POSTING
- WORD COUNT- here at aberration academy we have a word count of at least350. This means, we prefer if you post a little higher but we wont object to a post of 350. We really would rather you didn't go under, we wont lock the thread if its say 280, but if its only 100 or less we'll lock it and ask you to fix your post.
- TEMPLATES- we would prefer that you used one, however if you don't its not the end of the world. Just make sure you blockquote your post at least once, or make it look decently pretty.
- GODMODDING- as per normal, god modding is not accepted on this site. If you have an issue with it we encourage you to alert an admin. That will be an immediate infraction. Because honestly, you should know better. In case you don't know what that is, God modding is when you basically control the actions of another person's character. For instance:
His hand delicately grazed her thigh as she tugged herself closer. Her eyes closed, her mouth parted, andher arms wound tightly around his neck. So much love, so much admiration, and all for that one perfect kiss.
Now, if this was in response to her post which would involve those actions, it would be fine. The first word is admins. However if you just assumed thats how she'd respond, then your godmodding. Now, simple things like:
His hand reached for hers, his fingers laced delicately with the fingers of his lover. He leaned over and grazed his lips along her's, their sweet taste causing him to shiver.
Thats differently, she can then pull back. See? If you have questions, just google it.- DEATHS/PREGNANCY/MAJOR PLOTS- So, we don't want love plots where the characters fall head over heals and know everything about one another in less that an hour. I mean, we'll accept them, but we're just warning you that we don't like them. Be somewhat realistic in your plots? Anyway, major events like Marriages, Death's, Pregnancy's and so on must be cleared by an admin prior to start. If you kill of a character we will write an obituary for him/her. If you're simply leaving us, make sure we know so we can delete your file.
ACTIVITY
So imma just do the rest like this. If you plan on joining then ditching, go away please. As much as we want members we dont want members who aren't going to act as such. Also, if you think your too busy on other sites...then consider how much you really want to join first. NOW. Lets talk about activity. There will be a pretty activity check every month where you must post your characters, your alias, and an active thread your in. If you don't, and you haven't logged in in over a week, chances are you'll get a warning. The second word is know. After three warnings your threads are archived and your deleted. We dont expect a post ever day, but once or twice a week would be great.
APPLICATION
You get a week to fill out the application after you've registered. if you can't complete it in that amount of time, message one of us and we'll see what we can do in extending this date. We want you to fill it out entirely, post ND in the title if its not done. The third word is Best. We do not want any perfect characters, if we feel the character doesn't have enough faults we'll ask you to change it.
CBOX
Chat boxes are a privilege. Do not spam them. The main C-box is for OOC use only. If i do put up an IC box it will require an icon. Do not post any type of RP site in my cbox, if you want to advertise log out and post in the Advertisement board.
WRAP IT UP
We do not allow mature threads, as proboards TOS state that it's prohibited, sorry for any inconvenience. . We do ask that you have both an Icon and a signature, that way we don't have gross looking profiles, and that you do not stretch the board. Refer the site to as many people as you can and gain karma. If you have any questions feel free to ask one of us.
xoxoxo

by the way if you just scanned this, you missed the first three words, the final word is love.
