THESE ARE THE SITE RULES
RULE 06. RATING
This is a site rated PG13, because Proboards says so! This means no smex to your rock and role. Please take this seriously. If we see you trying to get away with something that is not considered PG13 by Proboard's standards, we will give you a warning. If you continue to do it, we'll have to ban you from the site, and no one wants that.RULE 07. CBOX
In case we don't have cbox rules posted along side of it on another skin, I want to give you a run down here. Don't be a prick to people, don't advertise, don't roleplay, don't nag for posts, and don't pretend to be another member when you're not. Cboxes are a fun way to chat with other members and feel like a community, to make friends and everything, so please don't abuse it.RULE 08. LITERACY
Here at GITS, we prefer if you are literate. Know the difference between 'to', 'two', and 'too', for instance. We'd also like you to use spell check. Please use spellcheck. A few mistakes here and there won't be cause for alarm, but if you're messing up every other word, then we might have to have a chat. It's hard to roleplay if you don't know what you're reading, after all.RULE 09. FACES
Face claims must be from a videogame, anime, manga, or fanart from a movie or show.RULE 10. HAVE FUN!
Roleplaying is fun and should always be fun! Enjoy your stay here at GITS; we'd be happy to have you.RULE 01. RESPECT
Don't be a douche! Be nice to your fellow members and be nice to your admins, and they will be nice back to you. If they are not nice back to you, and for no good reason, are just being jerkfaces, then go talk to an admin and we'll sort it out and shoot em. I mean, uhm.. bat them with, ah, newspapers. Yes.. rolled up news papers. Please come to us first if someone is hostile; don't be hostile back to them, cause then it could turn into a 'he said, she said' deal and we don't really want that, cause who the eff knows, in the end.RULE 02. ACCOUNTS
This is a one-character-per-account site, so you make a new account for every character. Please have your display name as your character's name, or title, in all lowercase. IE "high king cyril caeric". Back to characters, there is no limit on how many you can make, but if your first two characters are male, then your second must be female. That way, we can have at least some sort of balance between the two.RULE 03. WORD COUNT
Here at GITS, we have no exact word count. However, please write more than a sentence. Seriously. Aim for about 100 words each post, or more. More is always good; 100 words just gets threads going more quickly c:RULE 04. MARY SUES
Avoid them like the plague. Definition.RULE 05. BEING A DIETY
Without permission from another player, do not ever godmode. Here is a definition of such a thing, if you need one. Basically, it's being a giant prick. So please dont. c: THE MEMBER GROUPS
GOVERNMENT
In Arcasius, the government not only makes up the royal family, but also those who work closely with them. This includes stewards, personal bodyguards, royal tutors, caretakers, et cetera. Those working for the royal family can easily be loyal to the resistance, but they will still be under the Government group unless they quit, or run away.
MILITARY
Soldiers, guards, naval captains--they all fit under the military group. If you'd like to command a fleet of ships against pirates at the bay, you're Military, love. While these people aren't necessarily loyal to the king, they are not usually Resistance, instead keeping to their own. You will always find a comrade here.
CITIZEN
If you do not work for the king, or the military, you will likely be a normal citizen. These folk will make up the bulk of the site, so don't worry if they have a few extra members than everyone else. Citizens are scholars, pie-makers, factory workers, entertainers. Citizens include upper, middle, and lower classes. A beggar would be considered lower class.
RESISTANCE
The resistance is a growing organization against the king. Now with the aid of the oldest princess, they seek to take over the throne completely, not only knock the king off of it. For the most part, they are bleeding hearts that believe in peace and happy lives of the Arcasien people. Of course, there is always the occasional member that just wants to knock some royal heads in.
OUTLAW
Not all lawbreakers are outlaws, and sometimes, outlaws are innocent. But to keep it simple, if you make your living by shooting people or stealing crap, you're an outlaw, plain and simple. You may be a foreigner escaping political persecution, or a citizen on the run for treason, or maybe you're a pirate that enjoys the whole thing. Either way, you're an outlaw, so welcome to the club! We have the best drinks.
