{ the rules }

REGISTERING

Join with your characters first middle
and last name in all lower case
letters. IE: peter benjamin parker

If you make a mistake, just PM an
admin and we'll fix you right up. DO
NOT post anywhere on the boards until
your application has been accepted.
This includes games and OOC boards.


FACE CLAIM

Your chosen face MUST be age
appropriate. We will tell you if it's
not and in extreme cases (like if
you're being a stubborn person) we
will deny your app. Understand right
now that no one under the age of 21
will be running a record label or have
any major position of power within a
label. If you want any label staff
with power, pick a face that's old
enough. This rule is not negotiable.

We also have NOT banned any faces -
but be forewarned if we get flooded
with a bunch of Disney/Scene/Deviant
Art faces, we will change this rule in
a heartbeat. Cause we're admins. And
we can do that.


YOUR CHARACTER

He or she should be unique. Meaning
they were made just for our universe.
No repeating faces or taken names.
If they have a sibling on board -
MATCH THEIR BIOS. No one is perfect,
therefore Mary-Sues are forbidden.
Overly fucked up characters with every
problem in the world is also
forbidden. No God-moding either, but I
bet you already knew that.

You may have more than one character
if you like - but we ask that ONE:
they belong to different member
groups. TWO: You can keep them all
active. And THREE: Your personal
gender ratio is even.

We are not afraid to reject your app if
you half-ass it. Put your best foot forward
and we'll recognize your hard work, babe.


RATING

This board is RATED R. Bring all
the cussing, sex, drugs, rock, rap and
scandal you can think of. All we ask
is your drama stays in-character. We
love you, but we do not want any soap
opera blow outs in the CBOX. And if
you're gonna write smut put a warning
somewhere. PLEASE. Before you get
all hot and graphic, okay? ASU ain't a
porn site.


POSTING

WE HAVE A 300 WORD MINIMUM PER POST.
At ASU we tend to go above and beyond
that on the regular. If you can't
handle that, then this game isn't for
you. Be active. If you can't be active
- don't join. It's that simple. All
posts should be in 3rd person, past
tense. We will warn you directly if
you break this rule. GRAMMATICAL
ERRORS AND BAD SPELLING ARE
THE DEVIL. Spell check 'til you see purple.


GRAPHICS

Avatars are to be no larger than 150 x
200. When it comes to signatures -
stretch the board and we will ask you to
change it.

Also - if you can't make graphics to
save your life, an admin or mod here
will gladly made a set for you if you
ask nicely.


RESPECT EACH OTHER

ASU will not - under any circumstances
- tolerate out-of-character drama.
This is a new day for ASU. If you act
like a brat, offend anyone, slander their
name and/or create problems for another
member, mod or admin, we will contact
you. If we can't talk it over or work
it out like mature individuals, then
sorry. Have a nice life in another
game, because we will ban you.
Everyone RPs to have fun, not to stir
up drama. Take it elsewhere. Oh, and
yo, please put 'sweet december' in
your application. K? Thx.


FINALLY, RESPECT ASU STAFF

Respect us and we'll respect you. Get
ugly with us and we'll get ugly with
you. It's called reaping what you sow.
Admins have the final say. On everything.
We're all nice people, but if you push us,
we will push back. And if you don't like
how we do it - cry us a river. Timberlake style, yo.
