the hover image a gif. Just because big gifs are sometimes slow and ugly and take a while to load.
007 ADVERTISING. There is an advertising forum on here. Guest friendly. So in return, we ask that you DO NOT advertise anywhere else other than in those forums. This includes in the cbox.
008 CBOX. Don't create trouble on the cbox. It's a place where you can chat nicely with everyone. No swearing or cursing on there. Keep it PG, yo!
009 RATING. This is a literate site. We have no word count - but that doesn't mean you can get stingy if people give you longer replies. Try and match up where possible. It's no fun writing a 700+ reply to get a paragraph back.
