ALL UPDATED RULES WILL BE IN BOLD, AND THEIR TOPIC HIGHLIGHTED AND UNDERLINED.
1. Be nice. I will not tolerate ANY really hot arguments. I mean, a little squabble is fine, but please refrain from too much crap. If you are indeed in a heated argument, Evie, Omi or Nathair will request that you take the argument elsewhere. Preferably PM. If you are requested to go over PM and you do not, One of the Administrators willl freeze your account for 24 hours. If we request that you leave a second time, and you still do not bow down to our actions, Not only will you be a putz, but you will be frozen for three days for disobeying an Admin.
Yup. Im sorry it has to be that way.
2. You can have your character in more than one place, but dont be in too many boards, please.
3. You actually do need to PM me or Evie if you want your Character to be A Vampire, Werewolf or etc.
4. Leave the General Board to General Discussion. The rest of the boards are for Roleplaying only.
5. Very little cursing is allowed. Not every other word.
6. No Mary-sue, Gary-sue, Terry-sue, Larry-sue or Sherry-sue![/color]
7. All posts must be at least 500 words. This is a LITERATE site, you know. If you do not have at least one detailed paragraph, we will inform you that you must make it longer. I know, it stinks. But we here at Sectumsempra would like to have fun. And fun doesn't mean two sentances. It means Descriptive, long sentances.
It was boring to say the least.
Throughout her recent and obtuse experience as an underground Order Member, Cassieopia Thurgoode had caught on after the first three days after her joining this club of ‘underground service to the light’, that their intentions of keeping her in for observation meant that she wouldn’t be allowed out of the building under any circumstances, for the rest of her able life.
It was as if she was the untrusting child, and they were the adults whom knew better. Because of her ‘past deeds’, they grounded their perceived little one from everything. Or it could be compared to a House Arrest. Yes, that one was more like it. Although, they were treating her like a little girl whom had no experience in the world whatsoever.
If only they had seen the things that she had seen. If they had experienced what she had experienced, they would understand and possibly worship the ground she walked on in a sorrowful remorse. But being understanding of their blatant misunderstandings, she remained quiet. Throughout her experienced years, Cassie has learnt to always be a patient one. It had always worked in the most extreme situations, including waiting in her rotten cell atop of that devastatingly torturous tower for years. And children, whom had no inkling of putting themselves into her shoes, would never break her calm. She just needed to give them some peace and quiet from her enraged mind… For now.
But until then, what was she to do? She was to lounge around of course, and possibly give some advice to a passing Order Member in need of help. It would most likely put the awkward hatred and suspicion that had accumulated towards her to be swept under the rug so to speak, if she were just a little helping hand gently pushing them towards the way to her favor. After all, laying around in St. Mungo’s was hardly placing her in any need of help, and damn it she was just plain bored. What was there to do in a broken down hospital? It was incredibly eerie, other than the Visitor’s Tea Room and Hospital Shop. It had tiny bobs and trinkets, not to mention tea, and loads of it. There was an occasional Coa-Coa pack in the Storage room, beside the coffee doodads. So, sugar was a definite yes.
Cassieopia has strolled her way in, her teal robes whisping, as her feet positively glided on the ground. Her mood wasn’t a good one, but to describe her walking, it was always of complete grace.
Her blond and long platinum hair flowed backwards in the motion of her body. She was barefoot, of course. It was comfortable, and laying in St. Mungo’s for weeks with nothing to do meant to stay as comfortable as possible no matter what. Even though she cursed her barefoot ideas once she stepped on some everyday shards of broken glass.
She was humming lightly, and holding a mug she had found sprawled across the Artifact...

That is exactly 500. And that is the minimum you can type, Capisce? It may seem like a bummer, but it makes roleplays more fun, and descriptive.
8. Don't disrespect the admin, please and thank you---we are your friiiiennnnds.
9. Change your display name to that of your characters.
10. NO KILLING WITHOUT PERMISSION
11. TO PLAY YOU MUST APPLY!
12. AND WHEN YOU'RE ACCEPTED, YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR AVATAR & SIGNATURE TO YOUR CHARACTER!
13. Sexual/Violent Lingo
Here at Sectumsempra, we are not here to restrict you of your roleplaying capabilities. You can put as many sexual things(as long as its classy) and Violence that you want!
HOWEVER.
If you do have any Rated "R" Content, we will inform you of such over PM, or if your Post was sought out to be Rated "R", please inform us on the Subject of your post. For example:
These days... [R]
14. BANNERS/GRAPHICS REQUESTS
Evie and I have decided to create a new rule including that you cannot make graphics for a character that is not accepted in Sectumsempra.
Meaning, that if you have a seperate character in a seperate site, but it is not accepted on Sectumsempra, then you may not request for graphics until that character is accepted.
The administrators are concerned with the time and preperation that it takes for banners, the Graphics-able members will not be able to reply to their character's posts as quickly. And that is a main problem, considering that it is a roleplay site.
Also, if you are using another graphics-able member's banner from Sectumsempra and posting it on an opposite site, there is a concern that the Banner will not get credit from the original designer.
If you still wish to request a banner for a character on an opposite site, then please PM the graphics members, and do not post on the boards.
All banner requests from a character that are not accepted on this site are right now, deleted and to not be considered.
15. Regarding Inactive members!
If you are inactive for more than two or three weeks (And it is NOT excused, meaning if you dont not post it on the boards or let the Admins know that you will be on leave) Your character will be headed straight to the Applications Archive, and your character will be deleted. This is for Activity purposes to benefit those whom want to play a particular Canon, espcially if that Canon is very important in the Sectumsempra plot. We need it to be fair game, and most likely can not wait for you to come back a month or two later.
Also, if someone else has taken your CANON character and you come back, you may not revive that CANON character. After all, you were gone without us knowing and we will assume that you up and left us.
Please, make sure if you want to keep your characters active, to let your administrators know.
Thanks!
If you read the rules (and hopefully you did) please post One of these code words on your Application if you are brand new. If you do not, we will assume that you have not read the rules, and we will not accept you until you put the code word in your applicatin, Capisce?
If you are indeed an Admin, you do not need to put a roleplay example or a Code word.
And thats it! PM me for any Questions of course. ^____^[/center][/size]
