Ninja Handbook (Rules)

1. Rules:
a. No one is above them. Especially by the Staff and Admins. Rules can be broken by staff members in very rare special conditions.

b. Everyone needs to obey these rules as they are the guidelines that keep role-playing fun. Play it nice, keep to the rules.

2. Harrassment:

a. Discrimination will not be tolerated in any way and is seen as a serious offense. Discrimination does not include refusing to RP with someone because you don't like them or the way they write. We're talking gender, race, etc,... here people.

c. Sexual harassment will not be tolerated either and is a serious offense. Action: Perma Ban
d. Flaming has to be kept to a minimum, try giving an educated argument instead of shouting vulgarity.

3. Respect:

a. In order to stop people from harrassing other people you'll have to respect all the other individuals on the site. I'm not asking for you to hug everyone and be best friends with everyone, but you yourself can decide to tolerate another person (If not, try to walk away instead of starting something). Might there be any issues, be sure to PM a staff member about it. Be sure not to be disrespectful to anyone however. Action: Warning, 3 hour Xat Ban, 6 hour xat Ban, Perma ban (In that order.)

4. Content:

a. Do not post links to adult content (Pictures, movies or sites). To eleborate on the term 'adult Content'; Porn, hentai or any of that kind of content. These can be posted in the mature board. This rule also goes for the xat. Action: Ban

b. Refrain from advertising other sites in any other place than the Advertisement board

Language:

a. Try to keep chat speak to a minimum. We like English. Action: Post deletion (staff discretion).

b. Don't go overboard with vulgarity. (3 warnings, then a 3 day ban)

c. Do not go around spamming, especially if it's in combination with advertisement. It's plainly retarded or/and annoying. (3 day ban)

5. Role-playing:

a. Do not God-mode, you can't control someone elses characters, meaning you can't control their actions and neither inflict damage on him or her directly. Wrong Example: "He pierced her chest." Good Example: "He attempted to pierce her chest, thrusting his sword towards her chest." (3 warnings, then 3 day ban)

b. Do not Meta-game, this means that your characters knows things he or she couldn't possibly have known. I.E Someone thats never fought a Uchiha before, instantly knowing how the Sharingan works. (3 warnings, then 3 day ban)

c. Do not Power-post, this means that you're constantly posting before your turn or to bump up your thread. It is acceptable to skip someones turn if it is taking them literally days to reply. (3 warning, then 3 day ban)

d. Third person Role-play, you should always Role-play in third person on this forum, as we do not support first person role-playing. (3 warnings, then 3 day ban.)

e. Personal issues towards someone need to be put aside while RPing, and outside of RPing. We don't like having to get involved in arguments, so please don't make us.

6. Profiles:

a. Do not Role-play before your profile has been approved by an official Staff member. (Warning, 3 day ban)

b. please refrain from posting in another members profile, only staff may post a review or helpful hint in them. We're sorry if this cramps any member's will to help, but it's a general politeness factor. (1 warnings, 3 day ban)

7. Language:

a. Sexual intercourse will not be allowed on the regular rp boards, if you wanna do it, do it via PM's or you can make and fade to the next day in an rp, leading everyone to assume you had sex. (3 day ban)

8. Have fun!
