✖ RULES
one. Three Houses does not have a specific roleplaying level. You can be a beginner, intermediate or advanced; it really doesn't matter-we'll welcome you with open arms in any case. However, please type respectfully and coherently and not like this: nd ah wuz liek totally nd e wuz l33t. <--props to anyone who understands that. If you can manage that, you'll be just fine.
two. Images may be no larger than 600 px wide. Any larger and they stretch the boards. Icons must be 100x100px wide and signatures 600x300 max.
three. Follow the common-sense rules of roleplaying. This means no God-moding/Power-playing, no chat speak when in character, ect.
four. Three Houses has an approximate board rating of PG-13 as per Proboards TOS, however some content needs to have a {MATURE} tag in the thread title. More specifically, if you intend for the thread to contain drugs that are not legal in the good old US of A, themes of suicide, loving beyond hugs and kisses, detailed blood and gore, swear every other word, or anything else that may be offensive to some folks, please mark it as {MATURE}. The act of sex, suicide, rape, and detailed murder are explicitly not allowed anywhere on Three Houses, including the PM system. If you want something similar to that, black it out or take it off site-no ifs, ands or buts. If any of these terms are violated, Proboards can shut Three Houses down for good and we'd rather that not happen, so please listen to these rules, mm'kay?
five. When creating a thread, please mark its privacy in the title. For example, if you're creating a thread that's open to everyone, put {open}. If you want people to ask before joining, put {semi-open} and if you want only a specific person put either {closed} or their name. (ex: {Closed; Xerxes} or simply {Xerxes}).
six. There is no word count on Three Houses but since we believe in karma, don't send a three sentence response when you're given a 6 paragraph post.
seven. One account per a character. This is mostly for organizational purposes. If you are creating a new character, simply sign up for an account under their name. Please make your display name in the format 'FIRST NAME LAST NAME'.
eight. There are no ooc accounts on Three Houses save those for staff.
nine. Use anime/manga style play-bys for your characters. Your play-by does not have to completely match your character's description detail for detail--particularly where hybrids and metalmen are involved. It is after all, hard to find pbs where your male character has butterfly wings or your female character has half her face covered in steel.
ten. Please don't use the same name as your play-by for your character. If you're having trouble making up names, ask some other members for help. They'll be happy to spam you with all the names your heart desires until you can find one that clicks.
eleven. You can have as many characters as you want. Be warned however: Should a character be inactive for more than a month they will be moved to the abandoned characters board.
twelve. Since the timeline on Three Houses is fluid, you can be in as many threads as you can handle but its up to you to decide the timeline. Should you get confused, notify a staff member and we'll see what can be done.
thirteen. And finally, as all RP's were made for, have fun!
